SBC % Revenue vs SBC % Market Cap
Revenue-based SBC % is the P&L view. Market-cap-based % is the shareholder dilution view — how much of the company is given away each year.
Market Cap vs Cumulative SBC
Total SBC expense paid since earliest data year vs current market cap. Shows the cumulative cost of stock-based compensation relative to company size.
GAAP vs "Adjusted" Earnings
GAAP net income already includes SBC as a real expense. But many companies highlight "adjusted" earnings that add SBC back, flattering profitability. The orange gap shows how much non-GAAP metrics overstate real earnings each year.
Ownership Retained Over Time
100 = your original ownership at the earliest data year. Net share issuance drives this down.
Annual Gross Dilution vs Buyback Offset
Red = gross share issuance from SBC. Green = shares retired via buybacks. Both as % of prior-year shares.
