救命钱终于凑齐，黑莓暂时可以喘口气了 - 黑莓 - IT资讯救命钱终于凑齐，黑莓暂时可以喘口气了
在加拿大枫信金融控股公司收购黑莓的计划流产之后，该公司答应将为处于绝境中的黑莓提供十亿美元的“救命钱”。周三，黑莓宣布这笔重要的融资已经完成。
根据黑莓提交的监管文件，十亿美元的融资中，将近一半来自两个主要的投资机构：加拿大安大略省Richmond-Hill当地的“Canso投资委员会”提供了三亿美元，枫信金融公司（黑莓最大的单一股东）提供了2.5亿美元。
据报道，枫信金融和其他投资人，在未来的30天之内，还可以购买价值2.5亿美元的附息债券，另外这些债券还可以按照每股10美元的价格，购买黑莓的股票。
除了上述两家大投资人之外，Mackenzie金融公司旗下的基金投资了两亿美元，来自中东国家卡塔尔旗下的主权财富基金，投资了一亿美元，另外来自美国弗吉尼亚州的Markel公司提供了7000万美元，加拿大多伦多市Brookfield资产管理公司提供了1000万美元。
另外，Manulife金融公司旗下的基金，决定购买价值7000万美元的黑莓可转换债券，这些债券在符合一定条件下，可以转换成黑莓股票。
此前，由于枫信金融公司未能够筹集到足够的资金，其宣布取消了47亿美元的并购黑莓的计划，而黑莓也宣布，未来将不再寻求转让公司，而将继续作为一家独立的上市公司实施重振计划。黑莓还找来了号称“救火队长”的华裔职业经理人程守宗。
美国媒体指出，这十亿美元将是黑莓的救命钱，将帮助该公司实施重振计划。黑莓此前已经宣布，未来将逐渐放弃消费者手机业务，专攻自己擅长的企业和政府手机市场。而程守宗担任临时CEO之后，他宣布未来重点将会放在软件和服务上，因为黑莓在智能手机市场已经没有市场优势和地位。总而言之，黑莓未来是否能够起死回生，将值得关注。
另外，IDC日前发布的三季度全球智能手机市场报告显示，黑莓成为市场最大的输家，其三季度手机出货量暴跌了四成，全球出货量份额只有可怜的1.7%。
