Rhea-AI Filing Summary

SpringWorks Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: SWTX) filed seven Post-Effective Amendments on Form S-8 to deregister all unsold shares previously registered for issuance under its 2019 employee equity plans. The action follows the closing of its merger with Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany on 1 July 2025, under which SpringWorks became a wholly owned subsidiary of Merck through EMD Holdings Merger Sub, Inc.

The amendments cover the following historical S-8 registrations:

  • Reg. Nos. 333-234365, 333-237350, 333-253531, 333-262996, 333-270096, 333-277380 and 333-285076.
  • In aggregate, these filings had registered tens of millions of common shares for the 2019 Stock Option & Incentive Plan, the Amended & Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan and the 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Because the company is now private, SpringWorks has terminated all offerings under these plans. Consistent with undertakings in each registration statement, any securities that remained unsold as of the merger date are withdrawn from registration. The filing is signed on behalf of the company by Secretary Michael MacDougall and relies on Rule 478 of the Securities Act to omit additional signatures.

The amendments are largely administrative, signalling the end of SpringWorks’ status as an independent public issuer and the cessation of share issuance under its legacy equity compensation and ESPP programmes.

SpringWorks Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: SWTX) ha presentato sette emendamenti post-effettivi sul modulo S-8 per cancellare la registrazione di tutte le azioni invendute precedentemente registrate per l'emissione nell'ambito dei suoi piani azionari per i dipendenti del 2019. Questa azione segue la conclusione della fusione con Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germania, avvenuta il 1° luglio 2025, in base alla quale SpringWorks è diventata una controllata interamente posseduta da Merck tramite EMD Holdings Merger Sub, Inc.

Gli emendamenti riguardano le seguenti registrazioni storiche S-8:

  • Numeri di registrazione 333-234365, 333-237350, 333-253531, 333-262996, 333-270096, 333-277380 e 333-285076.
  • In totale, queste registrazioni avevano coperto decine di milioni di azioni ordinarie per il Piano di Stock Option e Incentivi 2019, il Piano di Incentivi Azionari Modificato e Rifirmato 2019 e il Piano di Acquisto Azionario per Dipendenti 2019.

Poiché la società è ora privata, SpringWorks ha terminato tutte le offerte previste da questi piani. In linea con gli impegni presi in ogni dichiarazione di registrazione, qualsiasi titolo rimasto invenduto alla data della fusione è stato ritirato dalla registrazione. Il deposito è firmato per conto della società dal segretario Michael MacDougall e si avvale della Regola 478 del Securities Act per omettere firme aggiuntive.

Gli emendamenti sono principalmente di natura amministrativa, segnando la fine dello status di SpringWorks come emittente pubblica indipendente e la cessazione dell’emissione di azioni nell’ambito dei suoi programmi di compensazione azionaria e del piano ESPP legacy.

SpringWorks Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: SWTX) presentó siete enmiendas post-efectivas en el Formulario S-8 para cancelar la inscripción de todas las acciones no vendidas previamente registradas para su emisión bajo sus planes de acciones para empleados de 2019. Esta acción sigue al cierre de su fusión con Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Alemania, el 1 de julio de 2025, bajo la cual SpringWorks se convirtió en una subsidiaria de propiedad total de Merck a través de EMD Holdings Merger Sub, Inc.

Las enmiendas cubren las siguientes inscripciones históricas S-8:

  • Números de registro 333-234365, 333-237350, 333-253531, 333-262996, 333-270096, 333-277380 y 333-285076.
  • En conjunto, estas inscripciones habían registrado decenas de millones de acciones ordinarias para el Plan de Opciones sobre Acciones e Incentivos 2019, el Plan Modificado y Restablecido de Incentivos de Capital 2019 y el Plan de Compra de Acciones para Empleados 2019.

Dado que la compañía ahora es privada, SpringWorks ha terminado todas las ofertas bajo estos planes. Conforme a los compromisos en cada declaración de registro, cualquier valor que permaneciera sin vender a la fecha de la fusión ha sido retirado de la inscripción. La presentación está firmada en nombre de la compañía por el secretario Michael MacDougall y se basa en la Regla 478 de la Ley de Valores para omitir firmas adicionales.

Las enmiendas son en gran medida administrativas, señalando el fin del estatus de SpringWorks como emisor público independiente y la cesación de la emisión de acciones bajo sus programas heredados de compensación de capital y ESPP.

SpringWorks Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: SWTX)는 2019년 직원 주식 계획 하에 발행을 위해 이전에 등록된 판매되지 않은 모든 주식의 등록을 말소하기 위해 7건의 Form S-8 사후 효력 수정서를 제출했습니다. 이 조치는 2025년 7월 1일 독일 다름슈타트에 위치한 Merck KGaA와의 합병 완료에 따른 것으로, SpringWorks는 EMD Holdings Merger Sub, Inc.를 통해 Merck의 완전 자회사로 편입되었습니다.

수정서는 다음의 과거 S-8 등록을 포함합니다:

  • 등록 번호 333-234365, 333-237350, 333-253531, 333-262996, 333-270096, 333-277380, 333-285076.
  • 이 등록들은 2019년 주식매수선택권 및 인센티브 계획, 개정 및 재확인된 2019년 주식 인센티브 계획, 2019년 직원 주식 구매 계획에 대해 수천만 주의 보통주를 등록한 바 있습니다.

회사가 이제 비상장사가 되었으므로 SpringWorks는 이들 계획에 따른 모든 제공을 종료했습니다. 각 등록 서류에 명시된 약속에 따라 합병일 기준으로 판매되지 않은 증권은 등록에서 철회되었습니다. 이 제출 서류는 회사의 비서인 Michael MacDougall이 서명했으며, 추가 서명 생략을 위해 증권법 제478조를 근거로 합니다.

이 수정서는 주로 행정적 성격이며, SpringWorks가 독립적인 상장 발행인 지위를 종료하고 기존의 주식 보상 및 ESPP 프로그램에 따른 주식 발행이 중단되었음을 알립니다.

Insights

TL;DR: Administrative deregistration after Merck buyout; neutral to public investors as SWTX no longer trades independently.

The filing merely formalises housekeeping steps required after the close of Merck KGaA’s acquisition of SpringWorks. By withdrawing unsold shares from seven S-8 registrations, management eliminates public float expansion risk and ends equity-based incentive issuance in the public market. No financial metrics, earn-outs or revised consideration are disclosed. The event confirms completion of the merger but provides no incremental valuation information, making it operationally neutral for investors who have already tendered or converted their shares.

TL;DR: Filing cleans up SEC shelf obligations, ensuring compliance post-privatisation.

Rule 478 allows single-signature deregistration of unsold securities, reducing administrative burden. By terminating its equity plans, SpringWorks limits legacy governance overlap with Merck’s policies and mitigates potential future dilution claims. All undertakings under each S-8 are now satisfied, removing latent disclosure and reporting responsibilities. This is standard practice and conveys no positive or negative governance surprise; it simply reflects best-practice compliance following a change-of-control transaction.
