Statement on Schedule 13D

 

This Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) amends and restates the Statement on Schedule 13D that was originally filed on October 9, 2018 (the “Original Schedule 13D”). This Amendment No. 1 relates to the beneficial ownership of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”) of Entasis Therapeutics Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Issuer”) and is being filed by Sofinnova Venture Partners IX, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“SVP IX”), Sofinnova Management IX, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“SM IX”), Dr. Michael F. Powell (“Powell”) and Dr. James I. Healy (“Healy” and collectively with SVP IX, SM IX, and Powell, the “Reporting Persons”). The Issuer reported outstanding Common Stock in the Issuer’s Form 10-Q (File No. 001-38670) filed on August 6, 2020 causing a decrease in the aggregate percentage ownership of Common Stock by the Reporting Persons such that the Reporting Persons ceased to be beneficial owners of more than five percent of the Issuer’s Common Stock as of June 30, 2020.

 

ITEM 1.

SECURITY AND ISSUER.

 

(a)       The class of equity securities to which this statement relates is the Common Stock of the Issuer.

 

(b)       The Issuer’s principal executive offices are located at 35 Gatehouse Drive, Waltham, MA 02451.

 

ITEM 2.

IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

 

(a)       The persons and entities filing this Schedule 13D are SVP IX, SM IX, Powell, and Healy. SM IX, the general partner of SVP IX, may be deemed to have sole power to vote and sole power to dispose of shares of the Issuer directly owned by SVP IX. Dr. Anand Mehra, a reporting person on the Original Schedule 13D, is no longer a managing member of SM IX, and accordingly, is no longer a reporting person on this Amendment No. 1.

 

(b)       The address of the principal place of business for each of the Reporting Persons is c/o Sofinnova Ventures, 3000 Sand Hill Road, Bldg 4, Suite 250, Menlo Park, California 94025.

 

(c)       The principal occupation of each of the Reporting Persons is the venture capital investment business. The principal business of SVP IX is to make investments in private and public companies, and the principal business of SM IX is to serve as the general partner of SVP IX. Powell and Healy are the managing members of SM IX.

 

(d)       During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons has been convicted in any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).

 

(e)       During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

 

(f)       SVP IX is a Delaware limited partnership. SM IX is a Delaware limited liability company. Powell and Healy are U.S. citizens.

 

ITEM 3.

SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

 

SVP IX purchased an aggregate 16,949,153 shares of Series B-1 convertible preferred stock from the Issuer at a purchase price of $0.59 per share in two closings that occurred in August 2017 and December 2017, or $10,000,000 in the aggregate.

 

 

 

 

In connection with the closing of the Issuer’s initial public offering of Common Stock (the “Offering”), SVP IX’s Series B-1 convertible preferred stock automatically converted on a 20.728-for-one basis into 842,454 shares of Common Stock (which includes an aggregate of 24,762 shares of Common Stock received upon the conversion of the Issuer’s preferred stock as payment of the accrued dividends through September 27, 2018).

 

In connection with the Offering, SVP IX purchased 337,724 shares of Common Stock at $15.00 per share, or $5,065,860 in the aggregate. Such purchase occurred pursuant to and on the terms set forth in the Issuer’s Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) on September 26, 2018 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Prospectus”).

 

Following such time as the Reporting Owners ceased to be beneficial owners of more than five percent of the Issuer’s Common Stock, SVP IX disposed of all of its shares of Common Stock.

 

Unless noted above, the source of the funds for all purchases and acquisitions by the Reporting Persons was from working capital. Certain purchases by SVP IX were made using its working capital funded partially through a line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank in the normal course of business and then paid down from the proceeds from investor capital calls.

 

Unless noted above, no part of the purchase price was borrowed by any Reporting Person for the purpose of acquiring any securities discussed in this Item 3.

 

ITEM 4.

PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

 

The Reporting Persons hold their securities of the Issuer for investment purposes. Depending on the factors discussed herein, the Reporting Persons may, from time to time, acquire additional Common Stock and/or retain and/or sell all or a portion of the Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, and/or may distribute the Common Stock held by the Reporting Persons to their respective members or limited partners. Any actions the Reporting Persons might undertake will be dependent upon the Reporting Persons’ review of numerous factors, including, among other things, the price levels of the Common Stock, general market and economic conditions, ongoing evaluation of the Issuer’s business, financial condition, operations and prospects; the relative attractiveness of alternative business and investment opportunities, and other future developments. Except as set forth above, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or intentions which would result in or relate to any of the transactions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

 

ITEM 5.

(a,b)    Regarding aggregate beneficial ownership, see Row 11 of the cover page of each Reporting Person. Regarding percentage beneficial ownership, see Row 13 of the cover page of each Reporting Person. Regarding sole power to vote shares, see Row 7 of the cover page of each Reporting Person. Regarding shared power to vote shares, see Row 8 of the cover page of each Reporting Person. Regarding sole power to dispose of shares, see Row 9 of the cover page of each Reporting Person. Regarding shared power to dispose of shares, see Row 10 of the cover page of each Reporting Person. The percentage listed in Row 13 for each Reporting Person was calculated based upon 35,475,441 shares of Common Stock reported as outstanding as of October 30, 2020 by the Issuer on the Issuer’s Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 5, 2020.

 

(c)       Except as set forth in Item 3 above, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transaction in the securities of the Issuer during the past 60 days.

 

(d)       Under certain circumstances set forth in the limited partnership agreement of SVP IX, the general partner and limited partners of SVP IX may be deemed to have the right to receive dividends from, or the proceeds from, the sale of shares of the Issuer owned by such entity of which they are a partner.

 

 

 

 

(e)       Each Reporting Person ceased to be a beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Issuer’s securities as of June 30, 2020.

 

ITEM 6.

Subject to the terms of such Registration Rights Agreement, SVP IX can demand that the Issuer file a registration statement or request that its Common Stock be covered by a registration statement that the Issuer is otherwise filing under certain specified circumstances.

In connection with the Offering, SVP IX and certain other the holders of shares of Common Stock have entered into Lock-Up Agreements with the Issuer’s underwriters or otherwise agreed, subject to certain exceptions, that they will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale, or otherwise dispose of or hedge any of shares of Common Stock, any options or warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock, or any securities convertible into, or exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive shares of Common Stock, without the prior written consent of the representatives of the Issuer’s underwriters for a period of 180 days from the date of the Prospectus.
