Equity comp at Banzai International, Inc.
- Banzai International went public via a SPAC (a shell company that merges with a private business to take it public without a traditional IPO) merger with 7GC & Co. Holdings in December 2023 and trades on Nasdaq as BNZI. As a small, distressed public company, it has executed two reverse stock splits to stay above Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirement (1-for-10 in July 2025, then 1-for-20 effective May 2026) and has repeatedly registered resale and shelf share offerings that dilute existing holders. Equity holders with legacy options or RSUs should account for this history of reverse splits and dilution when valuing their position.

A protective put caps your downside on the PARA 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 PARA option chain, with annual cost, max loss, and tax-treatment notes.
Example: a 5,000-share PARA position at $1.23 is worth $6,150. A 1-year 30%-OTM put on that position typically runs 2-4% of position value per year (about $123 to $246) before any premium offset from a short call. The calculator prices both structures off PARA's current option chain so you see the actual cost for your chosen floor, tenor, and cap.
