Hello ? They can legally be insider traders. That gives them a major advantage. They knew that the settlement talks were going nowhere. They could have bought back all their puts during the spike before the talks failed and then turned around and sold puts now at the worst part of the downturn.
Further, I am pretty sure the income from Puts was never counted as being part of earnings. So expenses due to buying back shares will not be counted either. It's a stock buyback and they will use their $20 BB of reserves to buy back
