Richard,

what i am saying is that giving options to an employee, i.e. to buy shares at $1.10/share when the current market value (when the option is exercised) is $45.10/share means that the company is FOREGOING $44.00 from the sale of that share in the open market. That money could be added to their cash position. That is what the concept of opportunity cost is all about. The dilution would occur in any event.
