As of the end of June, Astra reported $26.3 million of cash, cash equivalents, or marketable securities on its balance sheet, less than the company projected in its previous quarterly report. Astra forecasts that figure to fall to between $15 million and $20 million by the end of September. The company's net loss for the second quarter of this year was $14 million.
Despite the cost-cutting, layoffs, and plans for a stock sale, Astra said in its quarterly filing with the SEC that it still has "limited cash resources." The company said it will need additional capital to fund commercial-scale production. If Astra obtains "significant additional financing" and continues to limit capital expenditures, the company's management wrote that it expects to be able to continue operating for at least the next 12 months.
