QT Imaging Holdings Grants CEO 484,221 RSUs, Vesting Through 2030

What Happened

• QT Imaging Holdings, Inc. (QTI) filed an 8-K (Item 5.02) announcing that its Compensation Committee approved a grant of 484,221 restricted stock units (RSUs) to CEO Dr. Raluca Dinu under the company’s 2024 Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan. The grant is governed by the company’s previously disclosed RSU agreement and vests over time subject to Dr. Dinu’s continued service.

Key Details

• Grant size: 484,221 restricted stock units (RSUs).
• Vesting schedule: 3/16 of the RSUs vest on November 15, 2026; the remaining 13/16 vest in 13 equal quarterly installments on each February 15, May 15, August 15, and November 15, with full vesting on February 15, 2030.
• Governance: Approved by the Compensation Committee and issued under the 2024 Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan.
• Filing: Reported on Form 8-K, signed and dated August 31, 2026, by Dr. Raluca Dinu as CEO.

Why It Matters

• This equity award aligns a significant portion of the CEO’s compensation with the company’s long-term performance and retention through early 2030. For investors, such grants can signal management’s incentive to drive shareholder value but also represent potential future dilution as RSUs convert to shares upon vesting.
