Andrew is out, and the original investors are in control. One can assume that Heighway has not made money yet on Full Throttle due to low sales and development costs, and Alien will take a while to start making money. They have typical manufacturing monthly expenses, but their development costs may be low or nil since they pay some contractors based on units sold(or delivered?). One parts vendor screwup or line problem could halt production, and cash reserves is the only way to stay afloat. How much “new money” do you think the new owners are bringing to the table to turn Heighway around to profitability? Feel free to comment on your guess - remember this is new cash infusion money post Andrew - not their original investment.

Throwing cash at everything doesn't necessarily fix it.

Not sure. You should ask them and send a check or bank wire. They are no longer accepting credit cards for some reason.
