Key Terms

4 terms

Non-Qualified Stock Option financial

"He was granted 2,604 non-qualified stock options linked to POOL CORP common stock."

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.

grant/award acquisition financial

"The Form 4 only shows a grant classified as a “grant, award, or other acquisition” of 2,604 non-qualified stock options"

exercise price financial

"The options carry an exercise price of $209.61 per share."

The exercise price is the fixed amount at which you can buy or sell an asset, like a stock, when using an options contract. It matters because it helps determine whether exercising the option will be profitable or not, depending on the current market price. Think of it as the set price you agree on today to buy or sell later.

expiration date financial

"and expire on April 29, 2036."

The expiration date is the deadline after which a financial contract, such as an option or a futures agreement, is no longer valid or can be exercised. It matters to investors because it determines the timeframe during which they can take action or benefit from the contract, similar to how a coupon or a food item has a limited period of usefulness. Once the expiration date passes, the contract loses its value or ability to be used.
