Research in Motion’s fourth quarter and full fiscal year figures are due on Thursday (Friday Australian time), with analysts expecting more bad news from the BlackBerry maker.
According to BGR, Barclays Capital has written a note to investors about poor sales of BlackBerry 7 devices, with revenue projections lowered as a result.
The news comes after data released late last week showed Apple overtaking BlackBerry in shipments to Canada.
However, RIM hopes that it can reignite developer interest in its platforms by handing out prototype BlackBerry 10 smartphones during the company’s BlackBerry Jam developer conference in May.
