$UAA: Options Traders Hint at Big Moves. What Do They Know? Plus, a Past Investor Opportunity!
Court: D. Maryland
Case: 1:17-cv-00388
Key points:- High implied volatility in
UAA options. - Analysts hold a "Neutral" view.
- A significant past settlement for UAA investors.
Investors in Under Armour (UAA) should pay close attention to the options market. The Jul 18, 2025 $20.00 Put recently showed some of the highest implied volatility (IV) among all equity options today. High IV signals that traders are expecting a significant price movement in the underlying stock, either up or down.
While options traders are pricing in big moves, the fundamental picture is more nuanced. Under Armour currently holds a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) in the Textile - Apparel Industry. Over the last 60 days, five analysts have actually increased their estimates for the current quarter, with the Zacks Consensus Estimate moving from break-even to three cents per share.
This divergence between implied volatility and analyst sentiment suggests that something big could be developing, making UAA a stock to watch closely.
Even as UAA's near-term volatility captures attention, it's vital for investors to be aware of past events that have led to significant financial recovery. Under Armour previously agreed to a massive $434 million settlement with investors.
- The Allegation: In 2017, Under Armour was accused of misleading investors about its ability to maintain over 20% revenue increases. These claims were later challenged following weaker-than-expected earnings reports and executive resignations.
- The Result: On January 31, 2017, UAA's stock price dropped a sharp 26% after these announcements.
- Your Eligibility: If you were an investor affected by these events (e.g., purchased UA or UAA shares between September 16, 2015, and November 1, 2019, depending on the class period), you could be entitled to a share of this $434 million fund.
