About Danaher
Danaher (DHR) is a public Other company, incorporated in Delaware and headquartered in Washington, DC.
Equity grants at Danaher typically include restricted stock units (RSUs).
Brothers Steven and Mitchell Rales converted a real estate trust into an industrial holding company in 1984 and built it around the Danaher Business System, a Toyota-derived operating discipline applied to every acquisition. The portfolio has been repeatedly reshaped: industrial assets were spun off as Fortive in 2016 and Envista in 2019, and the $21.4 billion Cytiva purchase from General Electric in 2020 concentrated the company on biotechnology, diagnostics, and life sciences. Recurring consumables and service supply most revenue. Headquarters are in Washington, D.C.

Danaher equity questions
- How much does it cost to hedge DHR 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 DHR'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 DHR option chain and shows the annual cost, maximum loss, and tax treatment.
- Does Danaher grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
- Equity compensation at Danaher typically takes the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
- Do Danaher RSUs use double-trigger vesting?
