Executive Summary

Instil Bio reported Q1 2026 GAAP EPS of -$0.62, a slight miss vs consensus -$0.59, but as a pre-revenue biotech the absolute variance is immaterial. Cash burn remains low at $1.6M during the quarter, with $74.7M cash expected to fund operations beyond 2027. The company is actively evaluating M&A opportunities but provided no specific updates.
