Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Spyre Therapeutics, Inc. Chief Financial Officer Scott L. Burrows reported an exercise-and-sale transaction in company stock. On June 25, 2026, he exercised stock options to acquire 15,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $14.50 per share, then sold 15,000 shares in open-market transactions.

The sales comprised 10,000 shares at a weighted average price of $87.14 and 5,000 shares at $87.12, with actual trade prices ranging from $86.78 to $87.43. After these trades, he directly held 97,994 shares of common stock, including 67,476 restricted stock units that vest in equal installments on September 1, 2026 and September 1, 2027, subject to continued employment.

Burrows also continues to hold a stock option originally covering 404,857 shares, with 359,857 option shares remaining after this 15,000‑share exercise. The option had been adjusted for a 1‑for‑25 reverse stock split and vests over several years based on continued employment.

Insights

CFO executed a routine option exercise and net share sale while retaining a substantial equity stake.

The filing shows Scott L. Burrows exercised options for 15,000 shares at an exercise price of $14.50 and sold 15,000 shares at prices around the high‑$80s. This is a classic exercise‑and‑sell pattern that converts part of his option value into cash.

Post‑transaction, he still holds 97,994 common shares, including 67,476 RSUs that vest in two future installments, plus a large remaining option position of 359,857 shares out of an original 404,857. The visible data suggests ongoing exposure to the company’s equity alongside some liquidity taking.

There is no reference here to a pre‑arranged Rule 10b5‑1 trading plan, so the timing context is not detailed in this filing. Overall, the combination of sales and sizeable remaining holdings makes this look like a routine portfolio and compensation management move rather than a transformative ownership change.

weighted average price financial
"The price reported above is a weighted average price."
Weighted average price is the average price of a security where each trade or component is counted according to its size, so bigger trades pull the average more than smaller ones. Think of it like calculating the average cost of a grocery haul where items you bought more of have greater influence on the final per-item cost. Investors use it to understand the true average price paid or received, judge execution quality, and compare trading performance against market movement.
restricted stock units ("RSUs") financial
"Includes 67,476 restricted stock units ("RSUs"). Each RSU represents a contingent right..."
Restricted stock units (RSUs) are a company promise to give an employee shares of stock (or cash equivalent) in the future, but only after certain conditions—usually staying with the company for a set time or hitting performance goals—are met. Investors watch RSUs because when they vest they increase the number of shares outstanding and can lead insiders to sell shares, affecting share price, company dilution and the true cost of employee pay.
Stock Option (Right to Buy) financial
"security_title": "Stock Option (Right to Buy)""
reverse stock split financial
"have been adjusted to reflect the Issuer's 1-for-25 reverse stock split on September 8, 2023"
A reverse stock split reduces a company's number of outstanding shares while raising the price per share proportionally, so the total value of each investor's holding is unchanged; a 1-for-10 split turns 100 shares worth $1 each into 10 shares worth $10 each. Companies often do this to regain compliance with an exchange's minimum price rule or to attract investors who avoid very low-priced stocks.
vests in monthly installments financial
"with the remaining three quarters vesting in monthly installments over the following three years"
