--$27.8M cash and marketable securities at 3/31/05. --$6.6M of operating cash burn in 1Q05. --$20M of operating cash burn expected for 2005.
It follows from the above that the expected burn during Q2-Q4 is 20-6.6=$13.4M, approximately $4.5M per quarter. *If* this burn rate were maintained, the cash on hand would last more than six quarters (27.8/4.5=6.2 quarters).
