Insights
TL;DR Selling stockholders completed a sizeable secondary offering and agreed to short-term lock-ups, temporarily increasing sell-side supply.
The filing confirms a registered secondary offering of 5,713,353 Ordinary Shares at $13.75 per share with net proceeds of $13.20 per share and an exercised over-allotment of 857,002 shares, resulting in 6,570,355 shares sold by the Reporting Persons on September 18, 2025. The presence of 60-day lock-up agreements reduces immediate additional selling risk from these parties, but the completed sale increased freely tradable shares. This disclosure is transactional and does not report other changes to holdings or governance.
TL;DR Underwriting and over-allotment followed standard market practice for a secondary offering, with formal lock-ups in place.
The Underwriting Agreement and exercised Over-allotment Option were executed with underwriters led by Mizuho Securities USA LLC and Raymond James & Associates, Inc., and exhibits for the Underwriting Agreement and Lock-Up Agreement are incorporated by reference in the filing. The structure and timeline—agreement on September 16, option exercise September 17, and closing September 18, 2025—are consistent with routine secondary transactions. No other strategic arrangements, governance changes or litigation disclosures are reported in this amendment.
