> They may only have bought themselves 6 more months of time given their purported burn rate

If they had only ~6 more months they (+auditor) had to issue a warning. The 6 is not a hard number, AFAIK, but surely a point where it must be reported.

So honestly, I doubt it's the case.

At least as written, GP says bought them six more months of time. Not implying they had 0 months to begin with.

That was indeed my intent. Pre-IPO, SpaceX already had _some_ cash in hand, and was burning >4b per quarter IIRC; so presumably _some_ runway. That said, they also got the anthropic/openai monthly payments coming in soon (already started maybe?). The next earnings release will be the interesting one IMO.
