[Form 4] KORU Medical Systems, Inc. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Ionis Pharmaceuticals (IONS) filed a Form 4 disclosing routine board compensation for non-employee director Allene M. Diaz on 07/01/2025. She received:

• 11,518 non-qualified stock options with a strike price of $39.94.
• 5,220 restricted stock units (RSUs).

Under the company’s Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy, total 2025 equity value was capped at $450,000 (ASC 718 grant-date fair value), so the awards were adjusted downward to stay within that limit.

Both the options and RSUs vest 100 % on the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the grant or (ii) the next annual shareholder meeting. No shares are currently vested or exercisable.

After the grant, Diaz beneficially owns 11,518 derivative option securities and 9,299 RSUs, all held directly. No open-market purchases or sales occurred, and no cash changed hands; the filing reflects standard equity grants intended to align director incentives with shareholder interests.

Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR: Routine director equity grant; neutral for valuation, confirms ongoing incentive alignment without cash outflow.

The filing shows typical non-employee director compensation: options equal to 11,518 shares at $39.94 and 5,220 RSUs. Because these are grants—not open-market buys—they do not signal bullish insider sentiment but do maintain alignment with shareholders. The capped $450k fair-value conforms with governance best practices and limits dilution risk. Overall, the event has negligible EPS or cash-flow impact, so I view it as neutral for investors.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR: Grant adheres to policy cap; good governance but financially immaterial.

The company continues to enforce a hard ceiling on annual director equity compensation, strengthening governance transparency. One-year cliff vesting is standard and provides retention without excessive entrenchment. No red flags on dilution (≈0.007 % of basic shares outstanding, assuming ~150 M shares). Because this is scheduled remuneration, market impact remains minimal.
