Simply Wall St · 1d ago
  • BlackBerry Limited recently set out its calendar for upcoming earnings releases through fiscal 2027 and continued to brief investors on third-quarter fiscal 2026 performance, reinforcing its role as a regular updater of operational progress.
  • At the same time, fresh attention on BlackBerry’s QNX Sound in luxury electric vehicles and its cybersecurity positioning underscores how the company’s software remains embedded in both automotive cabins and enterprise protection systems.
  • We will now examine how this renewed focus on QNX Sound in electric vehicles influences BlackBerry’s broader investment narrative for investors.

What Is BlackBerry's Investment Narrative?

To own BlackBerry today, you really have to believe in its shift from legacy hardware to a focused software story across automotive and cybersecurity, supported by a business that has only recently turned profitable. The latest QNX Sound attention in luxury EVs fits that thesis neatly, but it is unlikely on its own to move the near term financial dial, at least until it translates into clearer QNX revenue momentum against the FY 2026 guidance. The more immediate catalysts still look like execution on that guidance, proof that earnings quality is improving after past one off items, and whether management can justify a very rich earnings multiple despite low current return on equity. Against that, competition in both automotive software and enterprise security, plus a history of volatile returns, remain front of mind risks.

However, one key risk around BlackBerry’s premium valuation deserves closer attention from investors. BlackBerry's shares have been on the rise but are still potentially undervalued. Find out how large the opportunity might be.
