Axon equity questions

How much does it cost to hedge AXON stock?

A zero-cost collar lowers that cost by selling away some upside. The calculator above prices both structures off the current AXON option chain and shows the annual cost, maximum loss, and tax treatment.
Does Axon grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
Equity compensation at Axon typically takes the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
