What is PPLI's expected move for earnings?

The expected move is what the at-the-money options in the expiry containing the report imply the stock will move. This page publishes the move implied before each of PPLI's past reports and the move that actually followed. The figure for an upcoming report is on the forward board.

How is front-month IV crush different from IV30 crush?

Front-month crush measures the at-the-money implied volatility of the expiry that actually contains the earnings report, from the afternoon before to the session after. A 30-day constant-maturity measure blends that expiry with expiries that hold no event, so it consistently reports a shallower collapse.

Why measure the earnings move at 10:00 instead of the close?

Close-to-close prices an exit at 16:00 the day after the report. A position is usually closed near the open, so this page shows two realized moves for each report: C2C, the move to the next close, and By 10:00, the move to 10:00 the next morning.

PPLI · the May 4 ’26 report, split and ranked

The options price an earnings move as one number. We take out the drift the stock would have had anyway, then rank what is left, the report’s own part, against PPLI’s earlier reports. Both were fixed at 15:46 ET the day before, and the history below does the same for every report.

1 · Split

7.4% quoted, 5.9% of it the report

The options ran nine trading sessions, so the quote also carries nine days of the drift PPLI has anyway: 4.5%. The two combine as squares, not sums, so 5.9 and 4.5 give 7.4. The report is 63% of that expiry’s risk.

§3 Splitting the move

2 · Rank

Higher than four of its last eleven

We rank only the report’s part, and only against PPLI’s own earlier reports, so a jumpy stock does not read rich for being jumpy. 5.9% is the 36th percentile: neither rich nor cheap for PPLI. Read it as roughly there: its part has a wide error bar, 0.4% to 8.3%, which takes in every one of the eleven, so the board does not sort on it.

§5 Richness

3 · What happened

Moved 8.4%, past the 5.9%

−8.4% by the next close, −6.1% by 10:00 the next morning. The rank compares the price with PPLI’s past and does not forecast the move.

how these numbers are measured

A day's price path that ends near where it started: a short graphite bracket for the move from close to close, beside a much taller oxblood one for how far it swung in between

to the closein between

Two ways to measure the move

Closing prices miss the open

If you hold through the report you meet the open, not the close. We publish both: the move from one close to the next, and where the stock stood at 10:00 the next morning.

PPLI Nov 2025: −1.7% by the close, −8.7% at 10:00.

§1 Timing and samples

One beam enters a prism and two leave, one oxblood and one slate

the reportordinary

The report’s own share of it

Option prices cover more than the report

An expiry a week out also carries a week of ordinary movement. Comparing two expiries that both contain the report separates the two, and the report's share is the priced move.

PPLI May 2026: 7.4% from the options → 5.9% for the report, 63% of that expiry's risk.

§3 Splitting the move

Five expiries on a line; an oxblood beam strikes only the first, while a faint bracket spans all five

the one that movedwhat 30 days average

The collapse in volatility

We measure the expiry that moved

A 30-day average mixes the expiry holding the report with expiries it never reaches, so it reads shallower than what you held. We read the expiry that holds the report, the day before and the day after, at both strikes.

PPLI Nov 2026: −40% new strike.

§4 The collapse, three ways

PPLI · IV crush at the report’s expiry vs the 30-day average

One expiry contains the report. The 30-day figure is an average that also covers expiries the report never reaches. Every column below leans the same way, so the gap shows on each report, not only in the median.

PPLI · the expected move, where it closed, where it stood at 10:00

Each row is one report: the band is what the options priced, the mark is where the stock closed, and the bar runs to where it stood at 10:00 the next morning. On 2 of 12 reports with both, the close and 10:00 pointed opposite ways.

Where the 10:00 number is missing, the cell stays blank instead of borrowing the close, and the data-quality grid below says why. How far apart the two run differs from company to company; this window measures it for PPLI.

PPLI · the term structure the day before each report

The split reads the report out of the gap between the two lines. The small figure under each date is how many trading sessions the expiry holding the report had left. A shorter one carries the same report over fewer days, so it reads higher without the report being priced any bigger.

Drawn for the last twelve reports, like the other figures on this page. It is history; the current curve is on the board.

next-morning price from quotes5 of 15open_crush_restruck_quoted: The option at the 10:00 strike did not trade on both sides between 09:55 and 10:05, so the next-morning volatility was read from the midpoint of its quoted bid and ask over the same ten minutes.

held to expiry1 of 15cover_mark_settled: The straddle that was sold expired at one of these closes, so its price there is its settlement value: the distance from the stock to the strike. That exit pays no bid/ask spread, and it ignores the cost of being assigned stock on the in-the-money leg.; Lands inShort-straddle P&Lon the ticker page, not this one
an anchor was refused1 of 15open_crush_anchor_unreliable: At least one observation behind the 10:00 crush was rejected: a price below intrinsic, a crossed quote, or a solve that did not converge. The number here was measured from the anchors that did invert, and is scored normally.; Lands inOpen
gapped past the wings1 of 15open_crush_gap_otm: The stock gapped far enough that the contract sold at T−1 is no longer near the money at the cover, so the as-sold crush there is partly a move along the smile rather than a collapse in volatility.; Lands inOpen
