Overview
International law firm McDermott Will & Schulte represented ADAR1 Capital Management, LLC (ADAR1 Capital) in its campaign at Keros Therapeutics, Inc. (Keros), which resulted in a significant return of capital to Keros shareholders. On October 15, 2025, Keros announced its agreement to repurchase ADAR1 Capital’s entire stake, the launch of a public tender offer, and a commitment to distribute 25% of any net cash proceeds it receives from its global licensing agreement with Takeda Pharmaceuticals U.S.A., Inc. before December 31, 2028, to Keros stockholders. The announcement followed ADAR1 Capital’s “withhold” campaign at Keros’ 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
