WHY THIS SIGNAL?
Score anatomy
Each bar shows the contribution to the current score; the weights and formula stay unchanged.
Cluster+10.5 / 35
How many distinct insiders bought in the cluster
Purchase size+15.6 / 25
Purchase value relative to company size and liquidity
Role+13.0 / 20
The seniority and relevance of participating insiders
Recency+8.7 / 10
How recently the purchases occurred
Conviction+5.3 / 10
How clearly buying stands out from other activity
What is holding the score back?
- ⚠ Buyer breadth is moderate · fewer than 4 distinct filers
- ⚠ Insider role contributes less on the current role scale
- ⚠ Buying conviction is reduced by concurrent selling
- ✓ Recent activity · latest purchase 2026-10-15
The role contribution uses the inverted role input of the current European model.
Buying concentration
63%
Largest buyer：Karl Schäcke · 105k EUR
Gross qualified purchase transaction-line value：167k EUR
The headline € total is net buying for the screen; this module uses gross qualified purchase transaction-line values in the filing currency, so the amounts can differ. The current 15-day buyer-breadth input counts distinct buyers; value concentration is disclosed separately here.
This is a ranking under the current European screening rules—not a probability of gain, return forecast, or buy recommendation.

Insider vs stock price
2 purchase day(s), 4 purchase line(s) in the 180-day window. 1 sale day(s), 2 sale line(s).
Daily close (EUR)Day with an insider purchaseDay with an insider sale
Markers sit on the closing price of the transaction day. They show when insiders traded, not the price they paid or received. "Since" compares that day's close with the last close shown; it is what happened at this company, not a forecast.
If you had followed the purchase
Each row starts on the first close on or after the day a purchase was made public, the earliest a reader could have acted, and ends on the last close shown above.
| Made public | Insiders | In this stock, now | In the median peer stock, now | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-09-15 | 1 | 946 −5.4% | too few peers | — |
| 2026-10-15 | 1 | 1,008 +0.8% | too few peers | — |
Close to close, before costs, taxes, dividends and currency moves. The peer is the median of the other stocks on the same exchange for which this site holds prices (0 here), not an index. This is what happened, not a forecast: across all purchases on this site the typical gap is close to zero.
Insider timeline
2 insiders bought in the last 180 days, each once and more than 15 days apart. 1 of the buyers also disclosed a sale in the window.
Tap an item for what it means.
●A purchase: the bigger the dot, the more was bought
Each dot is one insider's purchases on one day. The dot's area follows the amount: the largest purchase here gets the largest dot. Hold the pointer over a dot to see the date and the amount.
×A sale
A cross is one insider's sales on one day. People sell to pay tax, to cash in share awards or to hold less of one company, so a sale says less than a purchase does. When someone bought and sold on the same day, the cross sits beside the dot. The totals are under “Purchases against sales” below.
Blue line: this share's price, +8.4% over these six months
The closing price of each day, from 48.90 on 2026-04-21 to 53.00 on 2026-10-16. The line has no scale; read it for high and low: a dot on a low stretch was bought cheaply, a dot on a high stretch was not.
Dashed line: the typical stock on the same exchange, −7.2%
Taken from the 37 other stocks on the same exchange that this site holds prices for. Each is measured from the first day of the window, and every day the middle one is drawn. It starts where the blue line starts, so the gap between the two is the difference: this share +8.4%, the typical one −7.2%, 15.6 points ahead. It is not an index and not a comparison within one industry.

Purchases against sales
Purchases67%4 line(s) · 2 insider(s)
Sales33%2 line(s) · 1 insider(s)
Shares of the NUMBER of transactions in the 180-day window: a reported value is missing for 3 line(s), or the lines are in more than one currency, so values cannot be added up. Sales include disposals for tax, at option exercise or under a pre-set plan, which say little about an insider's view. The split describes what was disclosed; it is not a signal.

BULL VS BEAR
Two readings of this buying
The same filings, read two ways. Each line is a fact stored for this company with the number behind it, and appears only when that number crosses a fixed threshold. Neither side is a forecast and no winner is declared.
All bull and bear lists, and what followed each line in the past →
Where the evidence comes from
Independent evidence does not object: the purchases themselves carry bull lines (bought in the last two weeks); share price and trading were checked and none crosses a bear threshold. No data is held for: short sellers, company results, company actions.
- The insider purchases themselvesBullbought in the last two weeks Bearinsiders also sold4 checked, under the threshold · 3 missing
- Share price and trading2 checked, under the threshold
- Short sellers1 missing
- Company results2 missing
- Company actionsno data held
Bull case · the buying is informative
- The latest purchase is 2 days old (2026-10-15). The buying is current, not left over from an earlier quarter.
Bear case · discount it
- Insiders also sold €127k in the same 180 days, 89% of the amount bought.
Evidence still missing
- No buyer here has 5 or more completed earlier purchases on record, so there is no track record to weigh.
- The company's market value is not captured, so the purchases cannot be stated as a share of the business or of its trading volume.
- No earnings, margin or cash-flow figures are captured for this company. The latest annual and interim reports are where to check whether the business is improving or deteriorating.
- The short-position register for this company's market is not captured here, so whether professional investors are positioned against the buying is not known.
- European notifications have no field saying whether a purchase was pre-arranged; there is no counterpart to the US 10b5-1 box. None of the 4 purchase lines mentions a plan, but a bare “Acquisition” does not rule one out.
- The filings give the size of each trade, not what the buyer already held. Whether a purchase added 1% to a personal stake or doubled it is not known.
Checked and under the threshold: 6, 1 close to it
- BearThe largest buyer accounts for 63% of the value bought. Counted for the bear side from 80%. close to the threshold
- BullAt most 1 insider bought within any 15 days. Counted for the bull side from 3.
- Bear0 of 2 buyers filed as a person closely associated with a manager. Counted for the bear side from half.
- EitherNet purchases of €15k in 180 days. Bull from €1.0M, bear when all purchases total under €25k.
- BearThe share price changed +10% over six months (three months −9.9%, one month −13%) and stands 34% below its 52-week high. Counted for the bear side from a fall of 20%.
- BearOver three months the share price changed −9.9% and the median of 462 Industrials companies changed −0.32%: behind by 10 points. Counted for the bear side from 20 points behind.

Insider profile outcomes
Historical performance following insider filings. The company role is translated below each name while preserving the original title.
- Excess return = stock return − ATX return over the same period.
- Hit rate = completed events with positive excess return ÷ total completed events.
- Price coverage = valid point-in-time prices ÷ events mature enough for that period.
- Returns start on the first shared trading session on or after publication.
- Small-sample rule: n<5 is shown for transparency and is not scored.
Events are disclosure-level observations; related disclosures published on the same date may share a return path and may not be statistically independent. This research enrichment does not affect the insider score or ranking.

Market cap is the share count implied by the report's profit and earnings per share (the year's average), multiplied by the latest close; shares issued or bought back since are not counted. It does not affect the insider score or rank.
Disclosed net short positions
This country's register of net short positions was not read for this build. That says nothing about whether short positions exist.

Filing evidence
These are underlying national-feed records from the 365-day window ending on the saved ranking snapshot. The score uses only the latest 180 days; older qualifying equity purchases remain visible for audit but do not enter the current score. The original filer, role, transaction classification, instrument, price, volume, value and source fields are retained. The first three rows are shown; remaining records can be unfolded for audit. Other transaction types are retained but excluded from the score.
