The company has reported a 36% decline in its revenue to $2.7bn for the quarter, compared to $4.2bn for the same period last year.
BlackBerry said the revenue breakdown for the quarter was about 61% for hardware, 36% for service and 3% for software and other revenue.

BlackBerry shipped about six million smartphones and around 370,000 PlayBook tablets in the quarter.
BlackBerry president and CEO Thorsten Heins said that the company returned to profit in the quarter due to the changes it implemented over the past year.
