Acuity Brands Senior VP & General Counsel Barry Goldman Sells 39% Of Holding
Acuity Brands Senior VP & General Counsel Barry Goldman Sells 39% Of Holding
We wouldn't blame Acuity Brands, Inc. (NYSE:AYI) shareholders if they were a little worried about the fact that Barry Goldman, the Senior VP & General Counsel recently netted about US$907k selling shares at an average price of US$305. That's a big disposal, and it decreased their holding size by 39%, which is notable but not too bad.
如果Acuity Brands, Inc.(紐交所:AYI)的股東對高級副總裁兼總法律顧問Barry Goldman最近以每股305美元的平均價值出售股票,淨賺約90.7萬美元這一事實感到有些擔憂,我們也不會責怪他們。這是一筆大手交易,使他們的持股規模減少了39%,這雖然顯著但還不算太糟糕。
The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Acuity Brands
最近12個月Acuity Brands內部交易情況
In the last twelve months, the biggest single sale by an insider was when the Senior VP & Chief Human Resources Officer, Dianne Mills, sold US$1.4m worth of shares at a price of US$226 per share. That means that even when the share price was below the current price of US$302, 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. 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. This single sale was 73% of Dianne Mills's stake.
在過去的十二個月裏,內部人士中最大的一筆交易是高級副總裁兼首席人力資源官Dianne Mills以每股226美元的價格出售了價值140萬美元的股票。這意味着即使股價低於目前每股302美元,內部人士還是想套現一些股票。通常情況下,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的估值感到滿意。雖然內部人士的拋售不是積極信號,但我們無法確定這是否意味着內部人認爲股票是被充分定價的,所以這只是一個微弱的信號。這筆交易佔了Dianne Mills持股的73%。

Does Acuity Brands Boast High Insider Ownership?
Acuity Brands是否擁有高內部持股?
Many investors like to check how much of a company is owned by insiders. We usually like to see fairly high levels of insider ownership. Insiders own 0.2% of Acuity Brands shares, worth about US$19m. This level of insider ownership is good but just short of being particularly stand-out. It certainly does suggest a reasonable degree of alignment.
許多投資者喜歡查看一家公司有多少股份是內部持有的。我們通常希望看到相當高水平的內部持有。內部持有者持有Acuity Brands股份的0.2%,價值約1900萬美元。這種內部持有水平很好,但還不足以特別突出。它確實表明了相當合理的一致性程度。
So What Does This Data Suggest About Acuity Brands Insiders?
那麼這些數據對Acuity Brands的內部持有者有什麼暗示?
An insider sold Acuity Brands shares recently, but they didn't buy any. And our longer term analysis of insider transactions didn't bring confidence, either. But since Acuity Brands is profitable and growing, we're not too worried by this. Insiders own shares, but we're still pretty cautious, given the history of sales. We'd practice some caution before buying! So these insider transactions can help us build a thesis about the stock, but it's also worthwhile knowing the risks facing this company. For example - Acuity Brands has 1 warning sign we think you should be aware of.
