DK CEO, Ian Hudson, had this to say:

“During a year-long extensive review, many new ways were explored to diversify Prima Games publishing. However, the dynamics for us of this fast-paced landscape have continued to prove difficult."

“This enormously dedicated team has made every effort to turn the business around, but challenging market conditions have unfortunately worked against them."
