Globe says BlackBerry slogs along but CEO rides high

The Globe and Mail reports in its Thursday edition that we will soon enter the 10th year of the John Chen turnaround era at BlackBerry. The Globe's David Milstead writes that the shares today trade for less than they did when he took over as chief executive officer in November, 2013. In the fast-moving world of technology, BlackBerry seems to slog along with not much to show for all its efforts. Mr. Chen does have a lot to show for it, however. As long-term shareholders have suffered, Mr. Chen has been able to sell $96.5-million (U.S.) worth of BlackBerry stock. This year, angry shareholders will have an opportunity to demonstrate their displeasure with the company's pay packages. The two major proxy advisers, ISS and Glass Lewis, have each recommended a "no" vote on the company's non-binding "say-on-pay" resolution, to be voted on next week at the annual meeting. They did that last year, too, when BlackBerry got 59 per cent of shareholders to vote in favour. The normal level of say-on-pay support in Canada is above 90 per cent. Glass Lewis also suggests shareholders sack the entire compensation committee by withholding their votes for three directors: Michael Daniels, Richard Lynch and Fairfax's Prem Watsa.
