Todd McKinnon and Frederic Kerrest, both Salesforce alumni, started the company in 2009 as Saasure before rebranding to Okta in 2010. From its San Francisco base, the firm built workforce identity products (single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, lifecycle management) and went public on Nasdaq in April 2017. Acquiring Auth0 for $6.5 billion in 2021 added customer identity and developer-focused authentication. A 2022 LAPSUS$ intrusion through a third-party support contractor pushed Okta to tighten vendor controls. Fiscal 2026 revenue reached $2.92 billion across roughly 18,000 customers.

A protective put caps your downside on the OKTA 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 OKTA option chain, with annual cost, max loss, and tax-treatment notes.

Example: a 5,000-share OKTA position at $116.27 is worth $581,350. A 1-year 30%-OTM put on that position typically runs 2-4% of position value per year (about $11,627 to $23,254) before any premium offset from a short call. The calculator prices both structures off OKTA's current option chain so you see the actual cost for your chosen floor, tenor, and cap.

Okta equity questions

How much does it cost to hedge OKTA 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 OKTA'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 OKTA option chain and shows the annual cost, maximum loss, and tax treatment.
Does Okta grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
Equity compensation at Okta 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 Okta RSUs use double-trigger vesting?
No. Okta 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.
