Persistent Negative Operating Cash FlowRecurring negative operating and free cash flow erodes liquidity and forces reliance on external funding or asset sales.

Opaque Revenue DisclosureLack of clear revenue figures obscures assessment of royalty scale and margin sustainability. For investors and planners this increases forecasting uncertainty about future cash receipts, making capital allocation and valuation of the royalty stream less reliable.
