Simply Wall St ·  11/17 09:29

We note that the iHeartMedia, Inc. (NASDAQ:IHRT) Lead Independent Director, James Rasulo, recently sold US$96k worth of stock for US$2.40 per share. It wasn't a huge sale, but it did reduce their holding by 17%. This does not instill confidence.

iHeartMedia Insider Transactions Over The Last Year

In fact, the recent sale by James Rasulo was the biggest sale of iHeartMedia shares made by an insider individual in the last twelve months, according to our records. That means that an insider was selling shares at around the current price of US$2.21. While insider selling is a negative, to us, it is more negative if the shares are sold at a lower price. In this case, the big sale took place at around the current price, so it's not too bad (but it's still not a positive).

Insider Ownership

For a common shareholder, it is worth checking how many shares are held by company insiders. Usually, the higher the insider ownership, the more likely it is that insiders will be incentivised to build the company for the long term. From our data, it seems that iHeartMedia insiders own 2.7% of the company, worth about US$8.9m. Whilst better than nothing, we're not overly impressed by these holdings.

What Might The Insider Transactions At iHeartMedia Tell Us?

An insider sold stock recently, but they haven't been buying. And there weren't any purchases to give us comfort, over the last year. When you consider that most companies have higher levels of insider ownership, we're a little wary. So we're not rushing to buy, to say the least. So while it's helpful to know what insiders are doing in terms of buying or selling, it's also helpful to know the risks that a particular company is facing.
