Frequently Asked Questions
-
You’re not stuck. We can model staged exercises, exercise-and-sell-to-cover, and compare non-recourse financing (true cost, covenants, trade-offs) against cash flow-friendly alternatives. We’ll align tactics with the expected Q1 tender, your vesting, and concentration risk.

We review cash flow, credit factors, and financial documentation to strengthen your lending profile. We help you prepare for bank conversations, evaluate loan options, and build strategies that can increase approval odds.

Plan before you opt to sell. We’ll build a tender offer liquidity model (after-tax proceeds across multiple sell amounts), a diversification roadmap, and coordinate tax-aware tactics (e.g., AMT audit for ISOs, treatment of NSO income). We’ll also factor company-specific limits once disclosed.
