"security_title: "Non-Qualified Stock Option (right to buy)""
A non-qualified stock option (NSO) is a contract that lets an employee or service provider buy company shares at a fixed price for a set period, like a voucher to purchase stock later at today’s price. It matters to investors because exercising NSOs creates ordinary income for the holder and can increase share count, affecting a company’s earnings and ownership mix; think of it as a future sale that can dilute existing shareholders and has immediate tax consequences for the recipient.

Financial contracts whose value is tied to the price or performance of another asset, such as a stock, bond, commodity, index, or currency; examples include options, futures and swaps. They matter to investors because they let you protect against price swings, bet on future moves or gain larger exposure with less upfront cash—like using a lever or insurance policy on an investment—so they can amplify gains and losses and help manage portfolio risk.
