Estate note. Heirs receive a stepped-up basis at death (§1014), eliminating built-in gain on inherited shares. Older holders who plan to bequeath rather than sell may rationally never de-concentrate.

Founded in Silicon Valley in 1969 and later redomiciled to Singapore, the company builds products other companies design, running electronics manufacturing for customers across automotive, medical, industrial, and cloud infrastructure. Contract manufacturing is a scale business with thin margins, so the strategy has been to move up into higher-value segments where engineering content and regulatory qualification make a customer harder to move. Medical devices and automotive electronics carry longer design cycles and stickier relationships than consumer hardware. Data-center power and cooling products have become the growth line. Headquarters are in Austin, Texas.

If a meaningful share of your net worth sits in FLEX, concentration risk is the question. This calculator quantifies drawdown impact at 30 / 50 / 70%, and the trade-off between selling down (tax cost now) versus hedging (option premium drag), auto-filled with FLEX's option-implied volatility.

Example: 5,000 FLEX shares at $120.24 is a $601,200 position. A 30% drawdown costs $180,360; a 50% drawdown costs $300,600; a 70% drawdown costs $420,840. The calculator quantifies the trade-off between selling down (immediate capital-gains tax) and hedging (option premium drag) using FLEX's option-implied volatility and your cost basis.

Flex equity questions

How much FLEX stock is too much?
There is no single threshold, but the larger the share of your net worth in one stock, the more a single bad year can set back your plans. The calculator above quantifies the drawdown impact at 30, 50, and 70 percent for your FLEX position and weighs selling down (which triggers capital-gains tax now) against hedging (which costs option premium).
Does Flex grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
Equity compensation at Flex typically takes the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
