EMI vs Growth Shares calculator

What's the best option to give shares to your team - EMI options or Growth Shares? Learn more about how to use the calculator before you get started.

The calculations below are based on a few assumptions.

  • No other shares have been issued
  • Current shareholders have paid nothing for their shares (and will be subject to CGT at 20% on sale)
  • EMI Options are exercised at current share price, only on exit (and will be subject to Entrepreneurs' Relief CGT at 10%)
  • Proceeds from EMI Options exercised are added to exit valuation
  • Growth Shares are issued at a hurdle above current share price
