Six Nobel-prize worthy research came from that lab, including the invention of the silicon transistor, and the laser! It was a business decision by the parent company but, I think it's a very myopic business decision to abandon basic physics research now given how much fame and money has come from their discoveries. I hope the federal government takes this into account when they write the budget for basic physics research next time.
