Seer ( (SEER) ) has provided an update.

On February 26, 2026, Seer’s board adopted a Tax Benefit Preservation Plan and declared a dividend of one right for each outstanding share of Class A common stock to stockholders of record as of March 9, 2026, with each right allowing the holder to purchase a fraction of a share of Series A Participating Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $11.00. The plan is structured as a so‑called NOL rights plan that discourages any investor from acquiring 4.9% or more of Seer’s common stock without board approval, aiming to prevent an ownership change under Section 382 of the U.S. tax code that could significantly limit the use of Seer’s net operating losses and other tax attributes, thereby protecting a key financial asset for existing shareholders.

Under the plan, if an investor crosses the 4.9% threshold, other stockholders would be entitled to purchase shares at a substantial discount, diluting the would‑be acquirer, while the board retains the ability to redeem or exchange the rights and to amend the plan’s terms within specified limits. The rights, which are attached to common shares until they become separately exercisable upon certain triggering events, are set to expire no later than February 25, 2029, or earlier if stockholders fail to ratify the plan by February 25, 2027 or if the board later concludes that preserving tax benefits is no longer necessary or in the best interests of the company and its investors.

The most recent analyst rating on (SEER) stock is a Hold with a $2.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Seer stock, see the SEER Stock Forecast page.
