The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Brembo

The Executive VP Matteo Tiraboschi made the biggest insider purchase in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for €1.0m worth of shares at a price of €8.42 each. That implies that an insider found the current price of €9.18 per share to be enticing. While their view may have changed since the purchase was made, this does at least suggest they have had confidence in the company's future. While we always like to see insider buying, it's less meaningful if the purchases were made at much lower prices, as the opportunity they saw may have passed. The good news for Brembo share holders is that insiders were buying at near the current price.
