Director Ownership
I think there has been some fair criticism in the past (some slung by yours truly on this platform if I’m honest) about the lack of direct ownership of actual shares (not options) by Anteris insiders. There have been some fair responses to it over the years also — such as, the apparent inappropriateness of on-market buys when the company was in active negotiations for sale / partnerships etc etc (insert palatable excuse here). The unspoken subtext, of course, is that — for much of Anteris’ history — the company has just not been a sensible place for sensible people to put their real money. I, for one, am just happy that Anteris has sensible people running it. Australians can be relaxed like that. I can’t see the Americans copping it but. Expect to see these options looking very different by December 2025: ASX Announcement 20th Dec 2024 - Initial Director’s Interest Notice.
