Stock tumble is an opportunity...buy more!!

You've got $5.92 per share in just cash and equivalents. 3.1 Billion divided by 524 million shares.
Throw in net 2.2 billion in property, plants and equipment and you get pretty close to where the share price is now.
Everything else: worldwide NOC, patents, QNX businesses and a growing BB10 handset business (see double digit revenue growth last quarter alone) is all essentially free at this price.
Edit: plus patents, which are anybody's guess.peter9477 likes this.06-30-13 12:16 AMLike 1 - Blackberry has taken the best device strategy available to them. Hi end BB10, low end 7. Nokia has better range with asha and $20 phones. And android's fragmentation addresses this in an odd way.
They can't fight the phone and tablet battle. They don't have the firepower. They are having a lot of mishaps.
Last thing we need is silence. I hope official communication is persistent.06-30-13 12:18 AMLike 0 - Blackberry has taken the best device strategy available to them. Hi end BB10, low end 7. Nokia has better range with asha and $20 phones. And android's fragmentation addresses this in an odd way.

- Thanks for the reply, but all I'm going to say in response is that a turnaround doesn't happen on a dime.
The posted loss was expected, as is the upcoming one, but that's called an investment, in my books...the return is going to be in subsequent quarters.
Just wait...07-01-13 02:45 PMLike 0 - I'm sorry loss expected or not - the phones aren't selling because they are not desirable. If you can't sell your product to enough people then you are in deep trouble. They didn't even try and offer any glimmers of hope in the next few quarters. They don't have any large DOD contracts lined up nor are the carriers likely to buy units for very much longer. No one want to buy a product that has lost its mojo. Advising people to buy is inadvisable. The SP will go lower - much lower. A buyout is about the only option to regain some losses at this point. That's the news I'll be looking for before I decide to buy back in.
Posted via CB1007-01-13 03:22 PMLike 2 - Here's how I'm thinking...I bought in at 14.90 per share a few months back, and if I buy an equal share amount at 10.46 a share, I average my buy-in price in the middle.
I am no Wall Street expert, but I DO believe that bbry will rebound in the long term...and will do very well, at that!
People can quote analysts and experts all they want, but nobody knows what's going to happen 6 months from now, or even 3 months from now...the smartphone market is simply too volatile.
I think it's unfair that people are blasting bbry at this point, simply because the company has spent so much money on the BB10 launch, that it will take 2 or 3 quarters to recover that investment. Let's not forget how the stock shorts have sabotaged (yes, I say sabotaged, because that's what it is) the company and the stock price because they got it wrong and would lose tons of cash as a result.
The US carriers and stores have clearly been anti-blackberry, and it shows. As far as I'm concerned, it's Blackberry who needs to start a few lawsuits, not the other way around.
I'm a user and an investor, and I see great things from this company. I'm convinced now is a time to buy, not sell...things are turning around.
Just my. 02
Contrary to what you think the market is valuing BB correctly. When BB was at its all time peak that was also right given their growth. Now there's no growth to speak of. People brag about the 3b in cash as if its their money, thats shareholders money not yours.07-01-13 03:35 PMLike 0 - And once again, anyone who disagrees with your point of view is a troll.
Never gets old for you, does it!07-01-13 08:26 PMLike 0 - But she isn't disagreeing with an opinion necessarily, she is simply not telling the truth.
"Now there's no growth to speak of"
They grew both revenues and unit sales in this last quarter, despite it being very much a transition quarter. They did this while building their cash pile.
Rather impressive.07-01-13 08:35 PMLike 0 -
I don't think this stock has worthwhile value above $5 right now and will revise this figure down with time. As with Nortel, what shows in the financial statement has a strange way of changing in a big way in a very short period of time. The only dfference right now is that RIM is not loaded down with debt. Like Nortel, they still don't have a profitable business and there is no eveidence that the situation is about to change any time soon.07-01-13 08:36 PMLike 0 -
RIM and TH are proving to be less than forthcoming or open about their business which is a very bad sign in a publicly traded corporation. That is why I and probably a lot better qualified people will give a target share price a lot lower value than current market price or even reputed "book value".07-01-13 08:50 PMLike 0 - No. What was quoted was from the released finanncial statements. Unfortunately, financial statements have been proven to be less that factual or perhaps more generously less than useful in evaluating the current state of a business as numerous recent major business and bank scandals and bankruptcies have proven.

Yes, what was quoted was fact because it was from the financial statements.... so.... he was right...
Both revenues and device sales grew. The definition of growth.07-01-13 09:32 PMLike 0 - It is a risky buy right now because it is unclear if folks will buy blackberries in large nunbers. I'm long bbry and not really considering selling my shares for ten dollars. but I know my money is at risk.
folks should take some comfort that the cash reserves grew thus quarter. and the cash flow from operations would have been nice for a company with twice its market cap. but nothing will make up for lack of sales if consumers don't buy the q10 and q5. those need to sell much more than the z10 has so far.

The best time to sell a stock is when everyone is in love with it and falling over themselves to buy it, making the price rise rapidly.
...or buy low, sell high. OP is right, now is time to buy, if you want to buy. Now is not the time to sell.07-01-13 10:34 PMLike 0 - Or loose more money...

You have the choice to either contemplate my opinion, or to argue against it...but, as it all stands...a forum is a place for the exchange of ideas...not financial advice.

Or isn't it also common for the sort of thing that just happened to result in an overreaction in the market, so that it's actually more likely that it will bounce back slightly in the short term?
Edit: I see dusdal already mentioned the "priced-in" part of this. I guess if we'd both read the earlier part of the thread I wouldn't have had to answer, and you wouldn't have had to ask. ;-)dusdal and BlackistheBerry like this.07-02-13 07:57 AMLike 2 -

It's only 'more likely' as that's how the market is viewing it. If sales improve of bb10 devices then yes stock in theory will rise, but I will tell you now if they make a loss and device sales don't pick up then the whole 'priced in' drop is gonna look very shallow.
