Practically, this is an ownership-status update; timing and any prior ownership changes are not detailed here, so subsequent filings or prior reports would be needed to trace past positions.
A Schedule 13G/A is an amended public filing with the U.S. securities regulator that updates a previous Schedule 13G, disclosing when an individual or group holds a substantial (typically over 5%) stake in a company and is claiming a passive, non‑controlling intent. Investors monitor these updates because rising or falling holdings can signal changing confidence, potential future moves, or shifts in voting power — like watching a public ledger where large shareholders quietly adjust their positions.
Beneficially owned describes securities or assets where a person has the economic rights and control—such as the right to receive dividends and to direct voting—even if legal title is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and using a car that’s registered to someone else: you get the benefits and make decisions. Investors care because beneficial ownership reveals who truly controls value and voting power, affecting corporate decisions and takeover dynamics.
It is an amended passive ownership disclosure filed under Schedule 13G/A. The amendment states that Baselake Partners, Baselake Management and David Paolella report 0 shares beneficially owned as set out in Item 4, with signatures dated 05/12/2026.
Does the filing show how many KZR shares Baselake previously owned?
The amendment itself reports current holdings as 0 shares. It does not provide a historical ownership timeline; prior Schedule 13 filings or amendments would need to be reviewed to see earlier reported positions.
