Company Report

BlackBerry’s Streamlined Portfolio Is Set for Organic Growth, Margin Expansion, and Cash Flow

We believe BlackBerry offers investors a solid small-cap software opportunity with an attractive market niche. We like BlackBerry’s portfolio focus on two core competencies: secure embedded software for vehicles and secure communications software for regulated industries and governments. These are both relative low-revenue niches of the market, but with solid growth runways and strong incumbency for BlackBerry. We also like BlackBerry’s newfound emphasis on operating efficiency, profitability, cash flow, and shareholder returns.
