Yeah, I saw the report this morning.
Looks like they're going to file for bankruptcy.
It's a pretty good opportunity for us, though.
We might be able to pick up some of their clients.
So in this dialogue between a couple of managers at a company, you hear this expression go belly up about another company in the same industry because their sales had been dropping for many years and they eventually decided to file for bankruptcy.
So these managers use this expression to describe this closing business.
The other company went belly up.
I think you really would often hear this expression in a business context or in the news, just like our other expression, to lose your shirt.
