About HII
HII (HII) is a public Aerospace/Defense company, incorporated in Delaware and headquartered in Newport News, VA.
Equity grants at HII typically include restricted stock units (RSUs).
Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc., (HII) is the largest military shipbuilding company in the United States as well as a provider of professional services to partners in government and industry. HII was formed on March 31, 2011, as a divestiture from Northrop Grumman.

Northrop Grumman spun off its shipbuilding division in 2011, creating the largest military shipbuilder in the United States. Newport News Shipbuilding in Virginia is the only yard that builds nuclear aircraft carriers and one of two that build submarines; Ingalls in Mississippi builds amphibious ships and destroyers. Mission Technologies adds unmanned systems and defense services. Revenue depends almost entirely on Navy shipbuilding budgets, and results turn on labor availability and multi-year fixed-price contract execution rather than product cycles.

Equity comp at HII
- 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.

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