Future Capital Requirements
2 unchanged sentences
Since our inception, we have generally incurred significant losses and negative cash flows.
−Removed: Based on our $14.9 million in cash and cash equivalents and $62.2 million in available for sale securities as of June 30, 2023, we anticipate our available cash balance will not be sufficient for the next twelve months from the issuance of this report.
+Added: Based on our $34.6 million in cash and cash equivalents and $29.0 million in available for sale securities as of September 30, 2023, we anticipate our available cash balance will not be sufficient for the next twelve months from the issuance of this report.
Accordingly, based on recurring losses from operations incurred since inception, our expectation of continued operating losses, our current business plan, and the need to raise additional capital to finance our future operations, we determined that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within 12 months after the date that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are issued.
+Added: Based on our current business plans, we believe that the net proceeds from the Offering and Private Placement, together with our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of September 30, 2023 will be sufficient to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditures through at least 2024.
+Added: However, this estimate assumes the inclusion of $35.0 million that we are required to hold as restricted cash in an account control agreement under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, which we are only able to access upon meeting certain funding conditions as described in the Purchase Agreement and the Notes, including (1) having an average daily dollar trading volume of its common stock of at least $3.5 million during the ten trading days prior to each of the date on which a Restricted Cash Request (as defined in the Notes) is delivered and the Restricted Cash Release Date (as defined in the Notes) to which such Restricted Cash Request relates and (2) certain indebtedness, as provided in the Notes, being less than 25% of our daily market capitalization as calculated on each trading day during the 20 consecutive trading day period ending on the trading day immediately prior to the Restricted Cash Release Date.
+Added: We expect these funding conditions may be difficult to achieve, and there is no assurance that we will be able to meet these funding conditions and access such restricted cash.
+Added: Excluding this amount of restricted cash, we expect that the net proceeds from the Offering and Private Placement, together with our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will only be sufficient to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements through at least into the third quarter of 2024.
+Added: In either situation described above, the net proceeds from the Offering and Private Placement, together with our existing cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities, will not be sufficient for us to achieve cash-flow break even and we expect to need to seek additional capital based on favorable market conditions or consider strategic alternatives in the future.
We plan to continue to fund our losses from operations through revenues, cash and cash equivalents on hand, sale of marketable securities and equity or debt financings.
