What is a collar on PRVA?
A collar pairs long stock with a protective out-of-the-money put financed by a short out-of-the-money call, capping both tails of the position around the current spot.
Current PRVA snapshot
As of May 15, 2026, spot at $22.98, ATM IV 19.40%, IV rank 5.62%, expected move 5.56%. The collar on PRVA 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 collar structure on PRVA specifically: IV regime affects collar pricing on both sides; compressed PRVA IV at 19.40% typically pushes the short call premium to roughly offset the long put cost, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 5.56% (roughly $1.28 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 PRVA expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on PRVA should anchor to the underlying notional of $22.98 per share and to the trader's directional view on PRVA stock.
PRVA collar setup
The PRVA collar below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With PRVA near $22.98, the first option leg uses a $24.13 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed PRVA 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 PRVA shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

| Buy 100 shares | Stock | $22.98 | long |

| Buy 1 | Put | $21.83 | N/A |

PRVA thesis for this collar
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for PRVA extends from approximately $21.70 on the downside to $24.26 on the upside. A PRVA collar hedges an existing long PRVA position with a protective put while financing the put cost via a short call; when the premiums roughly offset, the collar acts as a near-zero-cost insurance band around the current spot. Current PRVA IV rank near 5.62% 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 PRVA at 19.40%. As a Healthcare name, PRVA options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to PRVA-specific events.
PRVA collar positions are structurally neutral (protective); 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. PRVA positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move PRVA alongside the broader basket even when PRVA-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current PRVA chain quotes before placing a trade.
