Rumor: Lenovo In Talks To Buy BlackBerry
Blackberry shares rose more than 3% on Monday after a news website said Chinese computer maker (Lenovo Group) might offer to buy the Canadian technology company (Blackberry).
The source said Lenovo's first offer would be $15.00 per share, with a deal ultimately getting done around $18.00 per share. The previous Lenovo attempt to buy BlackBerry in November 2013 was scuttled when the Canadian government made it very clear that no Chinese company would be purchasing BlackBerry
Lenovo announced on Wednesday, the creation of a new company focused on internet-based smart devices, to be launched on April 1, 2015. The company will operate under a separate name and brand.
A Blackberry spokesperson told news website that the company does not comment on rumors or speculation. A Lenovo spokesperson was not available for comment.
