Pioneering therapeutic protein platform with multiple programs spanning high-need areas (muscular dystrophy, pulmonary sarcoidosis, COVID-19 pneumonia)
Public company status provides liquidity and resources, with $23M cash position and focused R&D spend of $42M annually
Early-stage programs offer opportunity to shape clinical development and contribute to potentially transformative rare disease therapies

Watch Out For

Severe cash burn ($50.4M net loss in FY 2025) against only $353K revenue signals 18-24 month runway without additional financing
No active job openings and minimal headcount data suggest company is in conservation mode, limiting near-term hiring and career growth opportunities
Pipeline concentrated in Phase 1/2 programs with only one Phase 3 trial; significant clinical risk and extended path to commercialization
