THQ破产保护案国外专家权威解读

What does this mean?

Well, there are two primary options.

1.) Clearlake is buying THQ with the intention of running them as a normal publisher. THQ was not a profitable entity, so this might be incredibly unlikely. It's not entirely impossible however.

2.) Clearlake is buying THQ with the intention of selling off their assets at a later date. By funding THQ until they get through bankruptcy court, THQ's debt is removed, allowing the assets (or the company as a whole) to be sold off without having their studios shut down and have key staff leave. This means that their IPs and studios are more valuable than they would be otherwise, and that Clearlake got to buy them at a relatively cheap price since the $100+ million in debt that got added on to the cost is no longer there, thus meaning any asset sales would likely net a profit.

Note: Technically there is a 30 day window in which other companies can outbid Clearlake and buy THQ.

One of our resident financial experts who actually follows the company weighs in:

The two options are:

1. Clearlake load up the new subsidiary, THQ, with preferential debt and sell them as a whole company to the highest bidder.

2. Clearlake break up the company and sell the assets one by one after signing sweetheart deals with key talent.

Of these two, the second option is the most likely.

工作室还在的
只不过会被卖点
除非有其他人买下THQ

和之前那贴一样嘛,很大可能把THQ买下来然后拆开了一个一个的卖。。。。。

THQ这几年在欧美厂商中是混得最差吧,EA有战地和一大票体育游戏,AB有COD和山口山,TAKE-TOW有GTA和2K,zenimax有老滚,包括日本厂商在内各家几乎都有接近或超千万销量的当家作品,THQ产品线那么广却只有一部能买过三百万
