FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

OCGN's financial position deteriorated significantly with stockholders' equity turning negative, total assets falling 47% to $43.5M, and current assets declining 61% to $24.3M. Operating cash flow worsened by 35% to -$57M while R&D expenses increased 24% to $39.8M, indicating higher burn rates.
