Interesting to see that OLV board is looking after key employees ahead of the curve here - well done !
This is the biggest single issue as a % of the headroom available under the ESOP since IPO. I assume that the ESOP is capped at 10.0% of TSOI.
The exercise price is some 50% above the current OLV market price so no-one can disparage this as a free gift - good work to reward your employees ahead of the re-rate. The options vest over a sensible period (1-4 years) so it aligns interests with all stakeholders here.
Given last quarters release mid January IMO I expect to 4C business update to be imminent and IMO I think it will be good.
