Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Jonathan Rubin, SVP and Chief Medical Officer of Supernus Pharmaceuticals (SUPN), reported transactions on 09/25/2025 relating to Performance Share Units (PSUs). 1,875 shares of common stock were acquired on settlement of PSUs at $0 (transaction code M) and 840 shares were withheld to satisfy tax withholding at a price of $46.21 (transaction code F).

Following these transactions, Mr. Rubin beneficially owned 11,015 shares (direct ownership). The filing notes the PSUs were granted on February 22, 2024, with certain awards vesting upon achievement of individual performance objectives established June 24, 2024.

Positive

  • 1,875 shares acquired on settlement of Performance Share Units, showing vested compensation was realized
  • Disclosure specifies the PSU grant date (02/22/2024) and performance objective date (06/24/2024), providing clear linkage between award and vesting

Negative

  • 840 shares were withheld to satisfy tax withholding, reducing the net increase in outstanding shares held by the reporting person
  • Withholding occurred at a $46.21 price, representing immediate taxable settlement rather than deferral

Insights

TL;DR: Routine insider settlement of performance share units; modest net increase in direct holdings after tax withholding.

The Form 4 documents settlement of 1,875 performance share units into common stock and the withholding of 840 shares to satisfy taxes at $46.21 per share. These are non-cash, compensation-related transactions reflecting vested equity tied to prior performance targets. Net change reduces dilution impact compared with a cash tax payment, and the reporting shows direct beneficial ownership of 11,015 shares after transactions. This is a standard post-vesting reporting event with limited market impact.

TL;DR: Governance-normal: equity compensation vested per pre-established objectives; disclosure consistent with Section 16 reporting rules.

The filing specifies PSUs granted 02/22/2024 with vesting tied to objectives set 06/24/2024. The conversion of PSUs into shares and the use of share-withholding for taxes are typical governance practices to settle employee equity awards. The signature by an attorney-in-fact and timely filing indicate procedural compliance. No departures, loans, or atypical transactions are reported.
