The fact that multiple Rapid7, Inc. (NASDAQ:RPD) insiders offloaded a considerable amount of shares over the past year could have raised some eyebrows amongst investors. When analyzing insider transactions, it is usually more valuable to know whether insiders are buying versus knowing if they are selling, as the latter sends an ambiguous message. However, if numerous insiders are selling, shareholders should investigate more.

在過去的一年中,多位Rapid7, Inc.(納斯達克股票代碼:RPD)內部人士拋售了大量股票,這一事實可能會引起投資者的關注。在分析內幕交易時,了解內部人士是否在買入通常比知道他們是否在賣出更有價值,因爲後者發出的信息模棱兩可。但是,如果有許多內部人士出售,股東應該進行更多調查。

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.

儘管我們認爲股東不應簡單地關注內幕交易,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 Rapid7

Rapid7 過去12個月的內幕交易

The President & COO, Andrew Burton, made the biggest insider sale in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for US$2.0m worth of shares at a price of US$52.89 each. That means that an insider was selling shares at slightly below the current price (US$54.44). 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. However, while insider selling is sometimes discouraging, it's only a weak signal. It is worth noting that this sale was only 32% of Andrew Burton's holding.

總裁兼首席運營官安德魯·伯頓進行了過去12個月中最大規模的內幕出售。這筆單筆交易是價值200萬美元的股票,每股價格爲52.89美元。這意味着一位內部人士正在以略低於當前價格(54.44美元)的價格出售股票。當內部人士以低於當前價格的價格出售時,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。但是,儘管內幕銷售有時令人沮喪,但這只是一個微弱的信號。值得注意的是,此次出售僅佔安德魯·伯頓持股的32%。

Does Rapid7 Boast High Insider Ownership?

Rapid7 是否擁有很高的內部所有權?

Another way to test the alignment between the leaders of a company and other shareholders is to look at how many shares they own. We usually like to see fairly high levels of insider ownership. Insiders own 1.6% of Rapid7 shares, worth about US$56m. While this is a strong but not outstanding level of insider ownership, it's enough to indicate some alignment between management and smaller shareholders.
