4DMT announces new employment inducement grants, granting 58,900 Restricted Stock Units to three new non-executive employees under the 2025 Employment Inducement Award Plan. The grants aim to attract new employees and transform treatment paradigms in blinding retinal vascular diseases, cystic fibrosis, and other conditions.
4D Molecular Therapeutics (Nasdaq: FDMT), a leading late-stage biotechnology company, has granted 58,900 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) to three new non-executive employees. The compensation committee approved these inducement grants on August 12, 2025. The RSUs were awarded under the Company's 2025 Employment Inducement Award Plan, which was established in February 2025. This plan operates under Nasdaq Global Market Rule 5635(c)(4), specifically designed for equity grants used to attract new employees to the company [1].The new employees join 4DMT as the company continues to advance durable and disease-targeted therapeutics. The company's lead product candidate, 4D-150, is designed to provide multi-year sustained delivery of anti-VEGF (aflibercept and anti-VEGF-C) with a single, safe, intravitreal injection. This therapy aims to reduce the treatment burden associated with current bolus injections for conditions such as wet age-related macular degeneration and diabetic macular edema. The company's second product candidate, 4D-710, is the first known genetic medicine to demonstrate successful delivery and expression of the CFTR transgene in the lungs of people with cystic fibrosis after aerosol delivery [1].
The grants are part of 4DMT's strategy to attract top talent and accelerate its research and development efforts. By offering equity compensation, the company aims to align the interests of its employees with those of its shareholders. This approach is particularly important for a biotechnology company like 4DMT, which is focused on developing innovative treatments for serious diseases [1].
