restricted stock units financial
"The Reporting Person was granted restricted stock units ("RSUs"), which represent a contingent right to receive one share"
Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.
in lieu of cash retainers financial
"The RSUs were received in lieu of cash retainers for board and committee compensation."
irrevocable trust financial
"Shares are held in an irrevocable trust for the benefit of Mr. Wiinberg's family."
An irrevocable trust is a legal arrangement where an owner transfers assets into a separate entity managed by a trustee and gives up the power to modify or reclaim those assets. For investors it matters because putting stock or other holdings into such a trust can change who controls and benefits from the assets, affect taxes and creditor protection, and influence how easy it is to sell or value those holdings—like placing valuables in a locked safe overseen by someone else.

"The RSUs were received in lieu of cash retainers for board and committee compensation."

"Due to an administrative error, the RSUs for Q1 2026 Board and committee compensation were not filed timely."
FAQ
What did MiNK Therapeutics (INKT) director Ulf Wiinberg report in this Form 4?
He reported stock-based board compensation, not market buying or selling. The filing shows two awards of common stock granted in lieu of cash retainers, plus indirect holdings in a family trust, clarifying his direct and indirect ownership positions in MiNK Therapeutics.
What prior stock award to Ulf Wiinberg does the MiNK Therapeutics (INKT) Form 4 show?
It shows a March 2, 2026 grant of 1,285 common shares at $10.90 per share. This award also represented restricted stock units received instead of cash board and committee retainers, increasing his direct equity-based compensation from MiNK Therapeutics.
What indirect MiNK Therapeutics (INKT) holdings are reported for Ulf Wiinberg?
The Form 4 reports 27,830 shares of Common Stock held indirectly in an irrevocable trust for the benefit of his family. This trust position is separate from his directly held shares and is disclosed as indirect ownership with a specific footnote explanation.
Why does the MiNK Therapeutics (INKT) Form 4 mention an administrative error?
A footnote explains that restricted stock units for Q1 2026 board and committee compensation were not filed on time due to an administrative error. The current Form 4 therefore includes information that should have been reported earlier, correcting the delayed disclosure.
How do the RSU grants in the MiNK Therapeutics (INKT) Form 4 vest?
Footnotes state that each restricted stock unit represents one common share and will vest one month after the grant date. This means Wiinberg’s RSU-based board compensation converts into freely held shares shortly after each award is granted by the company.
