Director TANG KEVIN purchases 1,600,000 shares (1.60M) for $12,713,125.64 across 6 transactions Feb–Mar 2025, raising holdings 19.0%.

Director Kevin Tang executed 6 open-market purchases totaling 1,600,000 shares (1.60M shares) for $12,713,125.64 between February 28 and March 4, 2025, at a blended average price of $7.95, increasing his holdings by 19.0% from 8,429,500 to 10,029,500 shares. The timing of these concentrated purchases follows recent declines in his same-ticker history (three prior buys in early December 2024 showed 30-day returns of -8.2%, -5.2%, and -4.2%, with 90-day outcomes not yet measurable), and occurs while the stock trades 22.6% below its 52-week high of $10.44, though near its 30-day average (+1.6% recent movement). His cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior buys with an average 90-day return of +8.6% and a 50.00% win rate, but his three same-ticker purchases at AUPH have not yet demonstrated positive 90-day returns, and his timing history across both tracks shows 0 of 0 prior buys well-timed at the 90-day mark. The underlying business shows positive momentum (annual revenue growth +34.0%, net income $14.4M on $67.8M quarterly revenue, P/E 17.96), establishing a context of operational expansion supporting the director's decision to substantially increase his equity position.

Director Kevin Tang bought 1.20M shares over 3 days (Dec 5-9) at blended $9.02; holdings now 8.43M (+16.6%).

Kevin Tang, a director at Aurinia Pharmaceuticals, executed 3 separate purchases totaling 1,200,000 shares for $10,822,000.00 between December 5–9, 2024, at prices ranging from $8.91 to $9.09 per share (blended average $9.02). This represents a 16.6% increase to his existing position and adds meaningfully to his stake during a period when the stock is trading near its 52-week high of $9.49, with strong recent momentum (+39.2% over 90 days and +9.7% over 30 days). Notably, Tang's cross-ticker track record shows modest historical success (35.29% 90-day win rate with +2.0% average 90-day return), suggesting his prior open-market signals have not been consistently prescient. The company's fundamentals remain mixed: while it posted +31.0% annual revenue growth and recent profitability ($14.4M net income in the latest quarter), it was unprofitable over its most recent full fiscal year, leaving lingering questions about sustainability of earnings.
