If they keep spending at the rate they did in the first half of the year cash will run out on the 17th of November. The company is not as well funded as some would like others to believe. In the absence of funding from elsewhere I would expect a placing being completed a few months before D-Day so a placing in the near future should not surprise anybody.
The cash runway can be extended by curtailing Investing Activities and / or limiting Operating Activities but would either action be in the companies best interests?
The big questions are will Adam be supporting the placing with his own money? Are any other strategic investors interested? Will there need to be a discount and how deep would that discount be?
And, of course, how fast will PM try (and fail) to rubbish the figures?
