RA Capital trims Vor Biopharma (VOR) stake, still owns 19.9%

RA Capital Management and its affiliated funds have reported a slight reduction in their beneficial ownership of Vor Biopharma (VOR) common stock. Despite recent open-market sales, RA Capital still maintains a significant 19.9% stake in the company, which includes a mix of common shares, common stock warrants, and pre-funded warrants. The firm's ownership is subject to a "Beneficial Ownership Blocker" that limits its exercise of pre-funded warrants to prevent exceeding 19.99% ownership.
