The company expects to fund its future cash needs through the Merger Transaction, which is anticipated to close in the first half of 2025. However, if the Merger Transaction does not close as planned, the company will be in immediate default under its loan agreement and at risk of liquidation or bankruptcy.
Positive Outlook
- Anticipated completion of the Merger Transaction in the first half of 2025 is expected to finance future cash needs.
- Continued cost-saving initiatives are assumed to help maintain operations.
- Continued collaborative engagement from Hercules is expected to provide liquidity.
- The company expects its existing cash and cash equivalents to fund operations into June 2025.
- Research and development expenses are expected to decrease in conjunction with increased commercial activities.
Challenges Ahead
- If the Merger Transaction does not close, the company will be in immediate default under its LSA and at risk of liquidation or bankruptcy.
- The cash runway estimate does not include the use of restricted cash, which is unavailable.
- Future net product revenues depend on demand, market size, market acceptance, and reimbursement, which could differ from assumptions.

- Delayed payments to vendors and suppliers could damage relationships, result in cessation of services, or lead to legal disputes.
