The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Heijmans
The Chairman of Executive Board & CEO A. G. Hillen made the biggest insider purchase in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for €151k worth of shares at a price of €11.58 each. That means that even when the share price was higher than €10.38 (the recent price), an insider wanted to purchase shares. Their view may have changed since then, but at least it shows they felt optimistic at the time. To us, it's very important to consider the price insiders pay for shares. It is generally more encouraging if they paid above the current price, as it suggests they saw value, even at higher levels.
