Without asking for numbers you don't want to share, how did the price you acquired it back for compared to the price they originally purchased it for?

Hmmm... I'm actually not sure if I can talk about the numbers from the original sale in 2017. But I'll say that the original sale was paid partly in stock options which vested over a few years and ended up being worth a lot. And the price of the buy back was much much less than that.

Funnily enough, in the original sale I negotiated for more cash and fewer options. Luckily for me they only moved a little bit in my direction since the options ended up being worth much more.
