Political ProfileWhere EBS sits in Washington

[object Object]

STRUCTURAL: High government dependence (85) and regulatory density (90) scores are inherent to the biodefense sector, but no lobbying spend (`get_political_influence.lobbying.total_income` = 0) or aligned congressional champions are present. EVIDENTIARY: No recent corporate insider buys (`get_corporate_insider_signal.total_buys` = 0), no congressional trades, and only minimal, non-recurring federal contract obligations ($236K). The $1.37M in doctor payments is a compliance signal, not a directional political one. Net: Structural exposure is not currently matched by evidentiary support from market participants.
