Wingstop Insiders Sell US$5.5m Of Stock, Possibly Signalling Caution
Wingstop Insiders Sell US$5.5m Of Stock, Possibly Signalling Caution
Over the past year, many Wingstop Inc. (NASDAQ:WING) insiders sold a significant stake in the company which may have piqued investors' interest. Knowing whether insiders are buying is usually more helpful when evaluating insider transactions, as insider selling can have various explanations. However, when multiple insiders sell stock over a specific duration, shareholders should take notice as that could possibly be a red flag.
在过去的一年中,许多Wingstop Inc.(纳斯达克股票代码:WING)内部人士出售了该公司的大量股份,这可能激起了投资者的兴趣。在评估内幕交易时,了解内部人士是否在买入通常更有帮助,因为内幕卖出可以有多种解释。但是,当多个内部人士在特定期限内出售股票时,股东应注意,因为这可能是一个危险信号。
Although we don't think shareholders should simply follow insider transactions, we would consider it foolish to ignore insider transactions altogether.
尽管我们认为股东不应干脆关注内幕交易,但我们认为完全忽视内幕交易是愚蠢的。
Wingstop Insider Transactions Over The Last Year
去年的Wingstop内幕交易
Notably, that recent sale by Michael Skipworth is the biggest insider sale of Wingstop shares that we've seen in the last year. So what is clear is that an insider saw fit to sell at around the current price of US$339. While insider selling is a negative, to us, it is more negative if the shares are sold at a lower price. Given that the sale took place at around current prices, it makes us a little cautious but is hardly a major concern.
值得注意的是,迈克尔·斯基普沃思最近的出售是我们去年看到的最大规模的Wingstop股票内幕出售。因此,显而易见的是,一位内部人士认为以目前的339美元左右的价格卖出是合适的。尽管内幕抛售是负面的,但对我们来说,如果以较低的价格出售股票,则负面影响更大。鉴于此次出售是以当前价格进行的,这使我们有点谨慎,但并不是一个主要问题。
Insiders in Wingstop didn't buy any shares in the last year. You can see a visual depiction of insider transactions (by companies and individuals) over the last 12 months, below.

Wingstop Insiders Are Selling The Stock
Wingstop 内部人士正在出售该股票
The last quarter saw substantial insider selling of Wingstop shares. Specifically, insiders ditched US$2.9m worth of shares in that time, and we didn't record any purchases whatsoever. This may suggest that some insiders think that the shares are not cheap.
上个季度,Wingstop股票遭到大量内幕抛售。具体而言,内部人士在那段时间抛售了价值290万美元的股票,我们没有记录任何购买记录。这可能表明一些内部人士认为股票并不便宜。
Insider Ownership
内部所有权
Many investors like to check how much of a company is owned by insiders. I reckon it's a good sign if insiders own a significant number of shares in the company. Wingstop insiders own about US$30m worth of shares. That equates to 0.3% of the company. We've certainly seen higher levels of insider ownership elsewhere, but these holdings are enough to suggest alignment between insiders and the other shareholders.
许多投资者喜欢检查一家公司有多少股份由内部人士拥有。我认为,如果内部人士拥有该公司的大量股份,这是一个好兆头。Wingstop内部人士拥有价值约3000万美元的股票。这相当于该公司的0.3%。当然,我们在其他地方看到了更高的内部所有权水平,但这些持股足以表明内部人士与其他股东之间的一致性。
