Despite the positive outlook, the company’s EBITDA may yet decrease slightly because of a rapid rise in the costs of product and services. The rising costs are the result of more investment in product innovation thus driving up research and development expenses together with pricing pressure from competitors.

There has also been a rising controversy over the Motorola plant in Harvard which the company closed. Investors seemed to have had some hope for the plant’s future and for that reason the company kept the campus well maintained. Unfortunately, care seems to have ceased over the past few months, and the value of the structure has plummeted.

Many believe that Harvard may take ownership of the plant. They believe that it would be a good move that would see the campus restored from it’s currently run down state. If the plant is in the right hands, they can team up with the Economic Development Commission and a team of advocates to adopt a marketing strategy for the plant.
