Insiders At Universal Health Services Sold US$4.2m In Stock, Alluding To Potential Weakness

Insiders At Universal Health Services Sold US$4.2m In Stock, Alluding To Potential Weakness

環球健康服務內部人士出售了420萬美元的股票,暗示了潛在的疲軟
Simply Wall St ·  2023/12/05 12:04

In the last year, many Universal Health Services, Inc. (NYSE:UHS) insiders sold a substantial stake in the company which may have sparked shareholders' attention. When evaluating insider transactions, knowing whether insiders are buying versus if they selling is usually more beneficial, as the latter can be open to many interpretations. However, if numerous insiders are selling, shareholders should investigate more.

去年,許多環球健康服務公司(紐約證券交易所代碼:UHS)內部人士出售了該公司的大量股份,這可能引起了股東的關注。在評估內幕交易時,了解內部人士是買入還是賣出通常更有利,因爲後者可能有多種解釋。但是,如果有許多內部人士出售,股東應該進行更多調查。

While insider transactions are not the most important thing when it comes to long-term investing, we do think it is perfectly logical to keep tabs on what insiders are doing.

儘管在長期投資方面,內幕交易並不是最重要的事情,但我們確實認爲密切關注內部人士的所作所爲是完全合乎邏輯的。

The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Universal Health Services

環球健康服務最近12個月的內幕交易

The Executive VP, Steve Filton, made the biggest insider sale in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for US$3.5m worth of shares at a price of US$139 each. That means that even when the share price was slightly below the current price of US$140, an insider wanted to cash in some shares. When an insider sells below the current price, it suggests that they considered that lower price to be fair. That makes us wonder what they think of the (higher) recent valuation. While insider selling is not a positive sign, we can't be sure if it does mean insiders think the shares are fully valued, so it's only a weak sign. We note that the biggest single sale was only 8.9% of Steve Filton's holding.

執行副總裁史蒂夫·菲爾頓進行了過去12個月來最大的一次內幕交易。該單筆交易以每股139美元的價格購買了價值350萬美元的股票。這意味着,即使股價略低於目前的140美元,內部人士也想兌現部分股票。當內部人士的賣出價格低於當前價格時,這表明他們認爲較低的價格是公平的。這讓我們想知道他們如何看待最近(更高的)估值。儘管內幕拋售不是一個積極的信號,但我們無法確定這是否意味着內部人士認爲股票已被充分估值,因此這只是一個弱勢信號。我們注意到,最大的單筆銷售額僅爲史蒂夫·菲爾頓持股的8.9%。

Does Universal Health Services Boast High Insider Ownership?

全民健康服務是否擁有很高的內部所有權?

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. It's great to see that Universal Health Services insiders own 13% of the company, worth about US$1.2b. I like to see this level of insider ownership, because it increases the chances that management are thinking about the best interests of shareholders.

查看公司的內部人持股總額可以幫助您了解他們是否與普通股股東保持良好關係。我認爲,如果內部人士擁有該公司的大量股份,那將是一個好兆頭。很高興看到環球健康服務內部人士擁有該公司13%的股份,價值約12億美元。我喜歡看到這種程度的內部所有權,因爲它增加了管理層考慮股東最大利益的機會。
