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.

What else the numbers show

  • Cash burn is narrowing It is spending 49% less cash per year than it was, so the runway above is lengthening rather than shortening.
