Odonate Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:ODT) Stock Is In Downtrend: What Next?

The Odonate Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:ODT) stock was in the middle of a bit of a selloff yesterday in reaction to the announcement of the financial results for the three months as well as the six months periods that ended on June 30, 2021.

The company announced that at the end of the period on June 30, it had a cash balance of $110.1 million, down from as much as $157.1 million back on December 31, 2020. Odonate pointed out that the drop in the cash balance was primarily a function of cash that had been used in order to fund its operations during the first half of the year.

However, it should be noted that the losses had actually been reduced by Odonate.
