Options Update: June 2019

I write monthly options update articles to summarize options trades and to keep track of options income. The updates serve as a status report on open options and potential obligations.

My monthly target for options income is $1,750 and I'm happy to report that June's total exceeded that target. However, I'm still a little behind the pace needed to collect $21,000 in options income in 2019.

This month I'm reporting on now fewer than three assignments, plus a couple of expirations and several income-generating trades.

Recap


Through the end of May 2019, I collected options income totaling $7,122 in 2019 at an average of about $1,424 per month. This was still short of my monthly target average of $1,750. 

Below is a snapshot of June's trades, which included three assignments, two expirations, a few trades in which I rolled forward options, and several trades in which I sold options for income.


Assigned Options


When the holder of an option exercises the option, it is said to be assigned.

#2552018-11-01:-3×GPS 21 Jun 2019 $27.00 P $ 1,004.00 ( $ -1.47 )
#2692018-12-06:-5×MAIN 21 Jun 2019 $40.00 C $    250.00 ( $ -0.18 )
#2712018-12-06:-2×O 21 Jun 2019 $70.00 C $    188.00 ( $  0.00 )

I had to buy 300 shares of The Gap (GPS) when the June $27 put options I'd sold were exercised early. On the day of the assignment, GPS closed at $18.79 per share. Unfortunately, this means that I've been handed an unrealized loss of $2,463—somewhat softened by the $1,003 in options income collected for selling the shares.

GPS reported poor Q1-2019 results, reflecting soft top-line growth and comparable sales as well as lower margins. Management lowered its earnings outlook for fiscal 2019, noting that the trade war with China may impact results going forward.

Getting assigned under such circumstances is never pleasant, but that's part and parcel of put selling. I'll monitor the stock closely in case the outlook deteriorates. If that happens, I'll have to accept the loss and sell the shares. Meanwhile, I'll collect the dividends ($291 annually) and sell covered calls to boost my income.

Main Street Capital (MAIN) is trading near its 52-week high and the stock's current yield is a bit below its 5-year average.

I decided to "allow" the June $40 covered calls to be assigned (rather than trying to roll them forward) and, consequently, sold 500 of my 750 MAIN shares. I'm happy with my investment in MAIN, which generated gains totaling $3,645 or 20% on my original investment (15% annualized).

As a result of this trade, DivGro's projected annual dividend income (PADI) will take a bit of a knock! I'll be collecting $1,200 less as a result. On the other hand, my remaining 250 shares will have a reduced average cost basis of $22.96 and deliver dividends totaling at least $600 per year. The average yield on cost (YoC) is 10.5%!

I also decided to sell 200 of my 250 Realty Income (O) shares by "allowing" the June $70 covered calls to expire and be assigned. This investment turned out even better, as I generated total gains of $3,187 or 28% on my original investment, which is 31% annualized.

DivGro's PADI will be reduced by $720 as a result of this trade and my remaining shares will have an average cost basis of $47.36 per share and an average YoC of 5.74%.

O is trading near its 52-week high and the stock's current yield is quite a bit lower than its 5-year average, an indication that the stock is trading at a premium to fair value. Notice also the higher than average current P/AFFO ratio.

Expired Options


In June, the following option expired:

#3282019-03-25:-1×VLO 21 Jun 2019 $95.00 C $ 114.00 ( $ -0.79 )
#2682018-12-06:-1×LOW 21 Jun 2019 $120.00 C $   67.00 ( $ -0.79 )

On 21 June, Valero Energy (VLO) closed at $81.91 per share, well below the $95 strike price of the June call I'd sold. So the covered call expired and I no longer have the obligation to sell 100 VLO shares.

Also On 21 June, Lowe's (LOW) closed at $100.84 per share, well below the $120 strike price of the June call I'd sold. So the covered call expired and I no longer have the obligation to sell 100 LOW shares.

I secured options income totaling $179 with this trade.

