Kratos Defense & Security Solutions Insiders Sell US$2.5m Of Stock, Possibly Signalling Caution
The fact that multiple Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ:KTOS) insiders offloaded a considerable amount of shares over the past year could have raised some eyebrows amongst investors. Knowing whether insiders are buying is usually more helpful when evaluating insider transactions, as insider selling can have various explanations. However, if numerous insiders are selling, shareholders should investigate more.

Although we don't think shareholders should simply follow insider transactions, we do think it is perfectly logical to keep tabs on what insiders are doing.

The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Kratos Defense & Security Solutions
Kratos Defense & Security Solutions 的最近 12 个月的内幕交易
In the last twelve months, the biggest single sale by an insider was when the President of Microwave Electronics Division, Yonah Adelman, sold US$1.1m worth of shares at a price of US$16.50 per share. So it's clear an insider wanted to take some cash off the table, even below the current price of US$18.49. As a general rule we consider it to be discouraging when insiders are selling below the current price, because it suggests they were happy with a lower valuation. However, while insider selling is sometimes discouraging, it's only a weak signal. This single sale was just 50% of Yonah Adelman's stake.
在过去的十二个月中,一位内部人士最大的一次出售是微波电子事业部总裁约纳·阿德尔曼(Yonah Adelman)以每股16.50美元的价格出售了价值110万美元的股票。因此,很明显,一位内部人士想从桌上提取一些现金,甚至低于当前的18.49美元价格。通常,当内部人士以低于当前价格的价格出售时,我们认为这令人沮丧,因为这表明他们对较低的估值感到满意。但是,尽管内幕销售有时令人沮丧,但这只是一个微弱的信号。此次出售仅占约纳·阿德尔曼股份的50%。
