Founded in 1969 by Jerry Sanders and seven Fairchild Semiconductor colleagues, AMD has grown into a Santa Clara-based powerhouse in x86 CPUs (Ryzen and EPYC), Radeon GPUs, Instinct AI accelerators, and Xilinx FPGAs following the $49B 2022 acquisition. CEO Lisa Su, at the helm since 2014, engineered the turnaround that closed the gap with Intel and challenged Nvidia in AI silicon. Q3 2025 revenue hit $9.2B (up 36% YoY), with the MI350 Series ramping faster than any prior product and OpenAI committing to 6GW of Instinct GPU deployment.

Equity comp at AMD
- 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.

A protective put caps your downside on the AMD position at a chosen floor; a zero-cost collar pays for that floor by capping the upside. This calculator prices both structures off the current AMD option chain, with annual cost, max loss, and tax-treatment notes.
Example: a 5,000-share AMD position at $507.29 is worth $2,536,450. A 1-year 30%-OTM put on that position typically runs 2-4% of position value per year (about $50,729 to $101,458) before any premium offset from a short call. The calculator prices both structures off AMD's current option chain so you see the actual cost for your chosen floor, tenor, and cap.

AMD equity questions
- How much does it cost to hedge AMD stock?
- The cost of a protective put depends on how far below the current price you set the floor, how long the protection lasts, and AMD's option-implied volatility. A zero-cost collar lowers that cost by selling away some upside. The calculator above prices both structures off the current AMD option chain and shows the annual cost, maximum loss, and tax treatment.
- Does AMD grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
- Equity compensation at AMD typically takes the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
- Do AMD RSUs use double-trigger vesting?
- No. AMD 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.
