RA Capital Management and affiliated funds filed an amended Schedule 13G reporting their beneficial ownership in Taysha Gene Therapies, Inc. common stock as of June 30, 2026. The RA Capital Healthcare Fund directly holds 23,555,648 shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants exercisable for up to 52,134,718 additional shares.
Because the pre-funded warrants include a Beneficial Ownership Blocker set at 9.99%, only 9,330,594 warrant shares are currently included in beneficial ownership, bringing total counted beneficial ownership to 32,886,242 shares, or 9.99% of Taysha’s common stock. Voting and dispositive power over these securities is delegated to RA Capital, with RA Capital, Peter Kolchinsky, and Rajeev Shah each disclaiming beneficial ownership except for Section 13(d) reporting purposes.

Pre-Funded Warrantsfinancial
"The Fund directly holds 23,555,648 shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants"
Pre-funded warrants are financial instruments that give investors the right to purchase a company's stock at a set price, but with most or all of the purchase price paid upfront. They function like a coupon or gift card for stock, allowing investors to buy shares later at a fixed price, which can be beneficial if they want to avoid future price increases. This makes them important for investors seeking flexibility and certainty in their investment plans.
Beneficial Ownership Blockerfinancial
"The Pre-Funded Warrants contain a provision (the "Beneficial Ownership Blocker")"
A beneficial ownership blocker is a legal or structural device that prevents a shareholder from being treated as the ultimate owner of enough shares to trigger control, reporting, or voting thresholds. Think of it like a speed bump that stops an investor from reaching a stake size that would force corporate disclosure or change control rights. Investors care because it affects who controls the company, how shares vote, regulatory filings, takeover risk and therefore potential value or liquidity of their holdings.
beneficial ownerfinancial
"may be deemed a beneficial owner, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act"
A beneficial owner is the person who ultimately owns or controls a financial asset or property, even if their name isn't directly on official documents. Think of it like someone who secretly holds the keys to a safe deposit box—others may appear to have access, but the true owner is the one who benefits from what's inside. Identifying beneficial owners helps ensure transparency and prevent illegal activities like money laundering or fraud.
Section 13(d) of the Actregulatory
"for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act, of any securities of the Issuer"
investment adviserfinancial
"RA Capital serves as investment adviser for the Fund and may be deemed"
An investment adviser is a person or firm that professionally manages money and gives recommendations about buying, selling, or holding investments. Like a financial coach or guide, they have a legal duty to act in a client's best financial interest, so their advice, fees and potential conflicts can directly affect returns and risk — making their role important for investors who want informed, accountable help with portfolios.
Schedule 13Gregulatory
"The Reporting Persons expressly disclaim status as a "group" for purposes of this /A"
A Schedule 13G is a formal document that investors file with the government when they acquire a large ownership stake in a company, usually for investment purposes rather than control. It helps keep the public informed about who owns significant parts of a company's shares, which can influence how the company is managed and how investors make decisions. Filing this schedule is important for transparency and understanding the ownership landscape of publicly traded companies.

Item 4.
Ownership
(a)
Amount beneficially owned:
Row 9 of each Reporting Person's cover page to this Schedule 13G/A sets forth the aggregate number of shares of common stock of the Issuer beneficially owned by such Reporting Person as of June 30, 2026 and is incorporated by reference.
The Fund directly holds 23,555,648 shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants ("Pre-Funded Warrants") exercisable for up to 52,134,718 shares of common stock. The Pre-Funded Warrants contain a provision (the "Beneficial Ownership Blocker"), which precludes the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants to the extent that, following exercise, the Fund, together with its affiliates and other attribution parties, would own more than 9.99% of the common stock outstanding. The Fund is currently prohibited from exercising a portion of the Pre-Funded Warrants to the extent that such exercise would result in beneficial ownership of more than 32,886,242 shares of common stock.
RA Capital Healthcare Fund GP, LLC is the general partner of the Fund. The general partner of RA Capital is RA Capital Management GP, LLC, of which Dr. Kolchinsky and Mr. Shah are the controlling persons. RA Capital serves as investment adviser for the Fund and may be deemed a beneficial owner, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act, of any securities of the Issuer held by the Fund. The Fund has delegated to RA Capital the sole power to vote and the sole power to dispose of all securities held in the Fund's portfolio, including the shares of the Issuer's Common Stock reported herein. Because the Fund has divested voting and investment power over the reported securities it holds and may not revoke that delegation on less than 61 days' notice, the Fund disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities it holds for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act. As managers of RA Capital, Dr. Kolchinsky and Mr. Shah may be deemed beneficial owners, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act, of any securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by RA Capital. RA Capital, Dr. Kolchinsky, and Mr. Shah disclaim beneficial ownership of the securities reported in this Schedule 13G other than for the purpose of determining their obligations under Section 13(d) of the Act, and the filing of this Schedule 13G shall not be deemed an admission that either RA Capital, Dr. Kolchinsky, or Mr. Shah is the beneficial owner of such securities for any other purpose.
(b)
Percent of class:
Due to the Beneficial Ownership Blocker listed in the Pre-Funded Warrants, each Reporting Person's beneficial ownership percentage was 9.99% as of June 30, 2026. Such percentage is based upon the sum of (i) 287,361,020 shares of the Issuer's common stock outstanding as of May 6, 2026, as reported in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on May 6, 2026, (ii) 32,500,001 shares of common stock issued by the Issuer on June 5, 2026, as reported in the Issuer's Prospectus Supplement filed with the SEC on June 25, 2026, and (iii) 9,330,594 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants. Due to field limitations of the EDGAR filing system, the percentages listed in row 11 of the Reporting Persons' cover pages have been rounded down to 9.9%.
