FAQ

What did SERA Chief Scientific Officer John J. Boniface report in this Form 4?

John J. Boniface reported selling 3,038 SERA Class A Common shares. The sale was executed solely to cover tax withholding obligations triggered by the vesting of restricted stock units, under a company-mandated “sell to cover” arrangement, rather than a discretionary open-market decision.

How many SERA shares did the insider sell and at what price range?

He sold 3,038 shares at a weighted average price of $1.96. The transaction was a block trade executed in multiple parts, with individual sale prices ranging from $1.87 to $2.03 per share, as disclosed in the Form 4 footnote details.

Why were SERA shares sold by the Chief Scientific Officer in this filing?

The shares were sold to cover tax withholding obligations on vesting RSUs. The issuer requires these obligations to be satisfied via “sell to cover” transactions, meaning the sale was mandated by company policy and did not represent a voluntary trading decision by the officer.

How many SERA shares does John J. Boniface hold after this transaction?

Following the tax-related sale, he directly holds 147,359 shares of Sera Prognostics Class A Common Stock. This post-transaction ownership figure reflects his remaining equity position after selling 3,038 shares to satisfy withholding obligations tied to restricted stock unit vesting.

Was the SERA insider’s sale considered a discretionary open-market trade?

No, the sale was not discretionary. Although coded as an open-market sale, the footnote explains it was mandated under the issuer’s election to satisfy tax withholding via “sell to cover” transactions, so it does not reflect an independent trading choice by the insider.

Can investors obtain detailed pricing for the SERA insider’s block trade?

Yes. The filing states the reported price is a weighted average for trades between $1.87 and $2.03. The insider will provide full information on the number of shares sold at each separate price to regulators, the issuer, or any security holder upon request.
