Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Assembly Biosciences, Inc. is reported to have 1,604,590 shares of common stock beneficially owned by investment partnerships managed by Farallon Capital Management, L.L.C., representing 8.1% of the outstanding shares. These holdings are attributed to several Farallon funds, while Farallon Capital Management and named managing members are reporting persons by virtue of their roles.

In addition, the Farallon funds hold 510,205 Class A Warrants, currently exercisable subject to limits, and 510,205 Class B Warrants, exercisable beginning on November 15, 2026. Each warrant is exercisable for one share, but a 4.99% Beneficial Ownership Limitation prevents exercises that would take the group’s beneficial ownership above that threshold. As a result, the 1,020,410 warrants are treated as not exercisable within 60 days and are excluded from the reported 8.1% beneficial ownership. The Farallon funds have the right to receive dividends and sale proceeds on the securities they hold.

Beneficial Ownership Limitation regulatory
"may not be exercised to the extent that, after giving effect... more than 4.99% of the Shares"
A beneficial ownership limitation is a rule that caps the percentage of a company’s shares an investor can be treated as owning or controlling for voting, regulatory or tax purposes. It matters to investors because it can restrict how many shares a person or group can buy or vote, affect takeover chances, and influence share liquidity and value — like a speed limit that prevents any single driver from taking over the whole road.
Schedule 13G regulatory
"Joint Acquisition Statement Pursuant to Section 240.13d-1(k)"
A Schedule 13G is a formal document that investors file with the government when they acquire a large ownership stake in a company, usually for investment purposes rather than control. It helps keep the public informed about who owns significant parts of a company's shares, which can influence how the company is managed and how investors make decisions. Filing this schedule is important for transparency and understanding the ownership landscape of publicly traded companies.
beneficially owned regulatory
"As of the date requiring the filing of this statement, the Farallon Funds hold an aggregate of"
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.
Class A Warrants financial
"510,205 Class A Warrants (the "Class A Warrants"), each of which currently is exercisable"
Class B Warrants financial
"510,205 Class B Warrants (the "Class B Warrants" and together with the Class A Warrants, the "Warrants")"
Class B warrants are tradable contracts that give the holder the right to buy a company's Class B shares at a fixed price before a set date. Think of them as a coupon for a specific model of a product: if the market price of those Class B shares rises above the coupon price, the warrant lets an investor buy shares more cheaply, offering leveraged upside but also the potential to dilute existing owners when converted.
