The controller’s read

What the filings say.

Generated from the numbers above using the same questions I ask when I open a client’s books: how long the cash lasts, what is driving the gap between loss and burn, and where the accounting judgment sits.

About 2.4 years of runway

Cash and investments of $163M at Q2 '26 against an average operating cash burn of $17.0M per quarter over the last four reported quarters runs out around October 2028. More than two years of runway means the finance conversation is about deployment, not survival.

Cash position down $69.5M since Q3 '24

Net financing inflows of $85.8M over the last four quarters, from equity, debt, or ATM sales, partly offset operating burn. The balance is the number the board watches; the trend is the number the auditors watch.

R&D is 68% of operating expenses

$13.6M of R&D against $20.1M of total operating expenses in Q2 '26, with G&A at $6.5M. For a clinical-stage company, the accounting questions live inside that R&D line: CRO and CMC accruals, milestone recognition, and what gets capitalized versus expensed under ASC 730.

$7.8M of deferred revenue on the balance sheet

Usually an upfront collaboration or license payment that is recognized as obligations are satisfied. It is cash already received, so it supports runway without showing up as revenue yet.

Accumulated deficit of $422M

Total losses since inception. It is also roughly the size of the net operating loss carryforward the tax provision has to track, subject to Section 382 limits after each ownership change.
