We’ve lost count of how many times insiders have accumulated shares in a company that goes on to improve markedly. On the other hand,i became the mother of the bloody male lead we’d be remiss not to mention that insider sales have been known to precede tough periods for a business. So shareholders might well want to know whether insiders have been buying or selling shares in
Ease2pay N.V.
(
AMS:EAS2P
).
What Is Insider Buying?
It is perfectly legal for company insiders, including board members, to buy and sell stock in a company. However, most countries require that the company discloses such transactions to the market.
We would never suggest that investors should base their decisions solely on what the directors of a company have been doing. But equally, we would consider it foolish to ignore insider transactions altogether. For example, a Harvard University
study
found that ‘insider purchases earn abnormal returns of more than 6% per year.’

Insider Ownership of Ease2pay
For a common shareholder, it is worth checking how many shares are held by company insiders. We usually like to see fairly high levels of insider ownership. Ease2pay insiders own 2.3% of the company, currently worth about €314k based on the recent share price. Most shareholders would be happy to see this sort of insider ownership, since it suggests that management incentives are well aligned with other shareholders.
So What Do The Ease2pay Insider Transactions Indicate?
It is good to see recent insider purchase. We also take confidence from the longer term picture of insider transactions. However, we note that the company didn’t make a profit over the last twelve months, which makes us cautious. On this analysis the only slight negative we see is the fairly low (overall) insider ownership; their transactions suggest that they are quite positive on Ease2pay stock.
