"Dr. Cudkowicz was awarded 1,371 restricted stock units."
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.

FAQ

What equity awards did Praxis (PRAX) director Merit Ester Cudkowicz receive?

She received 1,371 restricted stock units and a stock option for 648 shares. The RSUs convert one-for-one into common shares, and the option allows future share purchases at a fixed $240.66 exercise price, subject to vesting.

How do the 1,371 RSUs granted to the PRAX director vest?

The 1,371 restricted stock units vest in a single annual installment. Vesting occurs on the earlier of June 10, 2027 or Praxis Precision Medicines’ 2027 annual meeting of stockholders, after which each vested unit is settled in one share of common stock.

What are the key terms of the 648-share stock option granted at Praxis (PRAX)?

The option covers 648 shares of common stock at a $240.66 exercise price and expires June 10, 2036. It vests in 12 equal monthly installments starting July 10, 2026, finishing on the earlier of June 10, 2027 or the 2027 annual meeting.

Is the Form 4 transaction for PRAX a market purchase or a compensation grant?

The Form 4 reflects compensation-related grants, not market trades. Both the 1,371 restricted stock units and the 648-share stock option are reported with transaction code “A” for grants or awards, indicating equity-based compensation to the director.

How many Praxis (PRAX) shares does Merit Ester Cudkowicz report owning after these awards?

After the awards, she reports direct ownership of 1,371 shares of common stock and a stock option covering 648 additional shares. The RSUs and option vest over time, so full economic benefit depends on continued service and vesting.

When do the PRAX director’s RSUs and options fully vest if the 2027 meeting is before June 10, 2027?

Both awards reference the earlier of June 10, 2027 or the 2027 annual meeting. If the meeting occurs earlier, the 1,371 RSUs vest then, and the final monthly installment of the 648-share option also vests by that earlier meeting date.
