EVER (EverQuote, Inc.) trades in the Communication Services sector, specifically Internet Content & Information, with a market capitalization of approximately $667.1M, a trailing P/E of 6.16, a beta of 0.55 versus the broader market, a 52-week range of 13.88-28.73, average daily share volume of 1.1M, a public-listing history dating back to 2018, approximately 324 full-time employees. These structural characteristics shape how EVER stock options price implied volatility around earnings windows, capital events, and macro-driven sector rotations.
A beta of 0.55 indicates EVER has historically moved less than the broader market, dampening realized volatility and producing tighter expected-move bands per unit of dollar exposure. The trailing P/E of 6.16 is on the value side, where IV often compresses outside event windows because forward growth expectations are already discounted into the share price.

Current EVER snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $17.57, ATM IV 65.00%, IV rank 30.74%, expected move 18.63%. The iron condor on EVER 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 34-day expiry.
Why this iron condor structure on EVER specifically: EVER IV at 65.00% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so the credit collected on a EVER iron condor sits in line with its long-run distribution, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 18.63% (roughly $3.27 on the underlying). The 34-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated EVER expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on EVER should anchor to the underlying notional of $17.57 per share and to the trader's directional view on EVER stock.
EVER iron condor setup
The EVER iron condor below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With EVER near $17.57, the first option leg uses a $18.45 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed EVER chain at a 34-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 EVER shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

EVER thesis for this iron condor
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for EVER extends from approximately $14.30 on the downside to $20.84 on the upside. A EVER iron condor is a delta-neutral premium-collection structure that pays off when EVER stays inside the inner short strikes through expiration; the wing width should reflect the trader's tolerance for the maximum loss scenario where the underlying breaches an outer strike. Current EVER IV rank near 30.74% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the iron condor thesis on EVER should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Communication Services name, EVER options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to EVER-specific events.
EVER iron condor positions are structurally neutral / range-bound; 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. EVER positions also carry Communication Services sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move EVER alongside the broader basket even when EVER-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Short-premium structures like a iron condor on EVER carry tail risk when realized volatility exceeds the implied move; review historical EVER earnings reactions and macro stress periods before sizing. Always rebuild the position from current EVER chain quotes before placing a trade.
