The company is still in the product-building phase: its spending runs far above its sales. That only changes once the product starts selling at scale.
Before the clock runs out, either sales must climb sharply or new money must come in. This is the most critical line in the whole picture.
The stock trades 17% below its peak. The market has trimmed its expectations for the company.
It pays out $1.75 per share each year — regular cash for whoever holds the stock.
A loss of $251.35 against $0 in annual sales.
At the current pace of spending, the cash lasts less than a year. After that, the company needs to find new money.
