Interparfums Inc (IPAR) — wheel strategy suitability
Where IPAR sits as an underlying for selling cash-secured puts and covered calls, and what its own price history says about the risk of being assigned into a falling stock. Snapshot of 3 October 2026.
Interparfums Inc (IPAR) scores 79 on the Wheel score, which puts it in the preferred band for selling cash-secured puts and covered calls.
The score is carried by its margin stability (99/100) and held back by valuation (33/100). Steady margins are exactly what you want under a short put: the earnings behind the stock do not swing much from quarter to quarter. It is not cheap, so assignment would leave you holding a fully priced stock.
It has monthly options only, which costs it a small liquidity haircut. Workable, but every roll commits you for a month.
Over the last 3.0 years it had 0 days with a fall of 10% or more (0.0 a year), a deepest drawdown of -46.4%, and a worst single session of -9.6%. That is better than the median screened name (0.67 gap-downs a year, -44.9% typical worst drawdown).
Realised volatility runs about 32% annualised. That sits in the range where premium is worth collecting without the stock being wild.
Entry timing currently reads as a dip within an uptrend — historically the better half of the cycle to sell puts into.
