Outdoor Wear Blacks in trouble?

Was looking at buying some ski gear (should this really be in the Sports section?!), and heard that O'Neill surfy type gear stores have gone into administration in the UK. Does this mean Blacks, the parent company are in big trouble too?

"Blacks Leisure, the outdoor retail specialist, could put itself through a company voluntary arrangement (CVA) before the end of next month to safeguard its future after it placed its ailing boardwear business, Sandcity, into administration yesterday. "
