Insights

Mural Oncology’s all-cash acquisition leads to cancellation of higher-priced director stock options.

The disclosure shows that XRA 5 Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of XOMA Royalty Corporation, acquired all the issued and to be issued share capital of Mural Oncology plc for a cash price of $2.035 per ordinary share. The acquisition became effective on December 5, 2025, which the document refers to as the Effective Time.

Under the Agreement, each option to purchase ordinary shares with an exercise price per share equal to or greater than the $2.035 Scheme Consideration was cancelled and ceased to be outstanding, with no Scheme Consideration delivered for those options. For this director, Table II lists stock options over 8,637 shares at an exercise price of $2.56 expiring on June 10, 2035, 8,462 shares at $3.35 expiring on May 29, 2034, and 15,021 shares at $3.61 expiring on December 13, 2033, all now reported with zero derivative securities beneficially owned following the transactions.

This treatment removes options with exercise prices at or above the deal price from the director’s holdings and from potential future equity issuance linked to those grants. The key takeaway is confirmation that the all-cash acquisition closed on the stated terms and that these higher-priced option awards were eliminated as part of the transaction mechanics.
