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.
Get this read on your companyAbout 2.0 years of runway
Cash and investments of $378M at Q2 '26 against an average operating cash burn of $46.7M per quarter over the last four reported quarters runs out around June 2028. More than two years of runway means the finance conversation is about deployment, not survival.
Cash position up $207M since Q3 '24
Net financing inflows of $294M over the last four quarters, from equity, debt, or ATM sales, more than covered operating burn. The balance is the number the board watches; the trend is the number the auditors watch.
R&D is 77% of operating expenses
$44.3M of R&D against $57.4M of total operating expenses in Q2 '26, with G&A at $13.1M. 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.
Accumulated deficit of $1.07B
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.
