[SCHEDULE 13G/A] Taysha Gene Therapies, Inc. SEC Filing

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

RA Capital and affiliated persons reported a near-10% position in Taysha Gene Therapies (TSHA). The filing shows each Reporting Person beneficially owns 25,345,988 shares, representing 9.99% of the class as of June 30, 2025, limited by a Beneficial Ownership Blocker in pre-funded warrants. The Fund directly holds 23,555,648 shares and pre-funded warrants exercisable for up to 52,134,718 shares, but cannot exercise warrants that would raise ownership above the 9.99% threshold. RA Capital is the investment adviser with sole voting and dispositive power delegated by the Fund; Dr. Kolchinsky and Mr. Shah are identified as controlling persons.

Insights

Financial Analyst

TL;DR: RA Capital discloses a substantial, capped stake in TSHA (9.99%), implying material investor interest but limited immediate dilution from warrant exercise.

The filing documents a meaningful position of 25,345,988 shares (9.99%) held directly or via pre-funded warrants subject to an exercise blocker. This ownership level is material for investors because it signals concentrated institutional exposure and potential influence via delegated voting power to RA Capital. The exercise blocker constrains immediate additional dilution or control shifts, leaving potential for future ownership changes if the blocker conditions change. Reporting transparency and delegation of voting/dispositive authority are important for assessing stewardship and potential activism.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR: Governance implications are notable: RA Capital holds delegated sole voting/dispositive power, while the Fund’s pre-funded warrants are limited by a 9.99% ownership cap.

The Schedule 13G clarifies that RA Capital exercises voting and investment authority for the Fund and that the Fund has a contractual ownership blocker preventing exercise beyond 9.99%. That combination means RA Capital effectively controls voting decisions on the reported stake, but structural limits on warrant exercise reduce the immediate scope for increasing ownership. The filing’s disclaimers about beneficial ownership and group formation are standard but important for interpreting potential coordination among filing parties.

Item 4.	Ownership
(a)	Amount beneficially owned: Row 9 of each Reporting Person's cover page to this Schedule 13G sets forth the aggregate number of securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by such Reporting Person as of June 30, 2025 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 25,345,988 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, 2025. Such percentage is based upon the sum of (i) 214,661,715 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock outstanding as of May 15, 2015, as reported in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on May 15, 2025, (ii) 46,868,687 shares of Common Stock that were sold by the Issuer in connection with its public offering as described in the Issuer's Prospectus Supplement filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b)(5) on May 28, 2025 and (iii) 1,790,340 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%.

	(i) Sole power to vote or to direct the vote: Row 5 of each Reporting Person's cover page to this Schedule 13G sets forth the sole power to vote or to direct the vote of securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by such Reporting Person as of June 30, 2025 and is incorporated by reference.
