Before his passing, Joseph Darling's holdings included a significant personal stake in Anika Therapeutics. In 2019, he had $4 million worth of vested stock awards that were tied to his performance and the company’s success. Unfortunately, following his unexpected death in January 2020, all unvested stock options and other awards were forfeited. However, he left behind a legacy of leadership at Anika, with some of his previously held stocks still holding considerable value at the time of his passing. His holdings highlighted his belief in the company's future and were a testament to his role in driving its vision forward.
