Proxy filing summary
28 Apr, 2026Executive summary
Annual Meeting scheduled for June 9, 2026, with shareholders voting on board nominees amid a contested proxy contest with DOMA Perpetual Capital Management.
Company highlights strong operational progress and stock performance, with shares up over 35% since launching the 5x30 strategy.
5x30 strategy focuses on five pillars: patients served, product revenue, profitability, pipeline advancement, and partnerships, targeting durable growth through 2030.
Returned $150 million to shareholders in 2025 and $50 million in 2026 via share repurchases, reducing outstanding shares from 47 million to 39 million.
Voting matters and shareholder proposals
Shareholders are urged to vote for three board nominees—Christopher Christie, Samit Hirawat, MD, and Thomas Wiggans—on the BLUE proxy card.
Board strongly opposes DOMA’s three nominees, citing lack of public company and biopharmaceutical experience.
Board recommends voting against DOMA’s nominees due to concerns over conflicts of interest and lack of relevant expertise.
Board of directors and corporate governance
Board refreshed with five new independent directors since October 2023, with a sixth nominated for election.
Board composition includes expertise in executive leadership, M&A, R&D, operations, commercialization, and supply chain.
Board separated Chair and CEO roles in January 2024 to enhance accountability.
Bylaws amended to adopt majority voting for uncontested director elections and plurality for contested elections.
Board regularly engages with shareholders, including 17 meetings with DOMA since September 2023.
