Private Equity Reportedly Kicking the Tyres of Questas Private equity firms are understood to be the players most interested in buying the $400 million industrial business Questas Group Pty Ltd, with the sale process likely to be wrapped up by Christmas. DataRoom reported last month that the business was on offer by owner Allegro Funds (Allegro Funds Pty Ltd) through investment bank UBS, with expectations it might sell for about $400 million. Some industry experts believed that one of the most likely trade buyers to take a look would be Genuine Parts Company (NYSE:GPC) (GPC), which operates in similar areas to Questas. Another is the company Applied Industrial Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:AIT). But the understanding is that mid-sized private equity firms will dominate the competition. Declared Dividend • Oct 27

New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: €4.4m This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Recent Insider Transactions • Aug 17
