Employee Stock Options financial

"Employee Stock Options (right to buy)"

Employee stock options are contracts that give workers the right to buy a company's shares at a set price sometime in the future, like a coupon that lets you purchase stock at today’s price later on. Investors care because they align employees’ incentives with company performance and create a potential future claim on shares that can reduce existing owners’ percentage and add to a company’s reported compensation costs.

Class A Common Stock financial

"underlying_security_title: "Class A Common Stock""

Class A common stock is a category of a company’s shares that carries a specific set of ownership rights—most commonly defined voting power and claims on dividends—set out in the company’s charter. For investors it matters because the class determines how much influence you have over corporate decisions, the share’s likely dividend and trading behavior, and how it compares in value to other share classes, like choosing a particular seat with different privileges at the company’s decision-making table.

change in control financial

"within six months following a "change in control""

A "change in control" occurs when the ownership or management of a company shifts significantly, such as through a merger, acquisition, or sale of a large part of its assets. This change can impact how the company is run and may influence its future direction. For investors, it matters because it can affect the company's stability, strategy, and value, often signaling potential changes in investment risk or opportunity.

FAQ

What did GSHD CFO Martin John Arthur report in this Form 4?

He reported receiving a grant of 40,000 employee stock options for Goosehead Insurance Class A common stock. These options are part of his compensation and give him the right to buy shares at a fixed exercise price in the future, subject to vesting.

What is the exercise price of the new Goosehead Insurance (GSHD) options?

The options have an exercise price of $49.12 per share. This means Martin John Arthur can purchase Goosehead Insurance Class A common stock at $49.12 per share once the options vest and are exercised, regardless of the market price at that time.

How do the GSHD CFO’s 40,000 stock options vest?

The 40,000 options vest in three equal installments of one third each. Vesting occurs on the first, second, and third anniversaries of the grant date, and each installment requires the CFO to remain employed through the applicable vesting date.

When do the Goosehead Insurance (GSHD) stock options granted to the CFO expire?

The options granted to the CFO expire on April 20, 2036. After that expiration date, any unexercised options will lapse, meaning they can no longer be used to purchase Goosehead Insurance Class A common stock at the exercise price.

What happens to the GSHD CFO’s options if there is a change in control?

If a defined change in control occurs and his employment is terminated without cause or for good reason within six months, all 40,000 options fully vest. This accelerated vesting protection is provided under the company’s Amended and Restated Omnibus Incentive Plan.
