Sustained Cash BurnPersistently negative operating cash flow and accelerating burn create structural financing risk. Ongoing trial programs will require external capital raises or partnerships, which can dilute shareholders, constrain strategic choices, and place pressure on timelines if funding gaps emerge.

No Revenue; Very Small Operational ScaleAs a tiny, pre‑revenue clinical company with only a handful of employees, Cadrenal faces concentrated execution risk. Successful commercialization requires significant organizational buildout, partnerships or outsourcing and reliable clinical outcomes to transition from research to sustainable operations.
