While 'out-of-the-money' option contracts written on Republic Services are typically viewed as the more aggressive, there are potential upsides to purchasing these types of options contracts. For one, the cost to buy an 'Out of the Money' option is lower than the cost to buy an 'In the Money' option. This cost-benefit is due to the fact that at the time of the purchase, 'Out of the Money' contracts have no intrinsic value.

The market value of Republic Services is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of Republic that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of Republic Services' value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is Republic Services' true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Because Republic Services' market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect Republic Services' underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.

Investors typically determine if Republic Services is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, Republic Services' price is the amount at which it trades on the open market and represents the number that a seller and buyer find agreeable to each party.
