AI Insider Summary

The last time Elaine Heron's name appeared on a BioMarin Form 4 was June 3, 2024 — a routine option exercise paired with a tax-withholding disposition, the same mechanical pattern behind all 198,980 shares she's ever sold at the company. She hasn't transacted at BioMarin since. In the two years since, her attention — and her own money — has moved to two much smaller biotechs where she also holds board or officer roles. At Palvella Therapeutics, she made a genuine open-market purchase of 2,400 shares at $125.00 each on February 27, 2026, a roughly $300,000 commitment. At Vaxart, she bought 40,000 shares in November 2025 at just $0.405 and $0.393 — a much smaller dollar outlay (roughly $15,900) reflecting the stock's penny-share price, but a real purchase nonetheless, on top of hundreds of thousands of shares received via stock grants over the prior four years, including a 118,100-share grant as recently as July 16, 2026. Both purchases stand apart from the far larger volume of routine compensation grants running through both companies' records — they're the only transactions in this filing history where Heron put her own money in rather than simply receiving stock.

In that same window, her activity — and her own money — has shifted to two much smaller biotechs where she also holds board or officer roles. At Palvella Therapeutics, she made a genuine open-market purchase: 2,400 shares at $125.00 each on February 27, 2026, a roughly $300,000 commitment. It's her only real purchase at Palvella; the rest of her four recorded transactions there are stock grants, including a 24,700-share award in December 2024 and a 12,350-share award in June 2025.

At Vaxart, she made a similar real purchase, though at a very different scale of stock price: 40,000 shares bought on November 17, 2025 at $0.405 and $0.393 apiece — a roughly $15,900 outlay, small in dollars but a genuine market purchase into a stock trading at well under a dollar a share. That purchase sits alongside a much larger flow of stock grants at Vaxart: 118,100 shares granted on July 16, 2026 alone (78,700 at a stated $0.5149 reference price plus 39,400 with no listed price), on top of prior grants in 2022, 2023 and 2024 that pushed her total accumulated shares well past what any single purchase could explain.
