The floor price is the minimum price at which a security, asset, or offering will be sold or accepted, acting like a seller’s “bottom line” or a reserve in an auction. For investors it matters because it sets a visible downside limit and can influence trading, valuation, and expectations of risk—like knowing there’s a safety net that a sale won’t go below a set level.
