Director Barbara Kosacz received 28,000 stock options in LeonaBio, Inc. at an exercise price of $9.54 per share, expiring on April 8, 2036. The filing characterizes this as a grant or award, not an open-market purchase.

The options vest monthly over 24 months, contingent on continued status as a Service Provider under the 2026 Equity Incentive Plan. This structure aligns incentives over a two-year period and is typical for equity-based director compensation rather than a directional trading signal.

Vesting is the process by which you earn full ownership of something, like company stock or a retirement benefit, over time. It’s like earning the right to keep a gift piece by piece the longer you stay with a company, making sure employees stay committed before they receive all the benefits.
