Material uncertainty over going concern
We draw attention to note 1.2 to the financial statements which indicates that the company is dependent on its parent undertaking, Agenus Inc., to provide financial support for the company's operations. This financial support is dependent upon MiNK Therapeutics Inc. securing new external funding, no later March 2025. The success and timing of Agenus Inc. agreeing such new funding are uncertain. These events and conditions, along with the other matters explained in note 1.2, constitute a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
