Apollomics (APLM) chair reports 41.8% stake and $2M convertible bridge loan

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Apollomics Inc. received additional funding support from its chairman and CEO, Hung‑Wen (Howard) Chen, who, together with his wholly owned entity King Regent Management Limited, beneficially owns 901,362 Class A ordinary shares, representing 41.8% of the class.

On March 30, 2026, the company issued a $2,000,000 Convertible Promissory Note to Mr. Chen as an unsecured bridge loan. The principal will automatically convert into Apollomics equity in the next equity financing that raises at least $10,000,000, at a conversion price equal to 80% of the lowest per‑share purchase price in that financing. If no such financing occurs by the eighteen‑month maturity, Mr. Chen may elect to convert the note into Class A ordinary shares based on the average closing price over the ten trading days before maturity.

Mr. Chen holds 138,334 Class A ordinary shares directly, and King Regent holds 763,028 shares. In addition, on March 15, 2026, 5,000 restricted stock units granted to Mr. Chen vested, each representing the right to receive one Class A ordinary share.

Insights

Corporate governance and capital structure analyst

Filing highlights concentrated insider ownership and a new $2M insider bridge loan.

This Schedule 13D/A shows that Hung‑Wen Chen and his wholly owned vehicle King Regent Management Limited beneficially own 901,362 Class A ordinary shares of Apollomics Inc., or 41.8% of the class. That level of ownership implies significant influence over shareholder decisions.

The filing also describes a $2,000,000 unsecured Convertible Promissory Note that Apollomics issued to Mr. Chen on March 30, 2026 as a bridge loan. The note automatically converts into equity if the company completes a “Next Equity Financing” raising at least $10,000,000, at a conversion price equal to 80% of the lowest per‑share price in that financing.

If no qualifying financing occurs by the eighteen‑month maturity, Mr. Chen can elect to convert based on the average closing price over the ten trading days before maturity. The filing also notes vesting of 5,000 restricted stock units on March 15, 2026, modestly increasing Mr. Chen’s equity exposure. Overall, the update is structurally important but does not by itself establish a clearly positive or negative financial impact.

Convertible Promissory Note financial

"entered into a Convertible Promissory Note (the "Note") with Mr. Hung-Wen"

A convertible promissory note is a loan a company takes now that can later be turned into shares instead of being repaid in cash. Think of it as lending money with the option to accept ownership in the business down the road; that matters to investors because it affects who gets paid first, how much ownership existing shareholders keep, and the company’s future valuation and cash needs. Terms such as conversion price, interest and maturity determine the financial impact.

bridge loan financial

"Mr. Chen provided an unsecured bridge loan to the Company in the principal amount"

A bridge loan is a short-term loan used to quickly provide funds until a larger, long-term financing option is in place. It acts like a temporary bridge, helping individuals or businesses cover immediate expenses or complete transactions without delay. For investors, it’s important because it offers quick access to cash but often comes with higher costs and short repayment periods.

Next Equity Financing financial

"upon the closing of the Company's next equity financing that raises aggregate gross proceeds of not less than $10,000,000 (the "Next Equity Financing")"

restricted stock units financial

"On March 15, 2026, 5,000 shares of the restricted stock units has vested"

Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.

beneficially owned financial

"Aggregate amount beneficially owned by each reporting person 901,362.00"

Beneficially owned describes securities or assets where a person has the economic rights and control—such as the right to receive dividends and to direct voting—even if legal title is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and using a car that’s registered to someone else: you get the benefits and make decisions. Investors care because beneficial ownership reveals who truly controls value and voting power, affecting corporate decisions and takeover dynamics.

Percent of class financial

"Percent of class represented by amount in Row (11) 41.8 %"

Percent of class is the portion of a specific category of securities—such as a company’s common shares, preferred shares, or a bond series—that takes part in or approves a corporate action (vote, consent, tender, etc.). Investors watch this number because it reveals how much support or opposition exists within that particular shareholder group; like counting how many members of a club back a proposal, it can determine whether a plan passes or how influence is distributed.
