Thanks to all of you who posted replies. That is a big help. Something I don't understand is the significance of the following statement. Debt including working capital deficiency dropped by $1,058,889 in the quarter to $11,485,445. This results in a debt-to-annualized cash flow ratio of 1.5 times. I understand that debt and the resultant interest can kill a company. Many a company has gone under because they have too much debt. I assume "working capital deficiency" is a buzz-word type statement for debt.? What is the significance of a debt-to-annualized cash flow ratio of 1.5? Low, okay, high, scary?
