What Happened
Peraso Inc. announced on February 9, 2026 that its compensation committee awarded 60,000 stock options each to Ronald Glibbery (CEO), James Sullivan (CFO) and Bradley Lynch (COO). The options were granted under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2019 Stock Incentive Plan.

Key Details

• Grant date: February 9, 2026.
• Award size: 60,000 stock options to each of the three named executives.
• Exercise price: $0.87 per share.
• Vesting and term: Vest in equal monthly installments over 36 months beginning one month after grant; expire February 9, 2036.
• Documentation: Awards issued pursuant to the Company’s 2019 Stock Incentive Plan; form of grant agreement filed as Exhibit 4.1.

Why It Matters
These awards are a form of long-term executive compensation intended for retention and performance alignment. If exercised, the options would increase the number of outstanding shares, which can have a dilutive effect; the grants also set the executives’ potential upside based on future stock price performance. Investors should note the exercise price, vesting schedule and expiration when assessing executive incentives and potential dilution.
