Korro Bio CEO Aiyar Ram Receives Equity Awards
What Happened Aiyar Ram, President, CEO and Director of Korro Bio, was granted a total of 120,000 equity awards on February 2, 2026: 40,000 restricted stock units (RSUs) and 80,000 derivative equity units (option-like award). Both grants show an acquisition price of $0.00, so no cash was paid for these awards on grant. This is a compensatory equity grant to an insider rather than a market purchase or sale.

Context These grants are standard executive compensation awards (RSUs and a time-vesting derivative equity award). RSUs convert to shares upon vesting (no exercise required); the derivative award vests monthly over four years. Such grants are not sales or purchases in the open market and should be viewed as compensation rather than a direct bullish/bearish trading signal.
