One stack per ticker (current-employer RSUs, prior-employer holdings, index fund, etc.). Each stack has its own current price, growth assumption, and cost-basis lots.

Estimates only. Not financial advice.
Lock-in-now is deterministic (0%). Plans that wait depend on future prices; risk is near-zero when inventory comfortably exceeds the goal. Volatility: each stack's option-implied vol if a ticker is set, otherwise 30%. Lognormal model; real markets have fatter tails.

Garrett Camp and Travis Kalanick started UberCab in 2009 in San Francisco, and the company spent a decade in regulatory and labor fights over whether drivers are contractors. Three businesses now matter: Mobility for rides, Delivery built on the Eats acquisition and expansion, and Freight for trucking logistics. Dara Khosrowshahi replaced Kalanick as chief executive in 2017 after a governance crisis. The 2019 listing was among the largest of that year, and the company reached sustained operating profitability in 2023 and 2024 after exiting several loss-making regions.

Equity comp at Uber
- RSUs use single-trigger vesting: shares become yours as each portion vests on schedule, and the value is taxed as ordinary income at that point. No IPO or acquisition is required.

If you hold vested Uber (UBER) shares and need a set amount of cash by a date (a house down payment, tuition, a sabbatical, a business buy-in), the question is which lots to sell and in which tax years to keep the most after tax. This calculator builds the minimum-tax sell schedule across your lots, accounting for federal long-term capital gains, the net investment income tax, and your state.

Uber equity questions
- How much UBER stock do I sell to fund a goal without overpaying tax?
- It depends on your cost basis, your target amount and date, and how the sale spreads across tax years. Selling vested UBER shares triggers long-term capital-gains tax, plus the 3.8% net investment income tax and state tax above certain income, and bunching a large sale into one year can push the gain into a higher bracket. The calculator above builds the minimum-tax sell schedule across your lots to net your target amount by your date.
- Does Uber grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
- Equity compensation at Uber typically takes the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
- Do Uber RSUs use double-trigger vesting?
- No. Uber restricted stock units (RSUs) use single-trigger vesting: each tranche becomes yours as it vests on schedule, taxed as ordinary income at that point, with no liquidity event required.
