What is a butterfly on PATK?
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 PATK snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $91.15, ATM IV 48.40%, IV rank 7.61%, expected move 13.88%. The butterfly on PATK 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 butterfly structure on PATK specifically: PATK IV at 48.40% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a PATK butterfly, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 13.88% (roughly $12.65 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 PATK expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on PATK should anchor to the underlying notional of $91.15 per share and to the trader's directional view on PATK stock.
PATK butterfly setup
The PATK 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 PATK near $91.15, 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 PATK 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 PATK shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

|---|---|---|---|
| Buy 1 | Call | $85.00 | $9.20 |
| Sell 2 | Call | $90.00 | $6.15 |
| Buy 1 | Call | $95.00 | $3.60 |

When traders use butterfly on PATK
Butterflies on PATK are pinning bets - traders use them when they expect PATK 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.
PATK thesis for this butterfly
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for PATK extends from approximately $78.50 on the downside to $103.80 on the upside. A PATK long call butterfly is a pinning play: it pays maximum at the middle strike if PATK settles there at expiration, with the wing legs capping both the cost and the maximum loss to the net debit. Current PATK IV rank near 7.61% 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 PATK at 48.40%. As a Consumer Cyclical name, PATK options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to PATK-specific events.
PATK 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. PATK positions also carry Consumer Cyclical sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move PATK alongside the broader basket even when PATK-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current PATK chain quotes before placing a trade.
