What Does The Lack Of Institutional Ownership Tell Us About Archidply Industries?

Small companies that are not very actively traded often lack institutional investors, but it’s less common to see large companies without them.

There are many reasons why a company might not have any institutions on the share registry. It may be hard for institutions to buy large amounts of shares, if liquidity (the amount of shares traded each day) is low. If the company has not needed to raise capital, institutions might lack the opportunity to build a position. It is also possible that fund managers don’t own the stock because they aren’t convinced it will perform well. Archidply Industries’s earnings and revenue track record (below) may not be compelling to institutional investors — or they simply might not have looked at the business closely.

Insider Ownership Of Archidply Industries

While the precise definition of an insider can be subjective, almost everyone considers board members to be insiders. The company management answer to the board; and the latter should represent the interests of shareholders. Notably, sometimes top-level managers are on the board, themselves.

Most consider insider ownership a positive because it can indicate the board is well aligned with other shareholders. However, on some occasions too much power is concentrated within this group.

It seems insiders own a significant proportion of Archidply Industries Limited. Insiders own ₹136m worth of shares in the ₹939m company. I would say this shows alignment with shareholders, but it is worth noting that the company is still quite small; some insiders may have founded the business.
