Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, we issued 0.2 million shares of our common stock valued at $23.4 million upon the achievement of a commercial milestone related to the Embody acquisition. The shares were issued to the former Embody shareholders whom we reasonably believed to be accredited investors in a private transaction exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) and Regulation D under the Securities Act. To minimize dilution from issuing shares for the milestone settlement, we repurchased 0.2 million shares of our common stock in February 2024.
