Charles Trimble founded the company in 1978 to commercialize satellite positioning, and it built a business around putting precise location into industrial work: surveying instruments, machine control for earthmoving equipment, and guidance for agricultural vehicles. The software layer that plans the work and records what was built has become the more valuable half, converting a hardware sale into a subscription. Construction and agriculture capital cycles drive demand, which makes results more volatile than the recurring-revenue mix suggests. Interoperability with equipment makers is a persistent strategic tension. Headquarters are in Westminster, Colorado.

Equity comp at Trimble

  • Trimble's Change in Control Severance Agreements use a double-trigger structure: accelerated vesting of outstanding equity awards only occurs if a qualifying termination happens within 12 months after a change in control (or within 3 months before one, if connected to the deal). There is no single-trigger acceleration and no excise tax gross-up for named executive officers, meaning executives bear any excise tax themselves rather than the company reimbursing it.
  • RSUs use double-trigger vesting. Two things must both happen before the shares are yours: (1) the normal time-based vesting completes, and (2) the company has a liquidity event (an IPO or an acquisition). Until both happen, you do not yet own the shares and you do not owe tax on them.
  • Vesting schedule: Employee RSUs typically vest in three equal annual installments over 3 years (33.3% per year), rather than the more common 4-year schedule with a 1-year cliff..

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

Example: a 5,000-share TRMB position at $57.52 is worth $287,600. A 1-year 30%-OTM put on that position typically runs 2-4% of position value per year (about $5,752 to $11,504) before any premium offset from a short call. The calculator prices both structures off TRMB's current option chain so you see the actual cost for your chosen floor, tenor, and cap.

Trimble equity questions

How much does it cost to hedge TRMB 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 TRMB'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 TRMB option chain and shows the annual cost, maximum loss, and tax treatment.
Does Trimble grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
Equity compensation at Trimble typically takes the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
Do Trimble RSUs use double-trigger vesting?
Yes. Trimble restricted stock units (RSUs) vest only when two things both happen: the time-based schedule completes, and the company has a liquidity event such as an initial public offering (IPO) or an acquisition. Until both occur you do not own the shares and owe no tax on them.
