Cygnus Metals Limited ( (AU:CY5) ) has shared an announcement.

Cygnus Metals has disclosed a change in director Ernest Mast’s holdings following the expiry of a tranche of unlisted options. The expired 576,355 options carried an exercise price of C$0.6012 and lapsed without consideration, leaving Mast’s shareholding unchanged but reducing his short-term option exposure.

After the expiry, Mast retains more than 6.3 million fully paid shares, a suite of longer-dated unlisted options with lower exercise prices, and multiple classes of performance rights expiring in 2030. The adjustment marginally simplifies the director’s equity profile and signals that higher-priced options are falling away while longer-dated incentives remain in place for ongoing alignment with shareholder interests.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:CY5) stock is a Buy with a A$0.35 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Cygnus Metals Limited stock, see the AU:CY5 Stock Forecast page.
