- On January 31, 2024, the Reporting Person was granted performance restricted stock units (PSUs) covering 8,500 shares of the Issuer's common stock, to vest upon the satisfaction of certain performance criteria. If any such milestone is achieved on a pre-specified accelerated timeline, up to 50% additional shares attributable to such milestone achievement could vest under these PSU grants, with such additional potential shares to vest at a later date in furtherance of retention objectives. On May 4, 2026, 50% of the PSUs vested upon the Issuer's confirmation following the release of its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 that a performance criterion related to cumulative FILSPARI net revenue had been achieved, and contingent on continuous service by the Reporting Person, on January 31, 2027 an additional 25% of such PSUs will vest due to the timing of the achievement of such cumulative FILSPARI net revenue performance criterion. This sale was made pursuant to a written plan adopted on May 29, 2025, meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and includes the sale of shares to cover the tax obligation that occurred upon the vesting of performance restricted stock units. Each PSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's common stock at target, subject to adjustment based on the achievement of applicable performance conditions.

performance restricted stock units financial
"the Reporting Person was granted performance restricted stock units (PSUs) covering 8,500 shares"
Performance restricted stock units (PRSUs) are promises to deliver company shares to employees or executives only if the business meets specific performance targets and any time-based holding rules. Think of them as a bonus that converts into stock only after set goals are reached, so investors watch PRSUs for two reasons: they can dilute existing shares if paid out, and they signal how closely management’s pay is tied to company performance.
Rule 10b5-1(c) regulatory
"a written plan adopted on May 29, 2025, meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)"
Rule 10b5-1(c) is an SEC guideline that lets company insiders set up a written, pre-planned schedule to buy or sell their company stock when they are not in possession of material, nonpublic information. For investors, it matters because such plans can reduce the appearance of insider trading by separating decisions from inside knowledge—like putting your trades on autopilot—while also requiring scrutiny since pre-planned trades can still affect market confidence and share value.
