Vicor insider filing reveals 4,539-option award to CFO James F. Schmidt

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

On June 20, 2025, Vicor Corp (VICR) filed a Form 4 detailing an equity award to its Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, Secretary and Director, James F. Schmidt.

The filing shows a grant of 4,539 non-qualified stock options with an exercise price of $44.07 per share under the company’s Amended and Restated 2000 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. The options vest over five years and expire on June 20, 2035. After the grant, Mr. Schmidt directly holds 4,539 options and 875 shares of common stock.

No purchases or sales of common shares were reported. Given the award’s small size relative to Vicor’s total shares outstanding, the disclosure is routine and implies minimal dilution.

Insights

Corporate Governance Expert

Routine option grant to CFO; minimal size, aligns incentives, little dilution, neutral for valuation. Signals executive commitment but no immediate trading insight for investors today.

The Form 4 records a standard compensation action: 4,539 stock options at $44.07, vesting evenly over five years and lasting through 2035. Such grants are common for senior executives, tying compensation to long-term share performance. The absence of share sales or purchases indicates no directional signal about near-term price expectations. With Vicor’s share count in the tens of millions, potential dilution from 4,539 options is immaterial. Overall, the filing neither strengthens nor weakens the investment case but does confirm continued executive tenure and alignment of interests.
