CM.com Insider Transactions Over The Last Year

Over the last year, we can see that the biggest insider sale was by the Co-Founder, Jeroen van Glabbeek, for €270k worth of shares, at about €6.80 per share. That means that an insider was selling shares at slightly below the current price (€6.94). 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. Please do note, however, that sellers may have a variety of reasons for selling, so we don't know for sure what they think of the stock price. It is worth noting that this sale was only 0.5% of Jeroen van Glabbeek's holding.

Insider Ownership Of CM.com

Another way to test the alignment between the leaders of a company and other shareholders is to look at how many shares they own. I reckon it's a good sign if insiders own a significant number of shares in the company. It's great to see that CM.com insiders own 54% of the company, worth about €109m. Most shareholders would be happy to see this sort of insider ownership, since it suggests that management incentives are well aligned with other shareholders.
