Hmmm, didn't know about that rule. Could it be that CSCO has been holding shares to accomodate option programs? BTW This is a good discussion. I do think we need to get to the cost issue though... If what you're saying is true and that CSCO issues new shares for employee exercises then there is a dilutive effect however the expense is???? certainly not $40B. However, if they are issuing new shares I don't see where they're coming from.... they must be pulling them out of their ....... because their not in the 10K.
