Thanks for sharing and highlighting the runway point. Follow-on funding shouldn't be an after thought once sh*t hits the fan. It should be baked into forecasts/plans from the get-go, if it's something that will be needed either for growth, or as a margin of safety.

That is 100% correct. It was a hard lesson to learn but we are now pretty savvy to the process. However I think that it is very hard to plan for a buffer margin. There are very few business plans that I have seen that plan for buffer margins.
