AquaBounty Technologies Schedule 13G reports that About Investment Pte. Ltd. and Jiaming Li are the beneficial owners of 337,355 shares of Common Stock. The filing states there were 5,147,204 shares outstanding as of May 5, 2026, giving the reporting persons 6.15% ownership.
The 337,355 shares represent Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock held by About Investment; conversions are subject to a beneficial ownership limitation (the "Blocker") that limits conversion so holders do not exceed 19.99% without stockholder approval. Mr. Li is reported as having shared voting and dispositive power by virtue of his role with About Investment.

Certificate of Designationsregulatory
"contained in the issuer's Certificate of Designations of the Preferred Stock"
A certificate of designations is a formal legal document that spells out the specific rights and rules attached to a particular class of stock, most often preferred shares. It tells investors who gets paid first, what dividends or conversion rights exist, and any voting or liquidation priorities—like an instruction sheet that decides which shareholders get preference if a company pays out or is sold. Those terms directly affect a security’s value and risk.
Rule 13d-3regulatory
"By reason of the provisions of Rule 13d-3 of the Act, Mr. Li may be deemed to beneficially own the Shares"
Rule 13d-3 defines who is treated as the beneficial owner of a company’s shares for U.S. securities disclosure rules — essentially anyone who has the power to vote or direct how shares are voted, or the power to buy or sell them, even if they don’t hold the certificates. For investors this matters because crossing certain ownership thresholds triggers public filing and disclosure obligations and signals potential control or influence, much like having the keys to a car implies you can drive it even if it’s registered to someone else.
About Investment beneficially owns 337,355 shares of AQB, equal to 6.15% of common stock. This figure is based on 5,147,204 shares outstanding as of May 5, 2026, as disclosed in the filing's cited Form 10-Q.
How are the 337,355 AQB shares generated?
The 337,355 shares are issuable upon conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock held by About Investment. Conversions are subject to a beneficial ownership limitation (Blocker) described in the Certificate of Designations.
Does Jiaming Li directly own the AQB shares reported?
Mr. Li does not directly own the 337,355 shares; the filing states he has shared voting and dispositive power through About Investment. By Rule 13d-3, he may be deemed to beneficially own the shares due to his control role.
What is the Blocker limitation mentioned in the AQB filing?
The Blocker prevents conversion of Preferred Stock if, after conversion, holders would receive more than 19.99% of outstanding common stock unless stockholder approval is obtained or exchange rules permit otherwise, per the Certificate of Designations.
How many Preferred shares and potential common shares does About Investment hold?
About Investment holds 86,478 shares of Preferred Stock, convertible into up to 1,729,560 shares of common stock, subject to the Blocker limitation described in the filing.
