Insights
Large financial firm reports a 6.8% stake in IRAB via joint Schedule 13G.
The filing lists 1,172,032 shares and 6.8% ownership as of 03/31/2026, with CUSIP G4940M109. It is filed jointly by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC under a Joint Filing Agreement dated 04/27/2026.
Disclosure states the holdings are attributed to Goldman Sachs reporting units and that certain client or other aggregated holdings are disclaimed. Subsequent filings would show any change in this passive ownership position.
Filing follows Schedule 13G procedures and cites parent/subsidiary attribution rules.
The exhibits include a Joint Filing Agreement and an Item 7 exhibit explaining that Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC is the subsidiary through which the parent holding company reports. The Item 4 exhibit contains standard disclaimers about client accounts and aggregated reporting units.
Qualifiers and disclaimers are preserved in the exhibits; the record shows passive/aggregated reporting rather than an active Form 13D-level control claim.

Schedule 13Gregulatory
"Item 1. Name of issuer: IRIS ACQUISITION CORP; form_type Schedule 13G"
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.
Beneficially ownedfinancial
"Item 4. Ownership (a) Amount beneficially owned: See the response(s) to Item 9"
Beneficially owned describes securities or assets where a person has the economic rights and control—such as the right to receive dividends and to direct voting—even if legal title is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and using a car that’s registered to someone else: you get the benefits and make decisions. Investors care because beneficial ownership reveals who truly controls value and voting power, affecting corporate decisions and takeover dynamics.

ITEM 4 INFORMATION
*In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Release No.
34-39538 (January 12, 1998) (the "Release"), this filing reflects the securities
beneficially owned by certain operating units (collectively, the "Goldman Sachs
Reporting Units") of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries and
affiliates (collectively, "GSG"). This filing does not reflect securities, if
any, beneficially owned by any operating units of GSG whose ownership of
securities is disaggregated from that of the Goldman Sachs Reporting Units in
accordance with the Release. The Goldman Sachs Reporting Units disclaim
beneficial ownership of the securities beneficially owned by (i) any client
accounts with respect to which the Goldman Sachs Reporting Units or their
employees have voting or investment discretion or both, or with respect to
which there are limits on their voting or investment authority or both and
(ii) certain investment entities of which the Goldman Sachs Reporting Units
act as the general partner, managing general partner or other manager, to the
extent interests in such entities are held by persons other than the Goldman
Sachs Reporting Units.

What dates are shown in the IRAB Schedule 13G filing?
The position is stated as of 03/31/2026 and signatures are dated 04/27/2026. The filing’s cover data and exhibits cite those dates alongside the CUSIP G4940M109 and the joint filing signatures.
