What output file? Is this a number somewhere that says "total charge -40"
or something like that? Is this the mol2 file?

This is the sum of every partial atomic charge. Did you add up each partial
charge for each atom? What does it come out to be?

You should double-check your partial charges to make sure that they really
do add up to -40.000 like you think it would. This is most likely the
source of your error.
Good luck!
