While we continue to remain concerned about the risk to financing and potential for the deal price to go lower, we note the due diligence process could provide additional information on such items as patents and potential monetization opportunities of these patents, details around service contracts with carriers.”BlackBerry Ltd. closed on Wednesday at $7.96.
