NUA and covered calls

How would covered calls (written on company stock in the plan) impact the NUA tax strategy?



That’s a very broad platform if your plan allows options. It should not affect the cost basis of NUA shares unless of course the shares are called away. Then you just have fewer shares remaining, the same as if you sold some shares. The option premium should not reduce the cost basis of the original shares.
