We've lost count of how many times insiders have accumulated shares in a company that goes on to improve markedly. Unfortunately,bible verses about pleading the blood of jesus there are also plenty of examples of share prices declining precipitously after insiders have sold shares. So before you buy or sell

Entra ASA

(

OB:ENTRA

), you may well want to know whether insiders have been buying or selling.

What Is Insider Buying?

It's quite normal to see company insiders, such as board members, trading in company stock, from time to time. However, such insiders must disclose their trading activities, and not trade on inside information.

We would never suggest that investors should base their decisions solely on what the directors of a company have been doing. But it is perfectly logical to keep tabs on what insiders are doing. For example, a Columbia University

study

found that 'insiders are more likely to engage in open market purchases of their own company’s stock when the firm is about to reveal new agreements with customers and suppliers'.

The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Entra

In the last twelve months, the biggest single purchase by an insider was when Chief Financial Officer Anders Olstad bought kr998k worth of shares at a price of kr133 per share. So it's clear an insider wanted to buy, at around the current price, which is kr145. That means they have been optimistic about the company in the past, though they may have changed their mind. If someone buys shares at well below current prices, it's a good sign on balance, but keep in mind they may no longer see value. The good news for Entra share holders is that an insider was buying at near the current price. Anders Olstad was the only individual insider to buy shares in the last twelve months.

Does Entra Boast High Insider Ownership?

Looking at the total insider shareholdings in a company can help to inform your view of whether they are well aligned with common shareholders. I reckon it's a good sign if insiders own a significant number of shares in the company. Based on our data, Entra insiders have about 0.1% of the stock, worth approximately kr31m. We do note, however, it is possible insiders have an indirect interest through a private company or other corporate structure. We consider this fairly low insider ownership.
