Cashburn13 Jan 2020 14:21
Just read the last accounts and was surprised to see how high the cashburn is. The company burn through £27.63 million in six months and said funding will be required in the second quarter of 2020. It should also be noted that Invesco holds 98million shares and has been selling down its position recently.
This is from the accounts:
"Under the current business plan and detailed cash flow forecasts, with ongoing R&D efforts focused on our rare disease products, setrusumab and alvelestat, we expect that our current on-hand cash resources will extend to the end of Q2 2020. Therefore, the Group requires additional external funding within the next 12 months to be able to continue as a going concern. Principally, this funding will be required to complete our current trials, fund our ongoing administrative costs and other general working capital and contractual financing requirements and to commence our pivotal paediatric study and the manufacturing scale up activities for setrusumab as we progress with our development plans for that program."
