Losses at Ocean Power Technologies (OPTT) raise doubt it can keep operating as CEO role shifts

Ocean Power Technologies (OPTT) reported a $10.5M net loss for Q2 2026, despite revenue growth to $1.7M. High costs and cash burn raised going-concern doubts. The company completed financings totaling $17.4M but faces high debt interest and an onerous contract. A 1-for-30 reverse stock split was implemented, and a new acting CEO was appointed.
