An option holder (Swedish: optionsinnehavare) is the person who holds an option, such as a warrant or an employee stock option. The option gives the right, not the obligation, to buy or subscribe for shares at a set strike price. Terms and vesting determine when it can be exercised.
An option holder is not a shareholder until the option is exercised and the new shares are registered. Only then is the holder entered in the share ledger. Outstanding options still shape the future ownership picture.
An option gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an asset at a set price.
