Chief Financial Officer Of Cadre Holdings Sold 28% Of Their Shares
Some Cadre Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:CDRE) shareholders may be a little concerned to see that the Chief Financial Officer, Blaine Browers, recently sold a substantial US$1.0m worth of stock at a price of US$34.06 per share. That sale reduced their total holding by 28% which is hardly insignificant, but far from the worst we've seen.

The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Cadre Holdings
The Executive Chairman & CEO, Warren Kanders, made the biggest insider sale in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for US$50m worth of shares at a price of US$35.00 each. That means that an insider was selling shares at around the current price of US$33.50. We generally don't like to see insider selling, but the lower the sale price, the more it concerns us. In this case, the big sale took place at around the current price, so it's not too bad (but it's still not a positive).

Insider Ownership
Many investors like to check how much of a company is owned by insiders. We usually like to see fairly high levels of insider ownership. Cadre Holdings insiders own 36% of the company, currently worth about US$483m based on the recent share price. I like to see this level of insider ownership, because it increases the chances that management are thinking about the best interests of shareholders.
