BlackBerry has reported fourth-quarter and full-year 2026 results, swinging to a profit of US$24.3 million quarterly and US$53.2 million annually, compared to a US$7.4 million loss previously.

BlackBerry renewed and expanded its secure communications partnership with the Government of Canada, extending deployment of its SecuSUITE and UEM platforms across federal operations. The company's QNX division posted record revenue with 20% year-over-year growth.
