Answer:
Of course you should be concerned about negative cash outflows resulting from investing or financing activities.
Negative cash outflows for investing activities means that the company purchased more fixed assets or securities this year than the ones that were sold. E.g. the company purchased new equipment for $100,000. Investing activities usually require large amounts of cash.
If financing activities yield negative numbers, it means that either the company paid too much in dividends, or they paid long term debts (e.g. retired bonds or paid back bank loans), but at the same time did not raise enough capital to offset them.
When you are analyzing the finances of a company, cash is king. A company might be very profitable, but it will not survive it its cash flows are negative. If there are enough positive cash flows from operating activities to offset these other cash outflows, then the company should be OK. But if operating cash flows cannot offset them, then the company should be concerned.
