Watch Out For

Severe cash burn ($20M net loss on $570K revenue in FY2024) with minimal cash reserves ($2M) creates acute funding risk and runway concerns
Zero active job openings and no hiring activity signal organizational freeze or planning for significant restructuring
All pipeline programs in Phase 1–2 with no Phase 3 trials means 5+ years minimum to potential approval, with high failure probability
