The options market is pricing an expected move of ±9.85% (±$4.70) for UVE (UNIVERSAL INSURANCE HOLDINGS INC) earnings on Thursday, October 22, 2026 (after close). That is the mid price of the $50.00 at-the-money straddle expiring Friday, November 20, 2026, with UVE at $47.73 as of Oct 21, 2026 3:59 PM ET (CBOE delayed data). The nearest expiration is 29 days after the report, so this straddle also prices non-earnings movement and likely overstates the pure earnings move. Note: these option quotes are thin (wide or one-sided), so treat this figure as approximate.
