FAQ
What does RxSight (RXST) disclose in this 8-K/A filing?
RxSight updates a prior board appointment disclosure. The company reports that director Raymond W. Cohen was appointed to its Compensation Committee and Audit Committee on August 14, 2025, and lists the full membership of both committees after these changes.
Which board committees did RxSight add Raymond W. Cohen to?
Raymond W. Cohen was appointed to RxSight’s Compensation Committee and Audit Committee. These appointments were approved by the board, including the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee members, and became effective immediately on August 14, 2025, expanding his responsibilities beyond general board service.
Who are the members of RxSight’s Compensation Committee after this change?
Following Cohen’s appointment, RxSight’s Compensation Committee includes Robert J. Palmisano (Chair), J. Andy Corley, Robert Warner, and Raymond W. Cohen. This committee oversees executive and director compensation matters as part of the company’s overall corporate governance structure described in the filing.
Who are the members of RxSight’s Audit Committee after this filing?
The Audit Committee now consists of Julie B. Andrews (Chair), Juliet Tammenoms Bakker, Tamara R. Fountain, M.D., and Raymond W. Cohen. This committee is responsible for overseeing financial reporting and audit matters, and Cohen’s addition broadens the group’s director representation.
Why did RxSight file an amendment instead of a new 8-K?
RxSight previously reported Cohen’s board appointment without committee assignments. At that time no committee decisions had been made. This Amendment No. 1 updates the earlier disclosure solely to reflect his subsequent appointments to the Compensation and Audit Committees on August 14, 2025.
