This morning 1,700 of the Arcus Biosciences, Inc. (Symbol: RCUS) September 20 ’24 / October 18 ’24 12.5 calendar calls spread traded for $0.50.  Looking at the open interest in both strikes the trader was most likely closing out their September position and rolling it to the October expiration. Earnings are not expected to be reported until the week of November 5th which is after both expirations. The trader may be waiting on a news event and rolling their position to capitalize on it. Both calls are deep in the money and at the time of the trade RCUS stock was trading at $16.76.

RCUS is currently trading for $17.12. The 52-week high is $20.48 and the 52-week low is $12.95.
