Getting Started In Employee Stock Options ReviewThe SEC in June 2009 approved a change in the CBOE and ISE rules to let vested employee stock options be considered usable collateral for selling listed call options on the underlying stock, as long as its approved by the company, and other steps must be followed. In Getting Started In Employee Stock Options, the authors John Olagues and John Summa go far beyond the basics indicated by the title and detail a call-options strategy that can help employees avoid prematurely exercising options and losing some of their value. While there are other resources that covers some of these topics, such as the articles in the Financial Planning: High Net Worth section on [...], anyone serous about this strategy for employee stock options will want to have this resource handy.
According to the authors (an experienced options market maker and a professional trader), the primary objective of their book is what they call "efficient management of ESOs" to allow individuals to maximize the "capture of time premium and intrinsic value of ESOs while minimizing the risk and tax liabilities." Although they understand the occasional need to exercise and sell to generate liquidity, their strategy, which is not covered in detail in other books, is to hedge employee stock options to increase the net gains. While the topic of hedging and selling call options remains controversial at many companies, this book explains how it can rejuvenate the perceived value of stock options and provide a better alternative to the transferable options programs set up by a few companies, such as Google.
The book's chapters give a detailed step-by-step approach to the strategy and a justification for it. For example, in one chapter it recommends "the 7 percent solution." This says that employees, soon after getting grants, should sell listed call options (known as "writing") equal to 7% of the number of employee stock options granted. The employees should also sell additional listed call options equal to between 7% and 10% of the stock held, if they already own a chunk of company stock. The chapter then covers the steps to follow, for the remaining years of the employee stock option term. While this is a highly technical topic, the information (along with some other ideas for companies to consider in their plans) is attractively presented, with side boxes for key definitions and tips, and examples to highlight key points.
