Tomkins Alex 4

What Happened

• Alex Tomkins, Chief Technology Officer of Peraso Inc. (PRSO), received an award of 60,000 derivative shares on February 9, 2026. The reported acquisition price is $0.00, indicating a granted equity award rather than an open-market purchase or sale. This is a compensation award (transaction code A), not a sale.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-02-09; Form filed: 2026-02-10 (timely).
• Award size: 60,000 derivative shares; reported acquisition price: $0.00.
• Vesting: the award vests 1/36th of the shares on each monthly anniversary beginning Feb 9, 2026 (≈1,667 shares per month).
• Post-transaction beneficial ownership: the filing’s column 9 reports total beneficial ownership for this class of derivative security only; options with different exercise prices or vesting terms are treated as different classes.
• Filing type: A (award/grant). No 10b5-1 plan, tax-withholding, or late-filing indication was reported.

Context

• This grant is a routine equity compensation event for an executive and does not by itself indicate a buy or sell signal. Because it is a derivative award with $0.00 acquisition price and scheduled vesting, value is realized over time as the award vests and, if applicable, is converted or exercised according to company plan terms.
