The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At G5 Entertainment

Over the last year, we can see that the biggest insider sale was by the Co-Founder & COO, Alexander Tabunov, for kr2.1m worth of shares, at about kr123 per share. That means that even when the share price was below the current price of kr338, an insider wanted to cash in some shares. We generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they did so below the current price, because it implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. Please do note, however, that sellers may have a variety of reasons for selling, so we don't know for sure what they think of the stock price. It is worth noting that this sale was only 43% of Alexander Tabunov's holding. Alexander Tabunov was the only individual insider to sell over the last year.

Does G5 Entertainment Boast High Insider Ownership?

Many investors like to check how much of a company is owned by insiders. I reckon it's a good sign if insiders own a significant number of shares in the company. G5 Entertainment insiders own about kr210m worth of shares. That equates to 7.0% of the company. While this is a strong but not outstanding level of insider ownership, it's enough to indicate some alignment between management and smaller shareholders.

So What Do The G5 Entertainment Insider Transactions Indicate?

It is good to see the recent insider purchase. On the other hand the transaction history, over the last year, isn't so positive. The high levels of insider ownership, and the recent buying by an insider suggests they are well aligned and optimistic. So while it's helpful to know what insiders are doing in terms of buying or selling, it's also helpful to know the risks that a particular company is facing.
