Analysis · ELUT · Life Sciences
Elutia Inc. shareholders approved an amendment to the 2020 Incentive Award Plan, authorizing an additional 3,000,000 shares for future equity awards. This approval, following the proposal in April, means the company is now authorized to issue up to 3,000,000 more shares.
