Insights

Fund tied to a Korro Bio director increased its position via warrants and shares.

Entities related to Ali Behbahani acquired Pre-Funded Warrants and Common Stock directly from Korro Bio under a subscription agreement dated March 9, 2026. These are classified as grants or awards, not open-market purchases.

The 242,945 Pre-Funded Warrants carry a token $0.001 exercise price but include a Beneficial Ownership Limitation at 9.99%, adjustable up to 19.99% with 61 days’ notice. This clause governs how much can be exercised at any time.

Indirectly held Common Stock rose to 1,297,893 shares, but Behbahani disclaims beneficial ownership where he has no pecuniary interest. Overall, the transactions look like participation in a financing rather than a discretionary market bet, so their informational signal is modest.
