Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Key event: Form 4 discloses that director David M. Tanen has disposed of 100 % of his equity position in Kronos Bio (KRON) on 20 June 2025.

The disposition covers 887,408 common shares (363,428 held directly and 523,980 held through a revocable trust and family members) at the previously announced tender-offer cash price of $0.57 per share plus one non-transferable contingent value right (CVR) per share. All positions are now reported as zero.

Simultaneously, 227,100 stock options with exercise prices ranging from $0.95 to $24.18 were cancelled pursuant to the merger terms. Options with strike prices below $0.57 became fully vested and entitled the holder to a cash-out equal to the intrinsic value (cash amount minus exercise price) plus one CVR per underlying share; options that were at or above $0.57 received no consideration.

The transactions were executed in accordance with the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated 1 May 2025 among Kronos Bio, Concentra Biosciences, and Merger Sub IV. Concentra completed the tender offer on 18 June 2025 and immediately merged with Kronos Bio, which now operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of Concentra. At the effective time, all outstanding Kronos Bio shares (other than excluded shares) were cancelled and converted into the right to receive the offer price.

Following these actions, Mr. Tanen is no longer a beneficial owner of Kronos Bio securities, and Section 16 insider reporting obligations for this issuer will cease unless he acquires new positions.

Positive
  • Confirmation of merger completion: Filing validates that Concentra’s acquisition of Kronos Bio has closed and cash consideration was delivered as planned.
  • Equal treatment of insiders and public shareholders: Insider received the same $0.57 cash plus CVR package, indicating no preferential terms.
Negative
  • Cancellation of out-of-the-money options: Several option grants with exercise prices ≥ $0.57 were terminated for no consideration, eliminating potential upside for the insider.
  • Insider no longer holds shares: Director’s ownership falls to zero, removing alignment with any future CVR or legacy equity performance.

Insights

TL;DR: Insider exits all KRON holdings as merger completes; cash paid at $0.57 plus CVR, options cancelled per terms.

The Form 4 confirms the closing mechanics of Kronos Bio’s sale to Concentra Biosciences. All insider common shares—roughly 887 k—were tendered at $0.57, matching the public offer. The filing removes residual uncertainty about insider retention or post-merger stakes. Options with strikes below $0.57 generated limited cash value; those at or above the cash amount were cancelled without payment, illustrating that much of management’s option package was out-of-the-money. Overall, the disclosure is a procedural endpoint rather than a performance signal, but it affirms that minority shareholders received identical treatment to insiders.

TL;DR: Filing evidences final step of tender-offer/merger process; director’s holdings zeroed, confirming deal consummation.

The document provides granular proof that the May 1 Merger Agreement reached full closure. Payment terms—$0.57 cash plus CVR—were executed uniformly across direct, trust, and family accounts, and all derivative instruments were settled or extinguished as specified. Such filings are routine yet important: they start the statute of limitations clock for dissent claims and demonstrate compliance with Rule 10b5-1. From an investor lens, the impact is largely absorbed; trading in KRON will soon cease, and residual value rests solely in the CVR, whose economics are not detailed here. Impact rating is neutral because no new economic consideration is introduced beyond previously published terms.

Explanation of Responses:
1. Disposed of pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), dated as of May 1, 2025, by and among Kronos Bio, Inc. (the "Issuer"), Concentra Biosciences, LLC ("Parent") and Concentra Merger Sub IV, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"). On June 18, 2025, Parent and Merger Sub completed a tender offer pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement for all outstanding shares of common stock of the Issuer (each, a "Share") for an offer price of (i) $0.57 per Share in cash (the "Cash Amount"), and (ii) one non-transferable contractual contingent value right (each, a "CVR"), subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Contingent Value Rights Agreement (the "CVR Agreement"), in each case, without interest, and subject to any applicable withholding taxes (the Cash Amount plus one CVR, collectively, the "Offer Price").[continues to Footnote 2]
2. [continues from Footnote 1] Merger Sub thereafter merged with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the "Merger"). At the effective time of the Merger, each issued and outstanding Share (other than any Excluded Shares (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement)) was cancelled in exchange for the right to receive the Offer Price.
3. By the David Tanen Revocable Grantor Trust.
4. As of immediately prior to and conditioned upon the effective time of the effective time of the Merger, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each outstanding option to purchase Shares (each, an "Option") became fully vested and exercisable, and to the extent not exercised prior to the effective time of the Merger, was cancelled and converted into the right to receive (a) an amount in cash (without interest and subject to deduction for any required withholding tax) equal to the product of (1) the excess, if any, of the Cash Amount over the exercise price per share of each such Option and (2) the number of Shares underlying such Option immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger and (b) one CVR in respect of each Share underlying such Option; provided, however, that if the exercise price per Share of any Option was equal to or greater than the Cash Amount that was then outstanding it was cancelled for no consideration.
