This Insider Has Just Sold Shares In The Lovesac Company (NASDAQ:LOVE)
Anyone interested in The Lovesac Company (NASDAQ:LOVE) should probably be aware that the Founder, Shawn Nelson, recently divested US$161k worth of shares in the company, at an average price of US$26.85 each. On the bright side, that sale was only 2.5% of their holding, so we doubt it's very meaningful, on its own.

Lovesac Insider Transactions Over The Last Year
The Chairman of the Board Andrew Heyer made the biggest insider purchase in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for US$256k worth of shares at a price of US$12.99 each. Even though the purchase was made at a significantly lower price than the recent price (US$24.60), we still think insider buying is a positive. Because the shares were purchased at a lower price, this particular buy doesn't tell us much about how insiders feel about the current share price.
Happily, we note that in the last year insiders paid US$598k for 43.78k shares. But insiders sold 6.00k shares worth US$161k. In the last twelve months there was more buying than selling by Lovesac insiders. You can see a visual depiction of insider transactions (by companies and individuals) over the last 12 months, below.

Insider Ownership of Lovesac
Looking at the total insider shareholdings in a company can help to inform your view of whether they are well aligned with common shareholders. Usually, the higher the insider ownership, the more likely it is that insiders will be incentivised to build the company for the long term. Lovesac insiders own about US$15m worth of shares. That equates to 4.1% of the company. We've certainly seen higher levels of insider ownership elsewhere, but these holdings are enough to suggest alignment between insiders and the other shareholders.
