Private placement of Series B raised $1.0 million; strengthens liquidity ahead of closing.
PUR1900 India Phase 3 progress with Cipla; 2% royalties outside US; 50/50 US monetization.
Cash position: $2.2 million cash, $0.7 million restricted cash; runway through anticipated close.

Sentiment rationale

The deal-driven catalyst is binary; the near-term price may hinge on closing success and financing terms. With limited near-term revenue and ongoing execution risk, the stock likely trades in a narrow band until the merger closes or further milestones are disclosed.
