The company distributes plumbing, heating, and waterworks products to contractors across North America, having moved its primary listing from London to New York in stages through 2024 and 2025. Distribution is a local business won on inventory availability and branch density, since a contractor who cannot get a part today buys elsewhere. Residential repair and remodel activity, not new housing starts, supplies most demand. Scale in purchasing is the durable advantage over regional competitors. Headquarters are in Newport News, Virginia.

A protective put caps your downside on the FERG 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 FERG option chain, with annual cost, max loss, and tax-treatment notes.
Example: a 5,000-share FERG position at $244.47 is worth $1,222,350. A 1-year 30%-OTM put on that position typically runs 2-4% of position value per year (about $24,447 to $48,894) before any premium offset from a short call. The calculator prices both structures off FERG's current option chain so you see the actual cost for your chosen floor, tenor, and cap.
