Schedule of Assumptions Used

The following summarizes the assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model to value stock options granted under the Stock Plan during the years ended December 31:

	2021		2020		2019
Risk-free interest rate	0.8% - 1.3%		0.3% - 1.5%		1.4% - 2.6%
Volatility (a)	27.2	%	21.1	%	19.9	%
Dividend yield (b)	0.4	%	0.4	%	0.4	%
Expected years until exercise	5.5 - 8.0		5.5 - 8.0		5.5 - 8.0
(a) Expected volatility is based on a weighted average blend of the company’s historical stock price volatility from July 2, 2016 (the date of separation from Danaher) through the stock option grant date and the average historical stock price volatility of a group of peer companies for the expected term of the options.
(b) The dividend yield is calculated by dividing our annual dividend, based on the most recent quarterly dividend rate, by Fortive’s closing stock price on the grant date.
