Hi Leo - Prometic has a large basket of promising therapeutics (see next post). Of them all, plasminogen is closest to approval. Meaning production — and revenue.

The problem, of course, is the huge cash outlay required to bring other candidates to revenue-producing status with ~668,690,000 shares already outstanding. Right or wrong, Bloom Burton's still-running short attack has diminished market confidence, and can be expected to continue for many months.

There's possible help from a few sources:

[1] Partnerships
[2] Receive and sell Pediatric Priority Review Voucher (est $100 million +)
[3] More distributions/dilution
[3] Longer-term, rights offering

For a junior, there's nothing unusual about this cash crunch. The promise is exciting but near-term gain seems unlikely.
