FAQ

Why Bearish?

The dilution from issuing new shares is likely to pressure the stock price, as seen in past biotech capital raises where investors reacted negatively to dilution events.

How important is it?

While the capital raise supports technological development, the modest size and dilution risk suggest a moderate impact on price.

Why Short Term?

The dilutive effect is immediate, though long-term fundamentals may improve if technology adoption grows.
