Over a month ago I received a tip that DxO Mark/DxO Labs is in bankruptcy or for sale. Today CanonRumors confirmed this rumor (see also this link):
It looks like DxO Labs has gone into receivership for the purpose of reorganizing the company. DxO Labs deals with the software side of the DxO brand, as DxOMark deals with the testing of cameras and lenses. DxO Labs would likely be the ones dealing with the Nik Software plugins acquired from Google last year.
@DxOLabs Can you confirm whether DxOMark is in bankruptcy or for sale?
