How do you estimate Palantir option worth in a job offer? Obviously the profit comes from the spread between the current price and the exercise price, but how to evaluate that solely based upon x options in an offer and ability to cash out? TC: 205k
Buddy of mine that works there says the valuation of the company hasn't changed much in the past 3 years. Therefore, the money you're spending to exercise your options is better spent on other investments. They offer periodic liquidity events where the company can buy back some of that stock for a heavily discounted price in exchange for some cash. All hearsay, so take with a grain of salt.
Also, in liquidity events you can only sell upto 10% of your options which might not really be much
Your base is 205k or other stuff?
Estimate the options at $0 because you'll never exercise them lmao
You might as well fucking feed your money to a goat, because you ain't getting any value from it.
0$
Palantir an overvalued consulting shop.
0 is best number
Don’t think Palantir is gonna IPO anytime soon. I’d take the value as 0.
They do liquidity events so it's basically deferred comp
The mood seems to be shifting - Uber, Lyft, AirBnB, Slack and a few other IPOs will push Palantir to go public else employees will start looking outside.
