KODKodiak Sciences Inc.
Is it safe?
Mostly sound, with a caveat: insiders buying, but heavy debt (CCC) and big price swings.
Insiders were net buyers (+$157.0M, 90 days to Oct 22, 2026). SEC Form 4 filings: officers and directors must report their own trades within two business days.
Debt against weak or negative operating profit. A rule of thumb on leverage, not a credit rating.
Large price swings, high volatility. Worst drawdown -99% · now 12% below its 52-week high.

Where this answer is blind. Altman sits structurally low for utilities and pipelines; Beneish runs high for fast growers, since sales growth alone lifts it; banks and REITs are excluded.
