Mobileye Global Inc (MBLY) Options Trading Offers Available Strategies

New options for August 2025 have been launched, enticing investors with potential profit avenues.

Investors in Mobileye Global Inc (Symbol: MBLY) are seeing fresh options begin trading this week, specifically for the August 2025 expiration date. A significant factor influencing the price an option buyer is willing to pay is time value. With 235 days until expiration, these newly trading contracts may provide sellers of puts or calls a chance to secure higher premiums than those available from contracts expiring soon. At Stock Options Channel, our YieldBoost algorithm has examined the MBLY options chain and found a put and a call contract of particular interest.

The put contract set at a $17.00 strike price has a current bid of $3.60. If an investor sells-to-open this put, they are agreeing to buy the stock at $17.00 but will collect the premium, making their effective purchase price $13.40 (before broker commissions). For someone looking to buy shares of MBLY, this could be a more appealing option than purchasing at the current price of $17.73 per share.

Since the $17.00 strike translates to roughly a 4% discount from the current trading price, it’s possible that the put contract may expire worthless. Current analytical data indicates a 66% likelihood of this happening. Stock Options Channel will monitor these odds over time, providing updates on our website. If the contract does expire worthless, the premium would yield a 21.18% return on the cash commitment, or 32.90% when annualized — a figure we term as YieldBoost.

Shifting focus to the calls side, the call contract at the $19.00 strike price bids at $4.10. An investor purchasing MBLY shares at $17.73 and then selling-to-open this call would commit to sell the stock at $19.00. Including the premium collected, this strategy could lead to a total return of 30.29% if the stock is called away at the August 2025 expiration (excluding dividends and before broker commissions). Investors may want to analyze the trailing twelve-month trading history for Mobileye, as well as the company’s fundamentals, to fully assess this option.

Notably, the $19.00 strike represents about a 7% premium to the current trading price, indicating it is out-of-the-money by this percentage. There is a chance that the covered call contract could also expire worthless, allowing the investor to keep both their shares and the premium earned. Current data show a 40% likelihood of this scenario. Stock Options Channel will track these odds over time, maintaining updated statistics on the website. If the covered call does expire worthless, the premium would add a 23.12% extra return, or 35.92% annualized, again termed as YieldBoost.

The implied volatility for the put contract stands at 79%, while for the call contract, it’s at 81%. Calculating over the past 250 trading days and the current stock price of $17.73, the actual volatility is estimated at 72%. For additional options contract ideas, visit StockOptionsChannel.com.
