How does losing > $100e6 per year result in "amassing a big war chest"?


Raising a $250MM IPO is amassing a war chest. If that becomes harder, they become less competitive.


They're not competitive right now, from the sounds of it - they're losing a lot of money, very fast.


I don't see how Box could possibly compete on pricing with Google storage, considering the high volume of hardware purchases Google is doing and high volume discounts it's getting.
