"As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has outstanding debt and has filed voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code which resulted in an event of default of its debt instruments that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern."

What this means

The filing states that substantial doubt exists about the company's ability to continue as a going concern: it may not have enough cash to last the next 12 months. Expect dilution, debt deals or worse. An auditor's going-concern paragraph is the strongest form of this warning.
