The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At First Financial Bancorp
First Financial Bancorp最近12个月的内幕交易
The Independent Director, William Barron, made the biggest insider sale in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for US$340k worth of shares at a price of US$23.94 each. That means that an insider was selling shares at around the current price of US$22.14. While we don't usually like to see insider selling, it's more concerning if the sales take place at a lower price. We note that this sale took place at around the current price, so it isn't a major concern, though it's hardly a good sign. Notably William Barron was also the biggest buyer, having purchased US$177k worth of shares.
独立董事威廉·巴伦进行了过去12个月中最大规模的内幕出售。这笔单笔交易是价值34万美元的股票,每股价格为23.94美元。这意味着一位内部人士正在以目前的22.14美元左右的价格出售股票。虽然我们通常不喜欢看到内幕销售,但更令人担忧的是是否以较低的价格进行销售。我们注意到,此次销售的价格约为当前价格,因此尽管这不是一个好兆头,但这并不是一个主要问题。值得注意的是,威廉·巴伦也是最大的买家,他购买了价值17.7万美元的股票。

Does First Financial Bancorp Boast High Insider Ownership?
First Financial Bancorp是否拥有很高的内部所有权?
For a common shareholder, it is worth checking how many shares are held by company insiders. Usually, the higher the insider ownership, the more likely it is that insiders will be incentivised to build the company for the long term. Insiders own 2.1% of First Financial Bancorp shares, worth about US$45m. This level of insider ownership is good but just short of being particularly stand-out. It certainly does suggest a reasonable degree of alignment.
对于普通股股东来说,值得检查一下公司内部人士持有多少股票。通常,内部人士的所有权越高,内部人士长期建立公司的可能性就越大。内部人士拥有第一金融银行2.1%的股份,价值约4500万美元。这种内部所有权水平不错,但还没有特别突出。这无疑表明了一定程度的一致性。
