Long-term Bet on BlackBerry Due to QNX

BlackBerry BB should be a long-term bet in my opinion becaue of it QNX operating system in robotics: BlackBerry QNX, a division of BlackBerry Limited, develops and licenses a Unix-like, microkernel-based real-time operating system (RTOS) primarily for safety-critical embedded applications. QNX software powers more than 275 million vehicles worldwide as of late 2025, with market leadership in automotive operating systems estimated at around 35-38% share in recent analyses. It holds strong positions in infotainment, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), digital cockpits, and is expanding into robotics, industrial automation, medical devices, and physical AI. In fiscal 2026, the QNX segment achieved record revenues, with Q4 revenue of $78.7 million (up 20% year-over-year) and a royalty backlog reaching approximately $950 million. BlackBerry raised its fiscal 2027 QNX revenue guidance to $295-312 million following strong first-quarter performance of about $72 million (up 26%). The platform emphasizes functional safety certifications such as ISO 26262 ASIL D and IEC 61508 SIL 3.
