Insiders were net buyers of Minieye Technology Co., Ltd’s (HKG:2431 ) stock during the past year. That is, insiders bought more stock than they sold.
Although we don’t think shareholders should simply follow insider transactions, logic dictates you should pay some attention to whether insiders are buying or selling shares.
The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Minieye Technology
The insider Guoqing Liu made the biggest insider purchase in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for HK$2.4m worth of shares at a price of HK$15.88 each. So it’s clear an insider wanted to buy, at around the current price, which is HK$16.82. While their view may have changed since the purchase was made, this does at least suggest they have had confidence in the company’s future. While we always like to see insider buying, it’s less meaningful if the purchases were made at much lower prices, as the opportunity they saw may have passed. In this case we’re pleased to report that the insider bought shares at close to current prices. The only individual insider to buy over the last year was Guoqing Liu.

Does Minieye Technology Boast High Insider Ownership?
Looking at the total insider shareholdings in a company can help to inform your view of whether they are well aligned with common shareholders. I reckon it’s a good sign if insiders own a significant number of shares in the company. Minieye Technology insiders own about HK$1.5b worth of shares (which is 21% of the company). This kind of significant ownership by insiders does generally increase the chance that the company is run in the interest of all shareholders.
So What Do The Minieye Technology Insider Transactions Indicate?
The recent insider purchase is heartening. And the longer term insider transactions also give us confidence. But on the other hand, the company made a loss during the last year, which makes us a little cautious. When combined with notable insider ownership, these factors suggest Minieye Technology insiders are well aligned, and quite possibly think the share price is too low. Nice! So these insider transactions can help us build a thesis about the stock, but it’s also worthwhile knowing the risks facing this company. Be aware that Minieye Technology is showing 2 warning signs in our investment analysis, and 1 of those is potentially serious…
