From the record

Geron Corporation's leadership, from its insiders' filings and its current reports: no one files under a chief executive's title, so that part is not read; the 11 officers and directors filing in the last fifteen months have been on the record a median of 3.1 years (bottom 16%); 8 officer or director changes were reported on Form 8-K since 2023-11-13, against the 11 people in charge now (bottom 24%; fewer changes for each person reads higher) (the Form 4 record, its Form 8-K reports). Years count from a person's first filing in the SEC's data sets, which begin in 2006, so each is a floor.

From the record

Geron Corporation's growth drivers, from the filed years to fiscal 2023: revenue grew -2.2% a year over the last three filed years against -37.2% over all 8, speeding up (top 11% of its family); the newest year grew -60.3% (bottom 13%); research spending grew -9.2% a year (bottom 32%); capital spending grew 48.6% a year (top 16%) (its annual reports). Geron Corporation tags no split of its revenue by line in the annual report on file, so growth by line cannot be read here; research and capital spending are on the trend.
