Solid Earnings for Motorola Solutions
The second of the Motorolae reported earnings for the first time today and performed quite a bit better than its sibling, Motorola Mobility, did yesterday. In its fourth quarter, Motorola Solutions–a provider of public-safety radios and wireless network infrastructure, among other things–earned $194 million, or 57 cents a share, on revenue that rose 13 percent to $2.25 billion. A nice beat, considering analysts had been looking for earnings of 44 cents a share on revenue of $1.83 billion.
