>> But if a company's road to accounting profits is extended by years because of stock-option expensing — even though plenty of economic profits are rolling into the front door — they're going to find it difficult to get funding. If they reduce their options grants to boost their accounting-based bottom line, they'll have to settle for less than the best talent.
