Our company made profits of over $90 million in every quarter for the past 5 years or so, over $100 million in several. We have millions of dollars of cash in reserve. But because we're making slightly LESS than that in recent quarters, we've had a round of layoffs and have implemented some semi-drastic cost cutting measures to prevent more.
