What is the cash burn rate and runway given the current cash position?

Answer

The press release you quoted does not include the specific figures needed to calculate Jam Jamf’s cash‑burn rate or the length of its cash runway. The summary only tells us that Jamf (NASDAQ: JAMF) announced its Q2 2025 results and that a full earnings release (filed on Form 8‑K with the SEC) is available on the company’s Investor‑Relations website.

To determine the cash‑burn rate and runway you would need the following pieces of information that are typically disclosed in the earnings release or the accompanying 10‑Q filing:

Required metric Where it is usually found
Cash balance (or cash‑and‑cash‑equivalents) at period end Balance‑sheet section of the 10‑Q or the “Liquidity” slide in the earnings release.
Net cash used (or cash‑burn) during the quarter “Cash flow from operating activities” or a “Cash‑burn” line in the Management Discussion & Analysis (MD&A) section.
Projected cash‑burn rate (e.g., cash used per month or per quarter) Often presented as a “runway” metric in the “Capital resources” or “Liquidity” discussion, sometimes expressed as “cash on hand will fund operations for X months.”
Management’s runway estimate A forward‑looking statement that translates the current cash balance and expected burn into a number of months (or quarters) of operating cash remaining.

How to calculate them (if the numbers are available)

  1. Cash‑burn rate

    [
    \text{Cash‑burn rate (per month)} = \frac{\text{Cash used in the quarter}}{3}
    ]

    (or use the “cash used per month” figure if the company already provides it).

  2. Runway (months)

    [
    \text{Runway (months)} = \frac{\text{Cash balance at period end}}{\text{Cash‑burn rate (per month)}}
    ]

If the company reports a “runway” directly, you can quote that number instead of recomputing it.

What to do next

  1. Visit the Investor‑Relations page:

    Go to https://ir.jamf.com and locate the Q2 2025 earnings release (or the Form 8‑K filing). The release typically includes a “Liquidity” slide that shows cash on hand, cash‑burn for the quarter, and the projected runway.

  2. Review the SEC filing (Form 10‑Q):

    The 10‑Q filed for the quarter will have the balance‑sheet and cash‑flow statement in detail, allowing you to compute the burn rate and runway yourself.

  3. Check the conference call transcript:

    Management often reiterates the cash‑runway metric during the earnings call. The transcript is usually posted shortly after the call on the same IR site.

Sample answer (if the numbers were disclosed)

If, for example, the earnings release showed:

  • Cash on hand at June 30 2025: $210 million
  • Cash used in Q2 2025: $45 million

Then:

  • Cash‑burn rate per month = $45 M ÷ 3 ≈ $15 M per month.
  • Runway = $210 M ÷ $15 M ≈ 14 months of operating cash remaining (assuming burn stays constant).

But again, the exact numbers are not present in the excerpt you provided, so you’ll need to retrieve the full earnings release to obtain the precise figures.


Bottom line: The current press‑release excerpt does not contain the cash‑burn rate or runway data. Retrieve the full Jamf Q2 2025 earnings release (or the SEC Form 10‑Q) from the Investor‑Relations site to get the cash balance, quarterly cash usage, and any management‑provided runway estimate, then apply the simple formulas above to compute the metrics.
