Off topic -- option grants ... I've posted on other threads that option grants represent dollars leaving the company. I agree with you that those dollars should be counted as they leave. The response to my posts was overwhelmingly opposed to the idea: The grants are seen as some 'reward' for performance. I don't have any trouble 'rewarding' performance, it's just that the decision has a cost and that cost should be reported in an accurate, clear, and timely manner: No blue smoke and mirrors. I think the practice continues because the 'grants' come from pockets other than the 'grant' givers', and that those whose pockets are being picked have vision somewhat impaired by the wool pulled over their eyes. Reporting these 'expenses' on income statements would most certainly lead to some turmoil in stock prices. Cheers, PW.
