CareDx, Inc. 8-K

What Happened

• CareDx, Inc. announced that at its June 11, 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s 2024 Equity Incentive Plan that increases the number of shares available under the plan.
• The Board had previously adopted the amendment on April 21, 2026, and the company described the proposal in its definitive proxy statement filed April 27, 2026.

Key Details

• The Plan Amendment adds 1,600,000 shares to the pool reserved under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan.
• That increase is approximately 3.1% of CareDx’s common shares issued and outstanding (subject to adjustment under the plan).
• The amendment also increases by an equivalent amount the number of shares available for grant as incentive stock options.
• The amendment became effective upon shareholder approval at the June 11, 2026 meeting.

Why It Matters

• Increasing the share reserve gives CareDx additional shares to grant as stock options, restricted stock, or other equity awards for employee compensation, recruitment, and retention.
• For investors, the change is material because it increases the potential number of shares that could be issued under equity awards (the filing quantifies that potential increase as 1.6 million shares, ~3.1% of outstanding shares).
• Shareholders should monitor future grant activity and the company’s disclosures about equity compensation, which can affect share count and dilution over time.
