Kodiak AI, Inc. reported an amended insider transaction showing Director James D. Reed was granted 425,037 restricted stock units (RSUs) on 09/24/2025, replacing an earlier erroneous grant figure. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of common stock and the award carries no cash exercise price. The RSUs vest subject to a combination of service-based vesting and a performance-based condition that will vest one-third of the award if the company’s share price meets thresholds of $18, $23 and $28 for specified sustained trading windows prior to the earlier of a specified cutoff or a change of control.

The amendment corrects the originally reported quantity and clarifies vesting mechanics; other details reference an option-style service vesting schedule noted in the original filing.

Kodiak AI, Inc. ha pubblicato un’operazione insider rettificata che mostra che il Direttore James D. Reed ha ricevuto 425,037 RSU (unità azionarie vincolate) il 24/09/2025, sostituendo una precedente cifra di attribuzione errata. Ogni RSU rappresenta un diritto contingentale a ricevere una singola azione ordinaria e l’assegnazione non comporta alcun prezzo di esercizio in contanti. Le RSU vestono soggette a una combinazione di vesting basato sul servizio e a una condizione di performance che farà vestire un terzo dell’assegnazione se il prezzo delle azioni dell’azienda raggiunge soglie di $18, $23 e $28 per finestre di trading sostenute specifiche prima della data di taglio o di un cambio di controllo.

L’emendamento corregge la quantità originariamente riportata e chiarisce la meccanica di vesting; altri dettagli fanno riferimento a un piano di vesting in stile opzione indicato nel fascicolo originale.

Kodiak AI, Inc. hat eine geänderte Insider-Transaktion gemeldet, wonach der Direktor James D. Reed am 24.09.2025 425.037 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) erhielt, und eine frühere fehlerhafte Grant-Zahl ersetzt. Jede RSU steht für ein bedingtes Recht, eine Stammaktie zu erhalten, und der Zuschuss hat keinen Barpreis.

Die RSUs vesten basierend auf einer Kombination aus Dienstzeitbasierung und einer leistungsabhängigen Bedingung, die ein Drittel des Zuschusses vesten lässt, wenn der Aktienkurs des Unternehmens bestimmte Schwellenwerte von $18, $23 und $28 für festgelegte längere Handelsfenster vor dem frühesten von Cut-off oder einer Kontrolländerung erreicht.

Die Änderung korrigiert die ursprünglich gemeldte Menge und klärt die Vesting-Mechanik; weitere Details beziehen sich auf einen Options-ähnlichen Dienst-Vesting-Schedule, der im ursprünglichen Filing erwähnt wird.

Kodiak AI, Inc. أصدرت تعديلًا على صفقة insider يظهر أن المدير James D. Reed قد حصل على 425,037 وحدة أسهم مقيدة (RSUs) في 24/09/2025، ليحل محل رقم المنحة الخاطئ السابق. كل RSU يمثل حقًا مشروطًا للحصول على سهم عادي واحد ولا يوجد سعر تنفيذ نقدي للمنحة. RSUs تتقيد تقيدًا بآلية vesting تعتمد على الخدمة وبشرط أداء يجعل vesting ثلث المنحة إذا وصل سعر سهم الشركة إلى عتبات $18، $23 و$28 خلال فترات مطابقة محددة قبل الأخير من تاريخ الإيقاف أو التغيير في الملكية.

التعديل يصحح الكمية المبلغ عنها أصلاً ويوضح آليات vesting؛ تفاصيل أخرى تشير إلى جدول vesting بنمط خيار مذكور في الملف الأصلي.

Kodiak AI, Inc. 公告了一项修订后的内幕交易,显示董事 James D. Reed 在 2025-09-24 获得了 425,037 份受限股票单位(RSU),取代了先前的错误授予数字。每份 RSU 表示获得一股普通股的或有权利,且该授予不设现金行使价格。RSU 的归属以服务期 vesting 与业绩条件相结合的方式进行,若公司股票在前述的特定持续交易窗口内达到 $18、$23、$28 的门槛,则本次奖励的三分之一将会 vest,前提条件是在规定的截止日期或控股变更之前。

修订纠正了原先报告的数量,并澄清了 vesting 机制;其他细节参考原始文件中所述的类似期权式服务 vesting 计划。

Positive
  • Grant aligns director interests with shareholders through equity compensation tied to share-price performance
  • Amendment corrects an earlier reporting error, improving transparency and compliance
Negative
  • Potential dilution of common shares when RSUs vest and convert to stock
  • Incomplete disclosure of service-vesting schedule in this amendment limits ability to assess timing and magnitude of vesting

Insights

TL;DR: Director equity grant aligns management with shareholders but performance hurdles and service vesting limit immediate dilution.

The amended Form 4 corrects the number of RSUs granted to a director to 425,037 and clarifies vesting terms. From a governance standpoint, equity compensation for a director aligns incentives toward long-term share‑price appreciation, while the staged performance hurdles and service-based vesting protect shareholders from immediate dilution and ensure retention. The disclosure of specific price thresholds provides transparency on performance expectations. The filing does not disclose the referenced service-vesting schedule in full, limiting assessment of total time-based vesting acceleration or potential change-of-control treatment.

TL;DR: Material correction to grant size improves record accuracy; vesting structure ties pay to stock performance but creates potential future dilution.

The amendment replaces an erroneously larger reported grant with the actual 425,037 RSUs, improving reporting accuracy and compliance. The RSUs are zero‑cost awards convertible to common shares upon satisfaction of service and performance conditions, with one-third dependent on clear share-price thresholds, which is a standard performance-based design. Without the full service-vesting schedule from the original form, it is not possible to model exact vesting timing or maximum annual dilution. No cash consideration was paid and the report indicates direct ownership post-grant.
