It’s not a question of IF it will. It will. Both financially, and morally

I mean it was kinda destined to go bankrupt even under rge old owners. It only really ever produced a profit for like six months and was surviving of investor money

It was losing money but not a huge amount. They could have made reasonable cuts (compared to how Elron slashed 75% of staff) and been profitable, probably.
