From what we can see, insiders were net sellers in GoodRx Holdings, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:GDRX ) during the past 12 months. That is, insiders sold the stock in greater numbers than they purchased it.
While we would never suggest that investors should base their decisions solely on what the directors of a company have been doing, we would consider it foolish to ignore insider transactions altogether.
The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At GoodRx Holdings
Over the last year, we can see that the biggest insider sale was by the Chief Accounting Officer, Romin Nabiey, for US$535k worth of shares, at about US$6.77 per share. We generally don't like to see insider selling, but the lower the sale price, the more it concerns us. It's of some comfort that this sale was conducted at a price well above the current share price, which is US$4.65. So it may not shed much light on insider confidence at current levels. Romin Nabiey was the only individual insider to sell over the last year.

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.

While this is a strong but not outstanding level of insider ownership, it's enough to indicate some alignment between management and smaller shareholders.
