The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Kazera Global

The CEO & Executive Director Dennis Edmonds made the biggest insider purchase in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for UK£40k worth of shares at a price of UK£0.008 each. That means that even when the share price was higher than UK£0.0047 (the recent price), an insider wanted to purchase shares. Their view may have changed since then, but at least it shows they felt optimistic at the time. To us, it's very important to consider the price insiders pay for shares. It is encouraging to see an insider paid above the current price for shares, as it suggests they saw value, even at higher levels. Dennis Edmonds was the only individual insider to buy during the last year.

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. From our data, it seems that Kazera Global insiders own 13% of the company, worth about UK£572k. However, it's possible that insiders might have an indirect interest through a more complex structure. We do generally prefer see higher levels of insider ownership.
