[SCHEDULE 13G] Purple Biotech Ltd. American SEC Filing
Purple Biotech Ltd. received a joint Schedule 13G from Mitchell P. Kopin, Daniel B. Asher and Intracoastal Capital LLC reporting shared beneficial ownership of 139,632,475 ordinary shares, representing 9.99% of the class as of September 10, 2025. The filing explains those shares include issued shares and shares issuable on exercise of two warrants, but each warrant contains a blocker provision preventing exercise that would increase beneficial ownership above 9.99%. The reporting persons state the holdings were not acquired to change or influence issuer control and filed a joint filing agreement.
- Transparent disclosure of beneficial ownership at 9.99% by three reporting persons with a joint filing agreement
- Blocker provisions in the warrants explicitly limit exercise that would push beneficial ownership above 9.99%, constraining immediate control shifts
- Substantial warrant exposure (multiple warrants and large numbers of issuable shares) creates potential future dilution if blocker provisions change
- High shared voting power (139,632,475 shares) signals concentrated influence despite the filing's certification of no intent to change control
Insights
TL;DR: A disclosed 9.99% position with large warrant exposure creates potential dilution but is contractually capped by blocker provisions.
The Reporting Persons disclose shared beneficial ownership of 139,632,475 shares (9.99%) including issued shares and warrants. Material to investors is the scale of potential dilution: absent blocker provisions, their combined holdings could represent hundreds of millions of shares. The presence of blocker provisions limits immediate exercise and control shifts, reducing near-term governance risk, but the warrants represent latent dilution that market participants should note when assessing share count dynamics.
TL;DR: Joint filing and certification indicate no stated intent to change control, while shared voting power is substantial.
The Schedule 13G is filed jointly and includes certifications that the securities were not acquired to influence control. Despite that, the Reporting Persons report shared voting power of 139,632,475 shares and shared dispositive power of 124,132,475 shares. The blocker provisions on warrants limit conversion-triggered control changes, but the filing highlights significant coordinated influence potential given the large shared voting stake.
