In the autumn of 2025, 5AM Venture Management, LLC relinquished its final stake in MoonLake Immunotherapeutics (MLTX), a gesture akin to a weary traveler discarding a rusted compass. The transaction, valued at $13.33 million, marked the end of a chapter-though whether it was a story of triumph or surrender remains unwritten.
According to a filing with the SEC, the fund liquidated 282,313 shares, a calculated retreat from a venture that had grown increasingly elusive. The average share price for the quarter, now a mere shadow of its former self, rendered the trade’s value at $13,325,174. One might call it a rational decision, though the word “rational” sits uneasily in the presence of hope.
The stake, once 5.12% of reportable assets, now rests at zero. A hollow victory, perhaps, for a fund that now turns its gaze to SKYE, TRDA, and other names etched in more stable ink. These are the new constellations in their portfolio, brighter and less prone to the turbulence of clinical-stage biotech.
Shares of MoonLake, priced at $13.58 as of November 18, 2025, have fallen 74.9% in a year-a descent that outpaces even the S&P 500. For a dividend hunter, such a trajectory is a cruel jest. The company’s promise of revolutionary Nanobody therapies for inflammatory diseases, while technically sound, offers no quarterly dividend to cushion the fall. It is a future that gleams, but one that cannot be held.

MoonLake’s mission is noble: to develop Sonelokimab, a Nanobody therapy for ailments like hidradenitis suppurativa. Yet the gap between ambition and execution is vast. Clinical trials are a labyrinth, and even the most promising candidates may vanish without a trace. Investors, particularly those who rely on dividends, are left to ponder whether the company’s science will ever translate into tangible returns-or if it will remain a monument to unmet potential.
The fund’s exit is not a verdict on the company’s worth, but a reflection of its own calculus. Institutional investors, after all, are not poets; they are accountants in a world that demands precision. For the dividend hunter, the lesson is clear: chase not the dream, but the dividend. The former is a mirage; the latter, a lifeline.
And so the story continues. MoonLake’s pipeline hums with possibility, yet its shares languish. The market, ever indifferent, moves on. Perhaps in time, the science will prevail. Perhaps not. The autumn deepens, and the candle of hope flickers. 🕯️
