Is it risky to sell options on KKR & Co. Inc. (KKR) right now?
Over a 4-week expiry window, KKR & Co. Inc. (KKR) scores 87 out of 100 for options catalyst risk (HIGH). The contributing signals are an upcoming earnings report, 8 recent news items and 10 active legal filings within the 4-week window. A HIGH reading (70+) means KKR has a dated event inside the window, so an option sold here carries gap risk that time decay alone will not pay for. The score ranks event exposure, not the likely direction of the move.
KKR shows an IV Rank of 23, 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 44%. IV Rank answers how KKR options are priced against their own history, which is the starting point for choosing between selling and buying premium.
KKR reports on 2026-11-09. Any expiry beyond that date carries the gap, and the implied volatility priced in beforehand typically collapses the morning after.
KKR & Co. Inc. (KKR) current implied volatility and IV Rank
KKR's IV Rank stands at 23 right now with implied volatility around 44%, alongside a TickerRisk options-risk score of 87/100. That's low — options are cheap relative to the past year, which favours premium-buying strategies such as long calls, long puts and debit spreads when you expect a move.

KKR & Co. Inc. (KKR) next earnings date — 2026-11-09
KKR & Co. Inc. (KKR) reports earnings on 2026-11-09 — about 19 days away, which falls inside a typical options expiry window. KKR's IV Rank is currently 23. Earnings are the single biggest scheduled catalyst for an overnight gap: implied volatility usually runs up into the report and collapses immediately after (the IV crush). Selling premium into the event captures that crush but exposes you to the gap; buying premium needs a move large enough to beat the elevated IV you paid.
