Microbot Medical's first-quarter report shows a significant increase in net loss and cash used in operating activities, despite generating initial revenues from its LIBERTY Endovascular Robotic System. The company is ramping up commercialization and continues to burn cash for R&D and sales activities. While management asserts a cash runway of over 12 months, the increased burn rate and the ongoing, albeit slow, utilization of a large At-The-Market offering highlight the need for continued capital.
