Premier Air Charter Holdings Inc. 8-K

What Happened

• Premier Air Charter Holdings Inc. filed a Form 8-K on June 26, 2026, announcing that the Board appointed Matt Aune as the company’s Chief Financial Officer and principal financial officer, effective June 22, 2026.
• Mr. Aune, age 51, most recently served as CFO of Phunware, Inc. (Aug 2011–June 2023) and has prior finance roles at Sony Computer Entertainment America and Midway Games.

Key Details

• Base salary: $237,000 per year; employment is at-will.
• Equity: nonstatutory stock option to purchase 1,500,000 shares at $0.059 per share, five-year term; vests 25% annually over four years beginning on the first anniversary. Cashless (net) exercise is permitted.
• Offer letter dated June 9, 2026; option agreement dated June 22, 2026.
• Company reports no related-party arrangements, family relationships, or reportable transactions with Mr. Aune.

Why It Matters

• A permanent CFO appointment provides dedicated financial leadership and a single point of responsibility for financial reporting and investor communications.
• The sizable option grant (1.5M shares) aligns Mr. Aune’s incentives with shareholder value but could increase share count if exercised; investors should monitor future disclosures for dilution impact and any subsequent compensation or equity activity.
• Mr. Aune’s prior experience leading a company through growth and a Nasdaq listing may be relevant to Premier Air Charter’s financial strategy and public-company operations.
