Current UFPT snapshot

As of May 15, 2026, spot at $215.12, ATM IV 40.70%, IV rank 39.77%, expected move 11.67%. The long put on UFPT 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 long put structure on UFPT specifically: UFPT IV at 40.70% 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 11.67% (roughly $25.10 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 UFPT expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on UFPT should anchor to the underlying notional of $215.12 per share and to the trader's directional view on UFPT stock.

UFPT long put setup

The UFPT 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 UFPT near $215.12, the first option leg uses a $220.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed UFPT 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 UFPT shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

UFPT thesis for this long put

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for UFPT extends from approximately $190.02 on the downside to $240.22 on the upside. A UFPT long put expresses a directional view that the underlying closes below the strike minus premium at expiration, frequently sized to hedge an existing long UFPT position with one put per 100 shares held. Current UFPT IV rank near 39.77% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the long put thesis on UFPT should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Healthcare name, UFPT options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to UFPT-specific events.

UFPT 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. UFPT positions also carry Healthcare sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move UFPT alongside the broader basket even when UFPT-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Long-premium structures like a long put on UFPT 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 UFPT chain quotes before placing a trade.
