Have UniFirst Insiders Been Selling Stock?
Have UniFirst Insiders Been Selling Stock?
We wouldn't blame UniFirst Corporation (NYSE:UNF) shareholders if they were a little worried about the fact that Cecelia Levenstein, a company insider, recently netted about US$1.5m selling shares at an average price of US$153. That's a big disposal, and it decreased their holding size by 17%, which is notable but not too bad.
如果你持有UniFirst Corporation (NYSE:UNF) 股票,Cecelia Levenstein最近出售了價值約1.5美元的股票,平均價爲153美元,你可能會有點擔心。這是一筆巨大的交易,將其持有規模減少了17%,值得注意但還不算太糟糕。
The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At UniFirst
UniFirst的內部交易最近12個月的情況值得關注
Notably, that recent sale by insider Cecelia Levenstein was not the only time they sold UniFirst shares this year. They previously made an even bigger sale of -US$4.0m worth of shares at a price of US$159 per share. That means that even when the share price was below the current price of US$176, an insider wanted to cash in some shares. 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. We note that the biggest single sale was only 25% of Cecelia Levenstein's holding.
請注意,內部人士Cecelia Levenstein最近出售的UniFirst股票不是他們今年唯一出售該公司股票的情況。 他們此前以159美元的價格出售了價值4,000萬美元的股票。這意味着即使該股價低於當前價格176美元,內部人士仍想兌現一些股票。一般來說,當內部人士以低於當前價格出售股票時,我們認爲這是令人沮喪的,因爲這表明他們對較低估值感到滿意。但是,雖然內部人士的售賣有時讓人失望,但這只是一個弱信號。我們注意到,最大的單一銷售只佔Cecelia Levenstein持股的25%。

Insider Ownership
內部人員持股情況
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. UniFirst insiders own 10% of the company, currently worth about US$291m based on the recent share price. Most shareholders would be happy to see this sort of insider ownership, since it suggests that management incentives are well aligned with other shareholders.
查看公司內部人員持有的總股份可以幫助您了解他們是否與普通股東利益保持良好的契合。如果內部人員擁有公司的大量股票,則這是一個好跡象。UniFirst內部人員擁有公司的10%,根據最近股價估值約爲2.91億美元。多數股東會很高興看到這種內部所有權,因爲這表明管理層的激勵與其他股東的利益是一致的。
