Is it risky to sell options on Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. (WBD) right now?

Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. (WBD) currently scores 86 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (HIGH) over a 4-week expiry window. What pushes it there: an upcoming earnings report, 7 recent news items and 10 active legal filings, all landing inside the 4-week window. On TickerRisk's scale 70 and above is HIGH, so a known event is scheduled inside this window — selling premium on WBD here is a bet on that event rather than on time decay. The score measures scheduled event exposure, not which way the stock will move.

WBD shows an IV Rank of 36, near the low end of its one-year range — options are relatively cheap, which favours option buyers over sellers, with a current implied volatility of about 49%. IV Rank is the most useful figure for deciding whether to sell or buy premium on WBD.

WBD reports on 2026-08-06. Any expiry beyond that date carries the gap, and the implied volatility priced in beforehand typically collapses the morning after.
