The undersigned acknowledge and agree that the foregoing statement on SCHEDULE 13G/A, is filed on behalf of each of the undersigned and that all subsequent amendments to this statement on SCHEDULE 13G/A, shall be filed on behalf of each of the undersigned without the necessity of filing additional joint acquisition statements. The undersigned acknowledge that each shall be responsible for the timely filing of such amendments, and for the completeness and accuracy of the information concerning him or it contained therein, but shall not be responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the information concerning the others, except to the extent that he or it knows or has reason to believe that such information is inaccurate.
What stake in Inovio Pharmaceuticals (INO) does Alyeska report in this Schedule 13G/A?
Alyeska and related reporting persons disclose beneficial ownership of 4,000,000 shares of Inovio common stock. This position represents 5.99% of the company’s common stock, based on 66,729,675 shares outstanding referenced from a November 12, 2025 prospectus.
How is Alyeska’s 5.99% ownership in Inovio (INO) structured?
The reporting persons state they hold warrants to purchase 4,000,000 shares of Inovio common stock. Voting and dispositive power over these shares is reported as shared, with no sole voting or dispositive power attributed to any individual reporting person.
Who are the reporting persons in the Inovio (INO) Schedule 13G/A filing?
The filing lists three reporting persons: Alyeska Investment Group, L.P., Alyeska Fund GP, LLC, and Anand Parekh. Each reports the same 4,000,000 shares beneficially owned and the same 5.99% percentage of Inovio’s outstanding common stock.
Does Alyeska’s Inovio (INO) Schedule 13G/A indicate an attempt to influence control?
The certification states the securities were acquired and are held in the ordinary course of business. It further notes they were not acquired and are not held for the purpose of changing or influencing control of Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
What outstanding share count did Alyeska use to calculate its 5.99% Inovio (INO) stake?
The filing explains that the 5.99% ownership figure assumes 66,729,675 shares of Inovio common stock outstanding. This figure is taken from Inovio’s prospectus filed with the SEC on November 12, 2025.
What type of securities underpin Alyeska’s reported Inovio (INO) ownership?
The reporting persons disclose that they hold warrants to purchase 4,000,000 shares of Inovio common stock. These warrants, rather than currently issued common shares, are the basis for the beneficial ownership reported in the Schedule 13G/A amendment.
