RMNI (Rimini Street, Inc.) trades in the Technology sector, specifically Software - Application, with a market capitalization of approximately $399.9M, a trailing P/E of 11.29, a beta of 1.31 versus the broader market, a 52-week range of 2.87-5.38, average daily share volume of 426K, a public-listing history dating back to 2015, approximately 2K full-time employees.

What is a long put on RMNI?
A long put buys downside exposure with a fixed maximum loss equal to the premium paid; profit accrues if the underlying closes below the strike minus premium at expiration.
Current RMNI snapshot
As of June 30, 2026, spot at $4.25, ATM IV 110.00%, IV rank 38.48%, expected move 31.54%. The long put on RMNI 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 17-day expiry.
Why this long put structure on RMNI specifically: RMNI IV at 110.00% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so strategy selection should anchor more to the directional thesis than to the IV regime, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 31.54% (roughly $1.34 on the underlying). The 17-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated RMNI expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on RMNI should anchor to the underlying notional of $4.25 per share and to the trader's directional view on RMNI stock.
RMNI long put setup
The RMNI long put below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With RMNI near $4.25, the first option leg uses a $4.25 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed RMNI chain at a 17-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 RMNI shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

RMNI thesis for this long put
The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for RMNI extends from approximately $2.91 on the downside to $5.59 on the upside. A RMNI long put expresses a directional view that the underlying closes below the strike minus premium at expiration, frequently sized to hedge an existing long RMNI position with one put per 100 shares held. Current RMNI IV rank near 38.48% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the long put thesis on RMNI should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Technology name, RMNI options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to RMNI-specific events.
RMNI long put positions are structurally bearish; 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. RMNI positions also carry Technology sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move RMNI alongside the broader basket even when RMNI-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Long-premium structures like a long put on RMNI are particularly exposed to IV-crush risk through scheduled events (earnings, FDA decisions, central-bank meetings) where IV typically contracts post-event regardless of the directional outcome. Always rebuild the position from current RMNI chain quotes before placing a trade.
