In my line of work I've seen this probably 100 times. Reputation built on quality service delivery and a reasonable (not lowest) price.
Owner sells for one reason or another. New buyer is heavily leveraged and very profit motivated. They overdistribute, lower quality, hire idiots for customer service. Down turn in the economy in the last 3 years took a heavy toll on these companies. Many did not make it. Near the end they become desperate.
It is a great opportunity for former employees to start a new company or even buy a company for a song. New players can fill this niche.
America is great land of opportunity.

the backbone of the companies always get screwed!
Trust me I've seen this before - Is Julie's last name Granville???? Skip the new Cig looser fires Linda in charge of sportswear and refuses to take the sportswear trailers to the races - Julie screws Brett who dates Linda. The great employees always loose when the " so called " money / brains / latest greatest inventor of high performance guru steps in. It never works and never will - BH

Julie made me sick when I met her last year at our poker run on Lake Lanier. Limos - big shot and partying was all she's about. Her POS boat was broke down most of the time and then they almost ran over several people at cocktail cove - what a joke! BH

Trust me I've seen it all and have been taken to the cleaners by bankruptcy protection. Bankrupcy is an American given right to steal from your suppliers.
To make matters worse watch the Banks sue you for all money 90days PRIOR to the filing date and we have to pay some amount after extensive lawyers fees.
I have learned from the system, however, there will be key personnel from that company who have gotten hosed. The savvy ones start their own businesses and profit.
If any company does not pay their employees or taxes, a lock goes on the door by the sheriff.

all i can say is that with all this chit going on with keith, cig, and others is that i own a "original" don aronow built cigarette because mines a 72. and it is currently being loaded with "original" keith eickert parts and that the men behind the names saw that the job was done.
