#espp

Ok, what is actually happening with GFS price. Is it organic in any way or is it merely resultant of including Apple in recent headlines?

Those of you involved inESPP as well as those receiving RSU should be very interested in the answer.

questioning do you think its a good time to sell shares or wait till after next months earnings?

He admits he stayed too long in the stock, thought EH turn around plan was solid, had high hopes

He now realizes he was wrong

All investors have a timeline and then they lose patience, take the loss and move on

Should we do the same, that espp hurts being down 50%..in some cases much more

In essence, it's either going down more, or will never recover, even if it does, it will take long, better to realize the loss and put the remainder into something that actually performs

What wrong with ESPP?! I got the email that shares were purchased at 108$ each for 10800$ worth but I'm only getting 85 shares instead of 100! WTF! Is it taxes?! If I sell now I basically just get back my money (actually 40$ loss).

Just from reading slack channels. Even employees don't believe in the stock.

Something supposed to be a benefit is now a financial burden.

Another "benefit" down the drain it goes.

stock price dropped from 150 to 130 since Jan 31. Due to espp purchase date shift, we will lose 20 dollars per share if we sell espp right after we get it. Who made this bad decision for purchase shift?

Looks to be a well coordinated strategy to push earnings call to March 31. The drop in share prices is almost 15% now, wiping out any gains on ESPP.

This is as pathetic as it gets, no need to invest in ESPP going forward if this is how cheap this company is going to get to.

MF is literally MF.

Anyone else kicking themselves for not selling EOY 2024? I invested 6% since working here and lost half. Now with the lesser match w/401k, I plan on pulling the plug once (if it does) hit 400 on ESPP. I can't imagine how people close to retiring feel about this.
I wanted to retire by 55 - and lived like a pauper to invest extra money. Really sad when the CEO's cash out making bank.

How do we keep haw a declining stock prices. All my ESPP is worth nothing. Putting money on my bank account at 0% would be worth more

1) Stop any charitable donations thru’ payroll deduction

2) ESPP - you’re funding a hole in your portfolio

….add other ideas

Feels like this program is a waste since SF took over. Even with the 20% match, I would have more money if I took the cash and buried it in the yard. Feels like I’ve been part of a ponzi scam and waiting for it all to crumble. I think I’m done with the program. Any others dropping it?

The stock is down 6.5% over the past six months.

Under the employee stock purchase program, shares are acquired at the end of each six-month period. At that time, a charge appears.

Is that charge simply the cost of the shares purchased, or does it also include taxes on any profit?

My understanding is that the shares are purchased at the lowest price during the previous six months. If the stock price is higher at the time of purchase, the difference may be treated as employment income and taxed accordingly.

If the stock price drops shortly after purchase, does that mean you effectively paid tax on income that you never actually realized?

Honestly unbelievable. Losing money on PYPL through ESPP feels like a joke.

I’ve participated in ESPP for several years, and the lack of a consistent strategy is becoming hard to ignore.

Leadership keeps reacting on short-term measures instead of planning; repeated layoffs every few months erode trust internally and externally.

It’s time for a proactive plan that lasts longer than a calendar quarter. Credibility matters.

Did any one get the email of ESPP enrollment? I saw it on circuit but did not receive the email yet. Does it mean I am not eligible anymore for enrollment l?

Left nike 18 months ago and I had a huge amount of Nike stocks. Sold everything today at a 12% loss. I held nike stocks only because it was part of ESPP. This is my first time losing money on the stock market but it is not the 12% that su-ks! It is the cost of losing out on 17%-20% in the broad index funds. Unless nike does 40%-50%, there is no reason to hold nike for the next few years. Had hopes on EH for a few months but the execution is terrible. Best case for NKE is 70 at the end of the year. Sp500 will do 10% meanwhile.

I am done with following nike - great brand, worst company to work for!

There was a time when partaking in the ESPP was a no-brainer. An immediate and minimum profit of 15% off the lower of the two semi annual corporate purchase opps. Those days are long gone. An employee comp perk that is no longer. Options are a close second in complete failure. The market is always a risk but nike stock has become one of the worst investments one can make (going back at least 3-4 years) and with no end in sight. Sad to be a shareholder. And to be an employee who relied on these benefits as part of their overall comp package.

What is everyone planning to do with their OT stocks (from ESPP or other means). Sell? Hold? It is at a much better price than what is was before. so just sell and invest in some better company, or could this go higher than what it is currently. When OT slowly divests the non-core portions, would it lead to reduction in stock value?

Anyone gave insight why there is only one offer period for 2026? They announce there in no offer for December 2025 for the first have of 2026.

After everything that happened this year I decided to withdraw my ESPP contribution and not participate anymore. I was maxing out at 10% and cannot afford to lose more nor wait another 2 years just for it to go back to mediocre 120.

Can we just assume we’ll have none of these benefits anymore?

I haven’t sold my ESPP since 2018 - should I sell and will this rally higher?

I've been curious. If you are LR and the ESPP purchase date 7/1 or 1/1 falls in your notice period before separation agreement kicks in, would this mean you can still buy that round of stock?

What happens to the current ESPP balance? Do we get stocks or do we get the money back? My notice date was Sept 2 and last date is Sept 22.
As per the FAQ, if termination date is after the 15th, you get stocks but I am trying to understand will it look at the 2nd or 22nd?

What are your thoughts on when, or even if, NKE gets back to $100. I need my ESPP to get back in the green so I can officially abandon Nike forever.
