- **Strategic Balance**: Prioritizing platform optimization while maintaining flexibility to monetize proteoform insights through collaborations or direct assays.

**【CEO Opening Remarks】**
- Q2 marked a milestone with the release of a preprint manuscript showcasing the Nautilus platform's ability to resolve proteoforms at single-molecule resolution. This work, conducted in collaboration with Genentech, Neural Stem Cell Institute, and Mount Sinai, validates the platform's technical rigor and biological impact.
- The manuscript demonstrates the platform's industry-leading reproducibility (median CV of 1.5% within-run, 5% across runs) and sensitivity, quantifying proteoforms at 0.1% abundance levels. Early biological insights suggest potential new mechanisms in tau biology, opening pathways for neurodegenerative disease diagnostics and therapeutics.
- The company signed 2 collaborations with U.S. research institutes to demonstrate platform capabilities and enable new biological insights, though these are not revenue-generating in the near term.

**【Chief Scientist (Parag Mallick) Technical Update】**
- The iterative mapping method enables end-to-end proteoform analysis from sample to quantification, with no existing platform capable of matching its resolution or sensitivity. Traditional methods (e.g., Olink, mass spectrometry) lose co-occurrence data or require peptide fragmentation, making them unsuitable for proteoform analysis.
- The platform's dynamic range (1,000x) and reproducibility (5% CV across labs) are superior to existing proteomics tools. In tau studies, the platform identified 130 distinct proteoforms, including forms with 6 simultaneous phosphorylation events, which were previously undetectable.
- Human cohort analysis revealed a quadruply phosphorylated tau form uniquely associated with aggressive Alzheimer's, suggesting potential biomarkers for disease staging and progression.

**【CFO (Anna Mowry) Financial Update】**
- Q2 2025 operating expenses: $17.1M (18% YoY decrease), driven by headcount reduction and cost optimization. R&D: $10.4M (-16% YoY), G&A: $6.7M (-20% YoY). Net loss: $15.0M (17% YoY improvement). Cash balance: $179.5M, providing runway through 2027.
- Expect steady R&D spending in H2 2025, with total annual expenses below 2024 levels. Focus on balancing resource allocation between targeted proteoform assays and broadscale proteomics development.
