Coherent Corp (COHR) has seen new options introduced for trading, with a noteworthy expiration date of March 27th. This update focuses on the intriguing put and call options currently available, providing investors with potential strategies to enhance their portfolios.
Key Options Overview for March 27th
Put Option Details
The $195.00 put option is particularly interesting. It currently has a bid price of $18.20. An investor who sells to open this put contract is agreeing to buy COHR shares at $195.00. However, by doing so, they collect a premium, effectively lowering their cost basis to $176.80 per share, after considering the premium received.
Given that COHR’s stock is trading around $197.04, this represents about a 1% discount, indicating that the put option is out-of-the-money. The current analytics suggest that the chances of this put contract expiring worthless are around 60%. Should this occur, the premium would yield a return of 9.33% on the cash commitment, amounting to an annualized rate of 68.19%—referred to as the YieldBoost.
Call Option Insights
On the calls side, the $205.00 call option currently carries a bid price of $20.20. If an investor buys COHR shares at the current price and implements a covered call strategy by selling this call option, they commit to sell at $205.00.
This approach would facilitate a total return of 14.29% if the stock rises to the call price by the expiration date. However, it is crucial to consider potential gains that may be left behind if COHR shares experience significant growth. The $205.00 strike price represents a 4% premium to the present stock price, indicating that this call option is also out-of-the-money. The likelihood of this call option expiring worthless stands at 47%. In this scenario, the premium gathered would contribute an additional 10.25% return or 74.90% annualized back to the investor, again highlighting the YieldBoost concept.
Volatility and Market Dynamics
Implied volatility measures stand at 78% for the put option and 80% for the call option. The actual trailing twelve-month volatility for COHR, calculated using data from the last 251 trading days and the current stock price of $197.04, is observed to be 73%. These metrics may guide potential investors in their decision-making process.
