CCEP (Coca-Cola Europacific Partners PLC) trades in the Consumer Defensive sector, specifically Beverages - Non-Alcoholic, with a market capitalization of approximately $40.96B, a trailing P/E of 18.04, a beta of 0.49 versus the broader market, a 52-week range of 84.66-110.9, average daily share volume of 1.9M, a public-listing history dating back to 1986, approximately 41K full-time employees. These structural characteristics shape how CCEP stock options price implied volatility around earnings windows, capital events, and macro-driven sector rotations.

A beta of 0.49 indicates CCEP has historically moved less than the broader market, dampening realized volatility and producing tighter expected-move bands per unit of dollar exposure. CCEP pays a dividend, which adjusts put-call parity and shifts the ex-dividend pricing across the listed chain.

What is a butterfly on CCEP?

A long call butterfly buys one lower-strike call, sells two ATM calls, and buys one higher-strike call, paying a small net debit for a defined-risk position that maxes out if the underlying pins the middle strike at expiration.

Current CCEP snapshot

As of May 15, 2026, spot at $89.56, ATM IV 23.40%, IV rank 5.70%, expected move 6.71%. The butterfly on CCEP below is built from the same end-of-day chain, with strikes snapped to listed contracts and premiums pulled from the bid/ask midpoint at a 189-day expiry.

Why this butterfly structure on CCEP specifically: CCEP IV at 23.40% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a CCEP butterfly, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 6.71% (roughly $6.01 on the underlying). The 189-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated CCEP expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on CCEP should anchor to the underlying notional of $89.56 per share and to the trader's directional view on CCEP stock.

CCEP butterfly setup

The CCEP butterfly below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With CCEP near $89.56, the first option leg uses a $85.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed CCEP chain at a 189-day expiry; the cross-strike IV skew is reflected directly in the per-leg values rather than approximated. Quantity sizing assumes one contract per option leg (or 100 CCEP shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

When traders use butterfly on CCEP

Butterflies on CCEP are pinning bets - traders use them when they expect CCEP to settle near a specific level at expiration (often the prior close, a round number, or the max-pain strike) and want defined-risk exposure to that outcome.

CCEP thesis for this butterfly

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for CCEP extends from approximately $83.55 on the downside to $95.57 on the upside. A CCEP long call butterfly is a pinning play: it pays maximum at the middle strike if CCEP settles there at expiration, with the wing legs capping both the cost and the maximum loss to the net debit. Current CCEP IV rank near 5.70% sits in the lower third of its 1-year distribution, where IV often re-expands toward the mean; this favors premium-buying structures and disadvantages premium-selling structures on CCEP at 23.40%. As a Consumer Defensive name, CCEP options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to CCEP-specific events.

CCEP butterfly positions are structurally neutral / pin (limited-risk, limited-reward); the modeled P&L assumes European-style exercise at expiration and ignores early assignment, transaction costs, dividends paid before expiry on the stock leg (when present), and the bid-ask spread on the listed chain. CCEP positions also carry Consumer Defensive sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move CCEP alongside the broader basket even when CCEP-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current CCEP chain quotes before placing a trade.
