Jefferies reiterates an 'Underperform' on Research In Motion Ltd. (NASDAQ: RIMM) price target of $5.00 (from $10.00).
Analyst, Peter Misek, said, "Despite having already pre-announced partial FQ1 (May) results, RIM managed to continue its string of negative surprises. The FQ1 $(0.37) loss and $2.8B revenues were worse than expected. Most importantly, the launch of BB10 was delayed until CQ1:12. We continue to believe that RIM is unlikely to be acquired before BB10 launches and reiterate our rating."
Misek also expects the company to start burning through cash as a huge product pothole in the second half of 2012 pressures margins and additional subscribers. Lowering estimates: FY13 from $0.90/$15.3B to $(1.86)/$10.3B.
