GROK: Cash Reserves: Santen likely has a lot of cash reserves (estimated at
$200–400 million or more), based on its
$1.97 billion revenue, 36% net income growth , and ongoing share buyback program as of June 2025. This liquidity positions Santen to afford Clearside’s modest
$65.6 million market cap, especially given Clearside’s cash constraints
Clearside’s need for capital to fund PH3 trials for CLS-AX makes it an attractive acquisition target, which could provide the necessary funding to advance Clearside’s programs while integrating its technology.
