Line 22: In early [[3068]], JBBMI was struck by a financial crisis, which resulted in a change in ownership after three stockholders managed to acquire control of over sixty percent of the corporation. Under the new ownership regime, most of the production facilities located in the Draconis Combine, Federated Suns and Lyran Alliance were closed, resulting in massive layoffs. Despite the layoffs, reports circulated suggesting that JBBMI was opening new facilities on [[Caph]], [[Epsilon Eridani]] and [[New Earth]], but none of the laid-off workers from other realms were offered the option to transfer to any of these new facilities. JBBMI continued to produce the DGR-6FC variant of the ''Dragon Fire'', but only for the Word of Blake, although a raid on the facility at Myers on New Earth allegedly saw the [[Skye Rangers]] abscond with a half-dozen of these 'Mechs.<ref name="TRO:3058Up146"/> In early [[3068]], JBBMI was struck by a financial crisis, which resulted in a change in ownership after three stockholders managed to acquire control of over sixty percent of the corporation.
