As I understand it, the current entity that is Meridian got nada from the "sale" of MQA; its owner Richemont did (which retained a 25% stake in MQA when it was spun out, and which seems a likely candidate for the backer who wants to pull out). There was a complicated financial restructuring when Meridian underwent its John Buchanan led MBO, but the Meridian that resulted didn't benefit from MQA IP rights.
