Outlook
Momentus faces substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern, as it has not yet generated sufficient revenue to fund its operations. The company will need to raise substantial additional capital in the near term to continue executing on its business plan and achieve profitability.
If Momentus is unable to raise the necessary capital, it may need to scale back or halt its operations, which could severely curtail or cease the company’s activities. The company’s future remains uncertain and dependent on its ability to secure additional financing.
