Hut 8 insider files two 505,789-PSU performance awards
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Hut 8 Corp. (HUT) disclosed insider equity awards. The company’s Chief Strategy Officer, who also serves as a director, reported two grants of performance stock units (PSUs) on 11/02/2025, each for 505,789 PSUs (Transaction Code: A).
Each PSU represents a contingent right to one share and may be settled in common stock or cash at the issuer’s discretion.

In both cases, vesting can range from 0% to 300% of target based on performance.
The first award’s performance period begins on December 3, 2026 and ends four years after the grant date; the second begins twelve months after grant and also ends four years after grant. Measurement and potential vesting occur quarterly or at the end of the relevant period. Shares received upon vesting must generally be held for two years following the vesting date, unless vested in connection with a change of control.

- Each performance stock unit ("PSU") represents a contingent right to receive one share of Issuer common stock. The PSUs will be settled in either common stock or cash (or a combination thereof) at the discretion of the Issuer. The number of PSUs reported represents the target number awarded on the grant date. Vesting of the PSUs is contingent on the achievement of defined value levels for the shares of common stock of American Bitcoin Corp., a majority owned subsidiary of the Issuer, owned by the Issuer as of the grant date. The number of PSUs that vest will range from 0% to 300% of the target amount shown based the applicable performance levels achieved, provided that the Reporting Person remains employed by the Issuer through such vesting date. The PSUs' performance measurement period begins on December 3, 2026 and ends four years after grant date with measurement and potential vest dates on a quarterly basis or on the final day of the relevant measurement period. Once the PSUs have vested, the shares of the Issuer's common stock received must generally be held by the Reporting Person for a period of two years following the vesting date (unless the PSUs vested in connection with a change of control).
