Do you remember Moderna $MRNA ???

Moderna beats estimates but slashes guidance on low EU sales, competitive U.S. vaccine market. It is down -20% today and -79% from its covid all-time-high. Moderna: "Net product sales for Q2 24 were $184M, reflecting a 37% YoY decrease. This reduction aligns with the expected shift to a seasonal COVID-19 vaccine market.." Moderna had $241M in total sales in Q2 and $1.6B in total operating expenses. Adding interest income, they burned $1.27B in one quarter. Cash on balance sheet is down to $2.47B. I fully expect expect them to do large capital raise to dilute shareholders. Source: JaguarAnalytics, The Transcript
