What this means

  • Not a bankruptcy filing, and not a prediction.
  • It is the company’s own statement, agreed with its auditor, that the doubt is material enough to disclose.
  • The runway is arithmetic on two reported numbers, not a forecast. Companies carry this language for years, raise money and keep going.

What else the numbers show

  • 29.1% share-count increase The company issued stock. Each share now owns 22.5% less of the business than a year ago, before any change in the price.
  • Cash burn is narrowing It is spending 44% less cash per year than it was, so the runway above is lengthening rather than shortening.
