Harris (NYSE: HRS), an electronics and defense company, is recently trading at $60.22 in pre-open trading, above its close of $54.41 Thursday.

The Wall Street Journal reported HRS has begun exploring its strategic options, and could eventually choose to sell itself, according to people familiar with the matter.

HRS overall option implied volatility of 30 is below its 26-week average of 34 according to Track Data, suggesting decreasing price risk.
