Insiders At Federal Signal Sold US$3.4m In Stock, Alluding To Potential Weakness
Insiders At Federal Signal Sold US$3.4m In Stock, Alluding To Potential Weakness
Many Federal Signal Corporation (NYSE:FSS) insiders ditched their stock over the past year, which may be of interest to the company's shareholders. 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, shareholders should take a deeper look if several insiders are selling stock over a specific time period.
在過去的一年中,許多聯邦信號公司(紐交所:FSS)內部人士拋售了股票,這可能對該公司的股東有所關注。在分析內部交易時,通常更重要的是知道內部人士是否買入而不是賣出,因爲後者會發送一個模棱兩可的信息。但是,如果有幾名內部人員在特定時間段內拋售股票,股東們應該深入了解。
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.
雖然在長期投資中,內部交易並不是最重要的事情,但我們認爲關注內部人士的行動是非常合理的。
The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Federal Signal
聯邦信號公司過去12個月內的內部交易
The Independent Non-Executive Chairman, Dennis Martin, made the biggest insider sale in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for US$3.1m worth of shares at a price of US$61.47 each. So it's clear an insider wanted to take some cash off the table, even below the current price of US$83.46. We generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they did so below the current price, because it implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. 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. It is worth noting that this sale was only 8.7% of Dennis Martin's holding.
在過去12個月中,獨立非執行主席丹尼斯馬丁進行了最大規模的內部交易。這單交易價值310萬美元,每股61.47美元。因此,很明顯有一名內部人士想要賣出一些股票,甚至低於當前的83.46美元的價格。我們普遍認爲,如果內部人士一直在賣出股票,尤其是如果他們這樣做的價格低於當前價格,那麼這是一個負面信號,因爲這意味着他們認爲更低價格是合理的。雖然內部人士的拋售並不是一個積極的跡象,但我們無法確定這是否意味着內部人士認爲股票已經到了充分價值,因此這只是一個微弱的跡象。值得注意的是,這次賣出只佔丹尼斯馬丁持有股票的8.7%。

Insider Ownership Of Federal Signal
聯邦信號公司內部所有權
I like to look at how many shares insiders own in a company, to help inform my view of how aligned they are with insiders. I reckon it's a good sign if insiders own a significant number of shares in the company. Federal Signal insiders own 2.4% of the company, currently worth about US$124m based on the recent share price. I like to see this level of insider ownership, because it increases the chances that management are thinking about the best interests of shareholders.
我喜歡查看內部人士在公司中擁有多少股份,以幫助我了解他們與內部人士的利益是否一致。如果內部人士擁有公司中的一定數量的股份,則我認爲這是一個好跡象。聯邦信號的內部人士擁有該公司的2.4%,根據最近的股價,目前價值約1.24億美元。我喜歡看到這種水平的內部所有權,因爲它增加了管理層考慮股東最大利益的機會。
