Sempra is a North American public utility holding company based in San Diego, California. The company is one of the largest utility holding companies in the United States, with nearly 40 million consumers. Sempra's focus is on electric and natural gas infrastructure.

The 1998 merger of Pacific Enterprises and Enova created the company, which owns San Diego Gas and Electric, SoCalGas, and a large regulated utility in Texas. Regulated utilities earn an authorized return on capital invested, so rate-base growth rather than sales volume drives earnings. Infrastructure for liquefied natural gas export adds a business with different, contract-driven economics. California wildfire liability is the risk that distinguishes the utility from peers elsewhere. Headquarters are in San Diego.

A protective put caps your downside on the SRE 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 SRE option chain, with annual cost, max loss, and tax-treatment notes.
Example: a 5,000-share SRE position at $87.18 is worth $435,900. A 1-year 30%-OTM put on that position typically runs 2-4% of position value per year (about $8,718 to $17,436) before any premium offset from a short call. The calculator prices both structures off SRE's current option chain so you see the actual cost for your chosen floor, tenor, and cap.

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