Insights
Large shared position disclosed at roughly 8.9%.
The filing lists shared voting and dispositive power of 12,635,875 shares for Perceptive Advisors, Joseph Edelman and the Master Fund. It explains that the reported 8.9% percentage is based on 132,032,636 shares outstanding as of May 1, 2026 and assumes exercise of Warrants for 10,320,875 shares.
Key dependency: the Warrants carry a contractual cap—they may not be exercised to exceed 9.99% beneficial ownership. Subsequent filings may disclose exercises or changes in the outstanding share count that alter the percentage.
Disclosure ties beneficial ownership to warrant exercise limits under Section 13(d).
The statement clarifies who holds direct shares and who holds warrants: the Master Fund holds direct shares and various warrants including Pre-Funded Warrants and two series of common warrants. The filing explicitly ties the exercisability of those Warrants to a 9.99% beneficial ownership cap.
Practical point: cash‑flow treatment or timing of any exercise is not stated here; any change in ownership from warrant exercise will require further Section 13D/G or Form 4/5 filings as applicable.

Key Terms
Pre-Funded Warrants, Section 13(d), beneficially own
3 terms
Pre-Funded Warrantsfinancial
"pre-funded warrants (the "Pre-Funded Warrants") to purchase 790,000 shares"
Pre-funded warrants are financial instruments that give investors the right to purchase a company's stock at a set price, but with most or all of the purchase price paid upfront. They function like a coupon or gift card for stock, allowing investors to buy shares later at a fixed price, which can be beneficial if they want to avoid future price increases. This makes them important for investors seeking flexibility and certainty in their investment plans.
Section 13(d)regulatory
"as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act"
beneficially ownregulatory
"would beneficially own, as determined in accordance with Section 13(d)"
Beneficially own means having the economic rights and risks of a security—such as the right to receive dividends, sell the shares, or profit from price changes—whether or not your name appears on the official share register. Think of it like renting a car: you use it and reap the benefits even if the title lists someone else. Investors care because beneficial ownership determines who truly controls value, must be disclosed under securities rules, and can signal potential influence or trading activity that affects a stock’s price.

Does the filing limit warrant exercises for Perceptive and affiliates?

On what share count is the 8.9% ownership percentage based?
