The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Conduit Holdings

In fact, the recent purchase by Executive Director & CEO Trevor Carvey was not their only acquisition of Conduit Holdings shares this year. They previously made an even bigger purchase of UK£150k worth of shares at a price of UK£3.61 per share. We do like to see buying, but this purchase was made at well below the current price of UK£5.05. While it does suggest insiders consider the stock undervalued at lower prices, this transaction doesn't tell us much about what they think of current prices.

Does Conduit Holdings Boast High Insider Ownership?

For a common shareholder, it is worth checking how many shares are held by company insiders. A high insider ownership often makes company leadership more mindful of shareholder interests. From our data, it seems that Conduit Holdings insiders own 0.8% of the company, worth about UK£6.9m. Overall, this level of ownership isn't that impressive, but it's certainly better than nothing!

So What Do The Conduit Holdings Insider Transactions Indicate?

The recent insider purchase is heartening. And the longer term insider transactions also give us confidence.

So these insider transactions can help us build a thesis about the stock, but it's also worthwhile knowing the risks facing this company.
