Step-Up Option or Warrant

A call option with one or more scheduled increases in the strike price. Most common in the common stock warrant market, these instruments are usually designed to be held to expiration barring a large increase in the underlying stock's dividend. Analytically, the value is rarely much greater than the value of a single strike option or warrant struck at the last (highest) strike. See Complex Option.
