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 22 months of runway

Cash and investments of $628M at Q2 '26 against an average operating cash burn of $86.7M per quarter over the last four reported quarters runs out around March 2028. Between one and two years is the window where the next raise gets planned; the terms depend on what the data does before the cash does.

Cash position down $316M since Q3 '24

Net financing inflows of $347M 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.

Net loss runs $23.5M above cash burn

The Q2 '26 net loss of $107M includes non-cash charges, including $18.1M of stock-based compensation, that do not consume cash. Burn, not net loss, is what runway is built on.

R&D is 69% of operating expenses

$82.6M of R&D against $120M of total operating expenses in Q2 '26, with G&A at $37.8M. 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.

Revenue of $7.7M in Q2 '26

Collaboration and license revenue under ASC 606 and ASC 808 is the single most judgment-heavy area in biotech accounting: performance obligations, variable consideration on milestones, and the split between revenue and cost-sharing.

Accumulated deficit of $2.79B

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.
