"Options should be based on performance that can be measured." Options were granted to the guys at least 5 years ago, at a market price of that time. If the stock today is higher, and they cash out, it means that their performance was positive. The exercise price above granted price is easily measurable. What is your problem here? "Options should be DISCLOSED not expensed." It looks like people here start to understand (slowly) that options are labor compensation expenses no matter how to slice this. Expenses must be expensed, would you agree?
