Except the losses come from the construction of new reactors (the AP1000 for the Vogtle and Summer plants), not the operation of them.

Westinghouse's business model was to try to break even on construction and make money servicing and selling fuel rod assemblies.

so then, sounds like quickest and cheapest (bankruptcy) way to do that is to get that division absorbed by another defense contractor or the gubmint.
