EcoR1 Capital, LLC, together with its affiliated fund and managing member Oleg Nodelman, filed a Form 4 disclosing the cashless exercise of 5,086,521 pre-funded warrants in Zymeworks Inc. (ticker: ZYME) on 26 Jun 2025.
- The warrants carried a nominal exercise price of $0.0001 per share. To settle the aggregate exercise price, the reporting persons instructed the issuer to withhold 41 shares (valued at $12.71 each), issuing the remaining 5,086,480 new common shares.
- Following the transaction, EcoR1’s Qualified Fund owns 21,582,563 ZYME shares and the group reports total indirect beneficial ownership of 22,970,388 shares.
- The derivative position (pre-funded warrants) is now fully exhausted; the reporting persons hold 0 derivative securities post-transaction.
- EcoR1 and Mr. Nodelman are both classified as 10% owners and hold board seats, reinforcing their strategic involvement with the company.
The filing signals continued insider alignment through an increase in equity exposure; however, it also converts previously outstanding warrants into issued equity, modestly expanding the public float.
Zymeworks (Nasdaq: ZYME) filed an 8-K announcing two material events.
- Amendment: The company removed the 19.99 % ownership cap from 5,086,521 pre-funded warrants originally sold to EcoR1 in December 2023.
- Exercise: On June 26 2025 the warrants were net-exercised at $0.0001; 5,086,480 common shares were issued on June 27 2025.
The exercise lifted the warrant overhang but adds ≈6.8 % to the basic share count, which now totals 74,844,505. Because the warrants were already deeply in-the-money, cash proceeds were immaterial (≈$509) and no additional capital was raised. EcoR1—already a >5 % holder with board representation—can now exceed the prior 19.99 % limit, increasing ownership concentration and voting power.
