It's always about the money.
I just think many of the lines took a hit when they are not readily available to buy in stores. Yes, a lot of people have switched to digital, and many more will order print books on-line. But a lot of people who read print don't shop on line. So if the books aren't available to buy locally, they just buy different books.
I don't think Carina will close. They've always been digital first with some dabbling in print. And they're focused more on individual authors than series-line type plots.
I could see some of the imprints at HarperCollins merging or closing though.
