The result was keep. Closing as a keep, although a merge discussion may prove fruitful. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:56, 30 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable company. I could not find any significant coverage, and the company may be out of business. Bloomberg Businessweek lists it but shows no recent activity; the phone number they list has been disconnected, and I couldn't find a website for the company.

Keep I could find the company in two separate Indian newspapers (the Times of India and the Economic Times) and plenty of other sources. Why delete it? ChromaNebula (talk) 23:01, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Do you know what those Indian references said? I did notice that Google suggested there was a company profile at The Times of India, but the link was dead. In any case, "company profiles" are usually just reprints of company-supplied information--MelanieN (talk) 20:35, 24 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep ZyMOS (talk) 09:29, 24 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment On further searching, I found that the company (originally named ZyMOS) went bankrupt in 1994 and that most of its assets were acquired by Cirrus Logic.[1] So a merge/redirect to Cirrus Logic is a possibility. --MelanieN (talk) 20:35, 24 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
