Following the coronavirus crisis, sales had collapsed, making restructuring measures necessary.

How is that even possible? I get that their products aren't cheap and sales might suffer from macroeconomic factors, but I sure would have thought that lockdowns and work-from-home have fuelled their sales.

Looks like the shareholders wanted to cash out and are using covid-19 as an excuse. Perhaps there was some crazy mismanagement of the company too, because it's such a well respected brand.
