The polarized cross-section ratiofrom hard exclusiveelectroproduction off an unpolarized hydrogen target has been extracted based on beam-spin asymmetry measurements using aincident electron beam and the CLAS12 spectrometer at Jefferson Lab. The study, which provides the first observation of this channel in the deep-inelastic regime, focuses on very forward-pion kinematics in the valence regime, and photon virtualities ranging fromup to. The reaction provides a novel access to the-quark content of the nucleon and totransition generalized parton distributions. A comparison to existing results for hard exclusiveandelectroproduction is provided, which shows a clear impact of the excitation mechanism, encoded in transition generalized parton distributions, on the asymmetry.
