Founded in 2003 by Tom Gonser, Court Lorenzini, and Eric Ranft in Seattle, the company pioneered cloud-based electronic signatures before relocating its headquarters to San Francisco. An April 2018 NASDAQ debut under ticker DOCU raised $543 million, and pandemic-driven remote work pushed the stock to record highs before growth decelerated sharply in 2022. CEO Allan Thygesen, a former Google ads executive who took the helm in late 2022, has refocused the roadmap on Intelligent Agreement Management, pairing eSignature with CLM, Insight AI, and Lens contract analytics. FY2025 revenue reached roughly $3.0 billion, up 7.8% year over year.

Equity comp at DocuSign
- 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 DOCU 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 DOCU option chain, with annual cost, max loss, and tax-treatment notes.
Example: a 5,000-share DOCU position at $44.2 is worth $220,975. A 1-year 30%-OTM put on that position typically runs 2-4% of position value per year (about $4,420 to $8,839) before any premium offset from a short call. The calculator prices both structures off DOCU's current option chain so you see the actual cost for your chosen floor, tenor, and cap.

DocuSign equity questions
- How much does it cost to hedge DOCU 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 DOCU'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 DOCU option chain and shows the annual cost, maximum loss, and tax treatment.
- Does DocuSign grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
- Equity compensation at DocuSign typically takes the form of non-qualified stock options (NSOs) and restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
- Do DocuSign RSUs use double-trigger vesting?
- No. DocuSign 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.
