MOVE Logistics Group Insider Transactions Over The Last Year

Over the last year, we can see that the biggest insider sale was by the insider, Nerida Ramsay, for NZ$1.1m worth of shares, at about NZ$0.82 per share. While insider selling is a negative, to us, it is more negative if the shares are sold at a lower price. It's of some comfort that this sale was conducted at a price well above the current share price, which is NZ$0.53. So it may not shed much light on insider confidence at current levels. Nerida Ramsay was the only individual insider to sell over the last year.

Insider Ownership Of MOVE Logistics Group

Many investors like to check how much of a company is owned by insiders. A high insider ownership often makes company leadership more mindful of shareholder interests. MOVE Logistics Group insiders own about NZ$25m worth of shares. That equates to 37% of the company. This level of insider ownership is good but just short of being particularly stand-out. It certainly does suggest a reasonable degree of alignment.

So What Do The MOVE Logistics Group Insider Transactions Indicate?

The recent insider purchase is heartening. However, the longer term transactions are not so encouraging. The more recent transactions are a positive, but MOVE Logistics Group insiders haven't shown the sustained enthusiasm that we look for, although they do own a decent number of shares, overall.
