Insights

Equity compensation analyst

Routine option grant increases long-term equity incentives for a key executive.

Executive vice president and general counsel James Michael Rockett received options for 200,000 Aemetis shares at an exercise price of $2.64. This is labeled as a grant or award, making it a compensation event rather than an open-market purchase.

The filing shows total options of 700,000 shares after this grant, indicating a meaningful but not unusual equity stake for a senior officer. The four-year vesting pattern, with 1/12 vesting every three months from the grant date, aligns rewards with ongoing employment and the company’s share performance over time.
