It means the link juice isn't passed through from domain A to domain B. Google loves a good spread of do-follow (with linkjuice passing through) and no-follow links. Some no-follow links generate a lot of traffic to your site.

"Nofollow" provides a way for webmasters to tell search engines "Don't follow links on this page" or "Don't follow this specific link."

Originally, the nofollow attribute appeared in the page-level meta tag, and instructed search engines not to follow (i.e., crawl) any outgoing links on the page. For example:

<meta name="robots" content="nofollow" />
