It is usually uneventful when a single insider buys stock. However, When quite a few insiders buy shares, as it happened in Alliance Entertainment Holding Corporation’s (NASDAQ:AENT) case, it’s fantastic news for shareholders.
Although we don’t think shareholders should simply follow insider transactions, logic dictates you should pay some attention to whether insiders are buying or selling shares.
In the last twelve months, the biggest single purchase by an insider was when CEO & Director Jeffrey Walker bought US$269k worth of shares at a price of US$3.93 per share. Although we like to see insider buying, we note that this large purchase was at significantly below the recent price of US$6.81. 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.
