RTW Investments, LP and Roderick Wong report shared beneficial ownership of 9,474,397 ordinary shares of COMPASS Pathways plc, representing 9.99% of the outstanding shares on a fully exercised-warrant basis. The filing states the reported amount assumes exercise of warrants to purchase 1,252,468 shares but limits exercise so the holders will not exceed 9.99% ownership. Voting and dispositive power are shared; neither reporting person claims sole voting or dispositive power. The shares are held by RTW Funds and RTW Master Fund, Ltd. is identified as having the right to receive proceeds or dividends for more than 5% of the reported shares. The filing was signed by Roderick Wong as Managing Partner of RTW Investments.
Positive
Clear disclosure of the stake size including warrant assumptions (1,252,468 warrants) demonstrating transparency
Classification as passive under Schedule 13G/A with the ordinary-course certification, indicating no claimed intent to change control
Negative
Near-10% position could attract market and governance attention despite passive classification
Shared voting/dispositive power limits clarity on which entity ultimately directs actions absent further detail
Insights
TL;DR: RTW reports a near-10% passive stake in COMPASS Pathways via RTW Funds, with shared voting/dispositive authority and warrant-based share counting.
The Schedule 13G/A shows RTW Investments and Dr. Roderick Wong collectively beneficially own 9,474,397 shares, calculated as 9.99% of 93,586,348 outstanding shares when including exercise of 1,252,468 warrants. Ownership is reported as shared voting and dispositive power, indicating the position is held on behalf of RTW Funds rather than for sole control. The filing also identifies RTW Master Fund, Ltd. as holding rights to proceeds or dividends for over 5% of the reported shares. This is a passive disclosure under Schedule 13G/A rather than an active 13D control filing.
TL;DR: The disclosure signals a sizable institutional stake near the 10% threshold, with explicit warrant assumptions and shared authority—standard governance notice.
The document clarifies that warrants (1,252,468) are included in the beneficial ownership calculation but that exercise is constrained to avoid exceeding the 9.99% cap. Shared voting and dispositive power are disclosed, and the filing includes the statutory certification about ordinary-course investment intent. The form classifies RTW Investments as an investment adviser and Dr. Wong as a control/holding person related to that adviser. No assertion of an intent to influence control is made in the certification.
