Right, Bob Rudd. That's what I meant to say: RML is a supplier to WMT, and WMT will be cutting back purchases from RML - apparently only though as regards a particular product line (boys' clothes), which is a small percentage of RML's overall sales. I hope that's all that WMT will be dropping from RSL. (assuming here that both companies have, and want to continue, a profitable customer/supplier relationship) I'm not concerned with cash flow here. (Perhaps I should be.) I assume that sales are down due to hurricanes damaging RSL's goods for delivery as well as distribution facilities, and I expect cash flow will be diminished too. My bet is that sales and p/sales will return to normal levels at some reasonable point in future.
