Mad Catz har haft det rejält motigt på slutet och nyligen tvingades de bort från New York-börsen. Senaste tiden har de letat samarbetspartners eller potentiella köpare men inget verkar ha fungerat och nu ansöker det kanadensiska företaget om att få gå i konkurs. Karen McGinnis, president and chief executive officer, säger i ett officiellt uttalande:
"Regrettably and notwithstanding that for a significant amount of time the Company has been actively pursuing its strategic alternatives, including various near term financing alternatives such as bank financing and equity infusions, as well as potential sales of certain assets of the Company or a sale of the Company in its entirety, the Company has been unable to find a satisfactory solution to its cash liquidity problems. The Board of Directors and management would like to acknowledge the outstanding efforts of the Company's employees in support of its business, especially during the time that the Company faced financial difficulties. The Company would also like to thank the vendors and professional service providers who have supported the Company's efforts during this time."
