The AMT credit only recovers in years where regular tax exceeds AMT — typically a year with no ISO exercise. It carries forward indefinitely (Form 8801) and applies in any future tax year where regular tax exceeds AMT.
Estimates only. Excludes disqualifying dispositions, NSOs, multi-state moves, and AMT preferences other than ISO bargain elements. Long-term capital gains tax assumes a qualifying disposition (ISO held ≥1 yr from exercise and ≥2 yr from grant); state LTCG follows ordinary brackets except where the state grants preferential treatment (HI, ND, SC, WI, AR, NM) or has a dedicated LTCG-only tax (WA). Assumes you are within the $100K ISO limit (any portion of an annual ISO grant whose FMV at grant exceeds $100K is treated as NSO from the start, §422(d)). State AMT figures are 2025 (next-year values published in late 2026). Not financial advice.
QSBS note. If your shares qualify (typically pre-IPO C-corp grants held 5+ years), a federal rule lets you exclude up to $10M of gain on a future sale from federal tax. That single rule shifts exercise-timing math more than AMT does. (This is §1202 “qualified small-business stock”.) Modeled in beta, not here.
You solved the exercise window. The beta plans what comes after it: the new shares, your remaining equity, hedges, and taxes in one multi-year plan.

Equity comp at CYABRA, INC.
- Cyabra (a Tel Aviv, Israel based company that became Nasdaq-listed via SPAC merger in March 2026) grants equity under a dual-plan structure: a 2026 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan plus a 2026 Israeli Sub-Plan. The sub-plan exists to let Israeli employees receive options or RSUs under the tax-advantaged track of Section 102 of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance (gains held via a trustee for a required period can qualify for lower capital-gains tax rather than ordinary income tax). At the March 27, 2026 close of the business combination, the company also granted 400,000 RSUs to certain key employees that vested immediately (fully vested at closing) as a one-time transaction-related grant, rather than under a standard multi-year schedule.

CYABRA, INC. equity questions

Check your grant agreement for CYABRA, INC.'s exact terms.
