It's owned by an investment group. They sell in a particular hurry ESPECIALLY when something is going well. You sell at peak value shortly after a round of re-valuing purchases and hype, when cash value is high for returns, and earnings prospects are high to entice buyers.
As for who'll be buying, I'd be surprised if it was AD, but can't rule it out, a media group or an unexpected games-side player or something like that seems more likely though. Or maybe DS will decide to piss in AD's cornflakes buying it, but I doubt they are willing to shell out 200-250M pounds for such an unfamiliar patents package and software they have no cross-sales potential or sales network to merge and reduce in.
