This company appears to have gone "under the radar" from a Wikipedia perspective over the past few years, and appears also to have morphed into a firm called Spaceflight Services, or just plain Spaceflight.
The company Spaceflight appears to be active and growing as of 2015, and is actually contracted for a number of specific orbital launches in the next couple of years as the primary payload of several different launch service providers, in Russia, Europe and the US. This takes considerable financial backing. The business model appears to be "rideshare", where Spaceflight books the launch with the rocket company, and then Spaceflight carries some number of smaller smallsat payloads to a specific orbital plane and altitude, deploying the sats, etc., all on a regular/planned launch schedule that was not previously available to smallsat owners.
Found it. There is a separate article in Wikipedia on Spaceflight Inc., but the info on the split/morph from Andrews Space never got encyclopedically covered in the Andrews Space article (this one. Not sure how they should be handled (merge?, See also, or what?) Will see what is found as some of the sources are digested in the coming weeks. N2e (talk) 05:18, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Found a good source for a series of articles on this company. SpaceNews has apparently written a number of articles about Andrews Space dating back over a decade. (Located through this link, which worked on 7 Oct 2015. — N2e (talk) 19:05, 7 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
