Aurinia CEO Kevin Tang buys $12.5M of his own stock

The largest open-market insider purchase we structured this week — and it came from the chief executive himself.

Kevin Tang, chief executive of Aurinia Pharmaceuticals, made a multi-million-dollar open-market purchase of AUPH shares. A CEO buying in size on the open market — not exercising options, not on a pre-set schedule — is the single highest-conviction signal in the insider playbook: it is discretionary, it is personal capital, and it is public the moment it files.
