What Happened
Joel Becker, CEO of NeuroPace Inc., reported a disposition of 1,126 shares on May 27, 2026. The shares were reported at $17.06 each, representing approximately $19,210. This transaction reflects shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations related to the vesting of a restricted stock unit (RSU) award, not an open-market sale for investment purposes.
