Survival - Fragile
15-21 mo of estimated runway from 2026-06-30, based on $41.1M of cash and short-term investments against $27.8M of annual burn. A disclosed filing event caps this reading; Event Risk carries the detail.
Business quality - Poor
-7.2% operating margin and -5.5% FCF margin produce a poor Business Quality assessment.
Trajectory - Accelerating
Revenue, operating margin and cash margin improved together. Revenue improved 38.4%; operating margin improved 6.6pp; FCF margin improved 8.4pp. The TTM window includes a mixed-basis Q4 estimate.
Valuation - Evidence incomplete
A positive current market capitalization is unavailable, so price-to-fundamentals evidence cannot be computed.
Event risk - Critical event risk
Going-Concern Warning is the decisive filing event; one adverse event family is active. It appears across 2 scanned filings. Favorable events are shown separately and do not offset adverse risk.
