Guidance

Understanding Your Results

Your cash runway tells you how long your business can operate before running out of money. A runway under 6 months is a red flag that should trigger immediate action β€” either reducing burn or raising additional funding. Most investors and advisors recommend maintaining at least 12–18 months of runway. The runway end date gives you a concrete deadline to work towards.
