It looks like they got to that number by including the losses incurred by the other vendors, and Nokia in particular.

Easy. . . Because the other players are losing money. There are negative numbers involved in the equation. These producers are pushing product out the door at a loss. . .
These are "operating profits," not final profit numbers. When you adjust for those, it's slightly different. Another report showing the previous quarter:
"Canaccord’s last report (first quarter 2014) showed that Apple and Samsung had 106% of profits combined, with Apple collecting 65% and Samsung only 21%. The numbers aren’t much different this time around except that Samsung is actually on the decline while the iPhone is on the rise. Source.

Educate me ... how can you have more than 100% of anything? When the remainder of the industry is operating at a loss.
