KalVista (KALV) CMO records RSU vesting and tax sell-to-cover share sale
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
KalVista Pharmaceuticals chief medical officer Paul K. Audhya reported a mix of equity award vesting and tax-related share sales. He exercised and settled restricted stock units (RSUs) into 6,250 and 5,000 shares of common stock at no cost on separate days, reflecting routine equity compensation vesting where each RSU converts into one share.
To cover tax withholding from these RSU settlements, he sold 5,354 shares of common stock in an open-market "sell to cover" transaction at a weighted average price of $15.5668 per share, described as non-discretionary. After these transactions, he held 138,983 shares of common stock directly, with RSU awards continuing to vest in equal sixteenth installments on each quarterly anniversary of the vesting commencement date.
