Keros Therapeutics, Inc.: Keros Announces Return of $375 Million in Excess Capital to Stockholders

LEXINGTON, Mass., June 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Keros Therapeutics, Inc. ("Keros" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: KROS), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing novel therapeutics to treat a wide range of patients with disorders that are linked to dysfunctional signaling of the transforming growth factor-beta ("TGF-ß") family of proteins, today announced that the Company has concluded its previously announced review process to evaluate strategic alternatives to maximize stockholder value for the Company. As a result of this process, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") unanimously determined to initiate a process to return $375 million of excess capital to stockholders. The terms and structure of this capital return remain under consideration and are expected to be announced at a future date.

Jean-Jacques Bienaimé, Lead Independent Director, said, "Our Board and management team are taking action to enhance stockholder value. To that end, we intend to return a significant amount of excess capital to stockholders while continuing to pursue development of our lead product candidate, KER-065, for the treatment of neuromuscular diseases, with an initial focus on Duchenne muscular dystrophy. This reflects a thorough review of our capital requirements, feedback from our stockholders, and our confidence in the potential for Keros to provide meaningful and potentially disease-modifying benefits to patients."

During the strategic review process, the Board, with the assistance of the strategic committee of the Board and outside financial and legal advisors, evaluated a comprehensive range of strategic alternatives, including but not limited to a sale of the Company or other business combination transaction, continued investment in the Company's pipeline, and/or return of excess capital to stockholders. The evaluation of these alternatives involved outreach to a number of third parties and engagement with Company stockholders.

This press release is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the Company's securities.

Hensoldt, Renk & Rheinmetall teuer
Rheinmetall, Renk und Hensoldt haben den Rüstungsboom der letzten Jahre dominiert, doch inzwischen sind diese Titel fundamental heillos überbewertet. KGVs jenseits der 60, KUVs über 4, und das in einem politisch fragilen Umfeld mit wackelnder Haushaltsdisziplin. Für späteinsteigende Anleger kann das teuer werden.

Doch es gibt Alternativen, die bislang unter dem Radar fliegen; solide bewertet, operativ stark und mit Nachholpotenzial.

In unserem kostenlosen Report zeigen wir dir, welche 3 Rüstungsunternehmen noch Potenzial haben und wie du von der zweiten Welle der Zeitenwende profitieren kannst, ohne sich an überhitzten Highflyer zu verbrennen.
