Keros Therapeutics ( (KROS) ) has shared an announcement.

On February 24, 2026, Keros Therapeutics’ board appointed former Lyell Immunopharma CFO and veteran healthcare investment banker Charles Newton as a Class III director, effective March 9, 2026, with a term running through the 2026 annual meeting. He will also join the Compensation and Audit Committees and receive the company’s standard mix of equity awards and cash retainers for non-employee directors, along with a standard indemnification agreement.

The appointment, announced publicly on February 26, 2026, brings deep healthcare finance and capital markets experience onto Keros’ board as it advances its clinical pipeline, including rinvatercept. Concurrently, longtime director Carl Gordon will step down from the board and the Compensation Committee on March 9, 2026, a move the company said was not due to any disagreement and that prompted a refresh of committee memberships across its three standing board committees.

The most recent analyst rating on (KROS) stock is a Buy with a $23.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Keros Therapeutics stock, see the KROS Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on KROS Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, KROS is a Neutral.

The score is driven primarily by improving financial performance and a strong, low-leverage balance sheet, supported by reasonable valuation and positive corporate actions (capital return and strategy updates). These positives are tempered by weaker near-term technical momentum (negative MACD, RSI below 50, and price below the 20-day average).