Closed Options


When an out of the money option goes further out of the money, you can close the option early and secure most of the options income. I didn't close any options early this month.

Rolled Options


Rolling forward options means buying back an option and selling another option with a later expiration date. You can do this to avoid options assignment for in the money options, or to collect more options income for out of the money options.

I rolled forward the following options this month:

#3592019-06-28:-1×TSM 17 Jan 2020 $45.00 C $ 105.00 ( $   -0.30 )
#2822018-12-06:-1×TSM 19 Jul 2019 $45.00 C $   60.00 ( $   -5.63 )→ #359
#3582019-06-28:-2×ABBV 15 Nov 2019 $80.00 C $ 303.00 ( $   -0.85 )
#3302019-03-27:-2×ABBV 16 Aug 2019 $90.00 C $ 264.00 ( $ -22.68 )→ #358

On 28 June, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM) closed at $39.17 per share, meaning the July 2019, $45 covered calls I'd sold were out of the money. I decided to roll forward the options to January 2020. In the process, I secured about $54 in options income and I collected an additional %105 for selling the January 2020, $45 covered call.

AbbVie (ABBV) closed at $72,72 on 28 June, so the $90, August 2019, calls I'd sold on ABBV were deep out of the money. I decided to roll forward the options to November 2019 and simultaneously to lower the strike price to $80. Doing so secured about $241 in options income and I collected another $302 for selling the November 2019, $80 covered calls.

Covered Calls


Selling covered calls is a way to collect extra income on stocks you already own.

I sold the following covered call in June:

#3572019-06-21:-3×GPS 17 Jan 2020 $20.00 C $ 345.00 ( $ -1.49 )


#357 : 2019-06-21: Sold to Open 3 Contracts of Option GPS Jan 17 2020 20.00 C

I own 300 shares of The Gap (GPS) at a cost basis of $27.00 per share. I'm willing to sell these shares for $20.00 on or before 17 January:

Open Date :  2019-06-21

----------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------  -----------
Commission if Exercised : $0.00
Cost Basis if Exercised : $25.85Gain if Exercised : -22.62%

This covered call yields 4.24%, or 7.38% on an annualized basis. The yield on cost of my GPS position is 3.59%, so I'm boosting dividend income by a factor of 2.05. If the options are exercised, I'll sell 300 shares of GPS at a reduced cost basis of $25.85 per share, for a capital loss of 22.62%.


For covered calls, I think an achievable goal is to earn double the dividend yield. The GPS covered call trade meets this goal!

New Put Contracts


Selling put options allows me to set the price I'm willing to pay for a stock I want to buy. In effect, I get paid while waiting for the share price to drop!

I sold the following put contracts in June:

For selling puts, I like to see a dividend boost factor of 5.00 or more unless I can buy shares at a discount of at least 10%. Except for the CL put options trade, all of the put options trades achieve the discount goal.

Options Expiring Soon


Below I'm listing options expiring in the next two months. On expiration day, in the money options will result in options assignment, which I'd like to avoid in some cases, if possible.

July 2019:

Two options are in the money and a few are out of the money with small margins of safety, so I'll have to monitor these carefully as the options expiration dates approach.

Concluding Remarks


My options goal in 2019 is to collect a total of $21,000 at an average of $1,750 per month.

Difference:

$    2,136


After collecting $2,498 in options income in June, my year to date total is $9,619. This averages just more than $1,603 per month, which is still short of the desired monthly average of $1,750.

While DivGro's focus will continue to be dividend growth investing, options trading certainly is contributing positively to my portfolio's performance.

In 37 months of options trading, I've collected options income totaling $52,412. Over the same period, my dividend income totals $57,056. So about 48% of DivGro's total income over this period comes from options trading!

The exciting thing about collecting options income is that I immediately can deploy that income to buy more dividend growth stocks and so boost DivGro's ability to generate dividend income.
