(a) Capital structure and liquidity: The company maintains a debt-free balance sheet with a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.0 and total equity of $20.1 million against total liabilities of $17.2 million. Cash and equivalents stand at $5.3 million, providing a liquidity buffer against negative operating cash flow of $12.1 million.
