When AKTS insiders can sell

Aktis Oncology, Inc. · IPO prospectus filed 2026-01-09 · Single cliff · 180-day lock-up

Scheduled lock-up expiry
2026-07-08

That is the calendar date the clause computes to, counted from the prospectus date. It is the only date computable without knowing a future earnings date, which is why everything that could pull it earlier is printed below it on this page rather than folded into it.

How much stock, against how much trades

"Absorb days" is the shares coming free divided by average daily volume: how many full sessions of AKTS's entire turnover the release amounts to. It is a ratio, not a forecast — it does not know who wants to sell, and a founder with no intention of selling counts the same as a fund that has been waiting six months.

Exactly 34,872,279 shares, against 374,465 shares a day averaged over 20 sessions. Volume source: yahoo-finance2 daily bars (symbol not in our price table), through 2026-11-06. Dollar volume $5.9M a day. Middle third — no call.

Why there is no call on this deal

The numbers above are published, but no dated call was issued. A call only goes in the ledger when the expiry falls 15 to 45 days out, the prospectus states or implies a share count, and there are at least 20 sessions of volume — and the middle third of the cohort gets no call at all, because a call on every deal is not a call. Publishing one here would be padding the scoreboard with a coin flip.

The lock-up clause, in the issuer's words

Every other free lock-up calendar tells you 180 days and moves on. This is the actual sentence the date above was computed from, so that if the words do not support the number, the number is wrong and the filing is one click away.

…ally all of our outstanding capital stock have entered into lock-up agreements with the underwriters or otherwise agreed, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, not to sell or transfer any common stock or securities convertible into, exchangeable for, exercisable for, or repayable with common stock, for 180 days after the date of this prospectus without first obtaining the written consent of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., Leerink Partners LLC and TD Securities (USA) LLC. Upon the expiration of the lock-up period, substantially all of the shares subject to such lock-up restrictions will become eligible for sale, subject to the limitations discussed above. For a further description of these lock-up agreements, please see the section titled "Underwriting." 234 Table of Contents After the date of the initial public filing of the prospect…

Where the share count comes from

34,872,279 shares — stated in the prospectus. A count the prospectus prints and a count derived from two of its other numbers are not the same quality of claim, so which one this is gets said rather than implied.

Exceptions written into the lock-up (4)

Each of these is a route by which AKTS shares can move before 2026-07-08. The 10b5-1 carve-out is the one worth reading twice: it lets insiders put a selling plan in place during the lock-up, so the first sales can be automatic and immediate rather than discretionary and later.

10b5-1 plan

How this reading of AKTS could be wrong

The lock-up period is restated 3 times in this prospectus. Issuers repeat the clause on the cover, in the summary, in the risk factors and in the underwriting section, and the wording is not always identical. The parser resolved them to one period; if a reader finds a restatement that disagrees, the quote above is the one it used.

The volume is a vendor's, not ours. AKTS is not in our own price table, so average daily volume comes from yahoo-finance2 daily bars (symbol not in our price table). Vendor bars for recently listed symbols are the ones most likely to be wrong.

Only 20 sessions of volume history. This is a recent IPO, and early volume is dominated by the offering itself. An average over 20 sessions of a stock that has barely traded is the weakest input on the page, and absorb days inherits every bit of that weakness.

The parser can misread a filing. That is why every number here is printed next to the words it came from. Earlier versions of this parser read the underwriters' 30-day over-allotment window as a 30-day lock-up on five deals, and double-counted one issuer's share total because the offering summary appears on both the cover and in the summary section.

Lock-ups cluster, because IPOs cluster: these priced in the same window as AKTS and come free in the same month. Several heavy releases landing together is a different situation from one.
