Barnes & Noble is doubling down on its flailing e-book business—but also leaving open the option that it would part ways with the money-losing device at some point.
The bookseller said Wednesday that it’s currently losing less money on the Nook than in the past and now plans to release a new version of its Nook in fiscal 2015, which starts in May. But the company also said it is continuing to study the possibility of splitting Nook from Barnes & Noble’s retail division.
