AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · Guardant Health, Inc. (GH)

Guardant Health grants co-CEOs 465,413 target PSUs each tied to relative TSR

Neutral Impact 3 of 5 shareholder Written later

Guardant Health's board approved performance-based restricted stock unit awards to co-CEOs Helmy Eltoukhy and AmirAli Talasaz, each with a target of 465,413 PSUs. The awards pay out only if the company's total shareholder return beats a set percentile versus S&P 500 constituents over three-year and five-year periods, so the grants create no value unless relative returns meet those thresholds.

Key points

  • Each co-CEO received a grant of 465,413 PSUs at target, approved November 2, 2026.
  • 25% of target PSUs cover a three-year period (June 1, 2026 to May 31, 2029); 75% cover a five-year period (June 1, 2026 to May 31, 2031).
  • Payout ranges from 0% of target below the 40th percentile to 250% at or above the 90th percentile; total vesting is capped at 250% of target.
