"In order to sell something you need a buyer, and it is unclear who that is," said Charles Smulders, an industry analyst at market researcher Dataquest.
"The PC business is strategic but a lot of sales go through the Olivetti company itself. Whoever buys it will have to work out some sort of deal whereby those contracts would continue.
