Calidi Biotherapeutics reported a second-quarter 2026 net loss attributable to common stockholders of $4.2 million, or $2.94 per share, compared with $5.7 million, or $31.75 per share, a year earlier; per-share figures reflect a 1-for-16 reverse split completed in July 2026. Cash fell to $4.1 million by June 30, 2026, and the company's filing lists the risk that it may not raise sufficient capital, which matters for shareholders.
