On 20 June 2025, Anika Therapeutics (ticker: ANIK) director Glenn R. Larsen received an award of 14,164 restricted stock units (RSUs) at an exercise price of $0.

Each RSU converts into one share of ANIK common stock upon vesting, subject to continued service. No derivative securities or open-market purchases/sales were reported, and no 10b5-1 trading plan was indicated.
This filing reflects routine director compensation rather than a discretionary purchase. The share amount is modest relative to ANIK’s 14 million-plus outstanding shares and therefore is unlikely to materially affect the company’s capital structure or near-term valuation.
