Yes, but they have a debt about equal to the cash. With a large
cash burn, BK is a very likely outcome.

And so life goes on. Does this just increase future losses? One would hope not. With Revenues not expected to expand this year as in the past(hence losses capped, it would seem), perhaps cash can last at least several years? Can product mix offer an improved balance sheet- lowering losses- and stretch that out much much further? I'd guess yes, -probably.
