Key Details
- Transactions reported in Form 4 filed Jan 28, 2026, covering activity from Dec 12, 2025 through Jan 26, 2026.
- Dec 12, 2025: PSU award of 100,000 shares became vested/convertible (reported as award/derivative; acquisition price $0.00 for derivative).
- Dec 15, 2025: Sold 58,007 shares at a weighted avg price $2.32 — proceeds ~$134,576 (F4: multiple prices aggregated).
- Jan 26, 2026: Converted/exercised 20,100 derivative shares (M) and sold 12,245 shares at $1.93 — proceeds ~$23,633.

- Shares owned after these transactions: not specified in the provided extract.
- Notable footnotes:
- F1–F2: The 100,000 award was a PSU that vested upon FDA approval of Cardamyst (etripamil); each PSU equals one common share.
- F3: The sales were sell-to-cover transactions to satisfy income tax withholding from PSU/RSU vesting.
- F7: Certain RSUs vest in equal annual installments starting Jan 26, 2026 (illustrates ongoing vesting schedule).
- F4: Dec 15 sale price is a weighted average; the filer can provide breakdown on request.
Context
- These transactions appear routine: PSUs vested (a non-cash award converted to shares) and the insider sold a portion to cover tax obligations. That is different from an open-market purchase, which some investors view as a stronger bullish signal.
- The Form 4 reports conversion/exercise of derivative awards and subsequent sell-to-cover sales; this is common when equity awards vest. The filing does not, by itself, explain any change in company outlook or insider sentiment.
