CFO, COO Of TEAM Sold 50% Of Their Shares

Investors may wish to note that the CFO, COO of TEAM plc, Matthew Moore, recently netted UK£67k from selling stock, receiving an average price of UK£0.11. It might not be a huge sale, but it did reduce their holding size 50%, hardly encouraging.

TEAM Insider Transactions Over The Last Year

In fact, the recent sale by Matthew Moore was the biggest sale of TEAM shares made by an insider individual in the last twelve months, according to our records. That means that an insider was selling shares at slightly below the current price (UK£0.12). 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. However, while insider selling is sometimes discouraging, it's only a weak signal. This single sale was just 50% of Matthew Moore's stake.

While this is a strong but not outstanding level of insider ownership, it's enough to indicate some alignment between management and smaller shareholders.
