The Schedule 13G lists Invus Public Equities with 2,719,707 ADSs and Avicenna Fund with 429,342 ADSs as of February 25, 2026, with percentage calculations based on 49,929,952 Shares outstanding as of October 27, 2025. The filing attributes beneficial ownership through the managing entities, showing layered control by Invus affiliates and Mr. Raymond Debbane.
