            Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2024
            Filed February 26, 2025
            File No. 000-50865
Dear Christopher Prentiss:

       We have limited our review of your filing to the financial statements
and related
disclosures and have the following comments.

       Please respond to this letter within ten business days by providing the
requested
information or advise us as soon as possible when you will respond. If you do
not believe a
comment applies to your facts and circumstances, please tell us why in your
response.

       After reviewing your response to this letter, we may have additional
comments.

Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2024
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
Results of Operations, page 50

1.     We note that sales of Tyvasco DPI under your Commercial Supply Agreement
(CSA)
       with United Therapeutics (UT) account for the majority of your
Collaboration and
       services revenue, which increased 90% from $53 million in 2023 to $100.9
million in
       2024. Based on your disclosure on page 94 and Section 3.01 of the CSA
included as
       an Exhibit to your filing, it appears that such sales are made to UT on
a cost plus
       margin basis. Given that the increase in your Cost of collaboration
revenue in 2024
       was only 41% compared to the prior year, it would appear that you
achieved higher
       margins on sales of Tyvasco DPI during 2024 than in 2023. However, your
disclosure
       on page 50 attributes the increase in revenue solely to higher patient
demand. Please
       clarify for us the factors underlying the increase in Collaboration and
services revenue
       and revise your disclosure in future filings accordingly.

Revenue Recognition - Collaboration and Services, page 79

2.     You disclose that revenue under your CSA with UT is recognized for the
supply of
       product at a point in time, once control has transferred to UT. In your
auditors' Critical
       Audit Matter discussion, they disclose that revenue is recognized based
on the
       measure of progress as the performance obligation is satisfied and that
forecasted
       revenue over the contract term is utilized in determining the measure of
       progress. Please revise your accounting policy disclosure in future
filings to disclose
       the method used to measure revenue under your CSA as well as the
significant
       judgments used in determining your measure of progress. Please also
disclose how
       any changes in transaction price are recognized.

3.     Please provide a detailed analysis supporting your accounting treatment
for the
       Pulmatrix Transaction as a business combination under ASC 805-10. Please
also
       provide us with copies of the Bill of Sale and Assignment Agreement,
Cross License
       Agreement and Master Services Agreement and explain your consideration
of filing
       these agreements as Exhibits to your filing. Finally, tell us your
consideration of
       providing disclosure in your future filings describing any material
rights or
       obligations under the contracts.


        In closing, we remind you that the company and its management are
responsible for
the accuracy and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review,
