Before tax; assumes a simple common-share exit
How this is calculated
- Ownership is options granted divided by fully diluted shares.
- Gross value at exit is that ownership times the exit valuation; net subtracts the cost of exercising.
- This assumes a simple common-share exit with no preferences and ignores tax, both of which matter in real life.
