Revenue is spread across several lines; no single product carries the company.

Over the last 12 months, company executives reported 40 buys and 36 sells. Management buying with its own money is usually read as a good sign.
A loss of $530.8M against $1.6B in annual sales. And on top of that, sales fell from the year before.
The stock sits at $0.62. Under exchange rules, stocks that stay below $1 for too long risk being removed from the market.
At the current pace of spending, the cash lasts less than a year. After that, the company needs to find new money.
