WHY THIS SIGNAL?
Score anatomy
Each bar shows the contribution to the current score; the weights and formula stay unchanged.
How many distinct insiders bought in the cluster
Purchase value relative to company size and liquidity
The seniority and relevance of participating insiders
How recently the purchases occurred
How clearly buying stands out from other activity
What is holding the score back?
- ⚠ Buyer breadth is moderate · fewer than 4 distinct filers
- ⚠ Purchase activity is becoming less recent
- ✓ Strong insider role · c-suite involved
The role contribution uses the inverted role input of the current European model.
Buying concentration
The filings do not name the buyer, so who bought how much cannot be worked out.
This is a ranking under the current European screening rules—not a probability of gain, return forecast, or buy recommendation.

Insider vs stock price
4 purchase day(s), 8 purchase line(s) in the 180-day window. 1 sale day(s), 1 sale line(s).
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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-05-07 | 1 | 1,066 +6.6% | 983 −1.7% | +83 +8.3 pts |
| 2026-06-01 | 1 | 975 −2.5% | 992 −0.8% | −17 −1.7 pts |
| 2026-08-27 | 1 | 982 −1.8% | 970 −3.0% | +12 +1.2 pts |
| 2026-08-28 | 1 | 970 −3.0% | 970 −3.0% | 0 +0.0 pts |
3 of 4 disclosure day(s) ended ahead of the median peer stock.
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 (91 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
One insider bought, 4 times, the latest (28 Aug). The share closed at 94.32 that day and at 91.48 most recently (−3.0%). 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, +2.4% over these six months
The closing price of each day, from 89.36 on 2026-04-21 to 91.48 on 2026-10-07. 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, −0.9%
Taken from the 89 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 +2.4%, the typical one −0.9%, 3.3 points ahead. It is not an index and not a comparison within one industry.
▂Grey bars: companies across Europe disclosing purchases each week
A taller bar is a week in which more companies disclosed insider purchases.
Who traded
| Insider | Role | Purchases | Sales | Bought | First purchase | Share price since | Earlier purchases |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unknown insider | Executive | 4 | 1 | 1.2M CHF | 2026-05-07 | +6.6% | fewer than 5 completed |
Purchases against sales
Shares of the reported value of insider transactions in the 180-day window. 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.
Why this score? · Model details
Priority = 100 × Σ(fixed weight × 0–1 rule-based input)
| Factor | Weight | This company input | Point contribution |
|---|---|---|---|
| 15-day buyer breadth (count) | 35% | 0.496; source unavailable, filled with a cohort-neutral value | 17.4 |
| Qualified-buy size | 25% | 0.904 | 22.6 |
| Role informativeness (inverted) | 20% | 0.250 | 5.0 |
| Recency | 10% | 0.031 | 0.3 |
| Buy/sell conviction | 10% | 0.909 | 9.1 |
This is a heuristic ordering under the current rules, not a calibrated return forecast. It explains why candidates rank differently; the public-filing evidence and data limits are shown below.
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.
Since 2026-10-13: no longer on the bull side: large purchases; new on the bear side: small purchases. All bull and bear lists, and what followed each line in the past →
Where the evidence comes from
The two kinds of evidence disagree: the purchases themselves carry bull lines (senior executive buying), while short sellers argue against (published short positions). No data is held for: company actions.

Bull case · the buying is informative
- The buyers include a senior executive, who sees more of the business than most filers. This site's score gives little or no credit for that: in its backtests purchases by senior executives did no better than other insiders' purchases.Record: after 8,797 earlier disclosures like this, the median 60-session excess return was −3.1%, within 1 percentage point of all comparable disclosures (−3.2%).
Bear case · discount it
- Net purchases of €1.1M are <0.01% of the company's market value (€16.1bn): a visible sum, a small one against the business.
- Short sellersDisclosed net short positions total 3.74% of the share capital: other professional investors are positioned the opposite way. On 2026-10-02 it was 3.85%: down 0.11 points since.
Evidence still missing
- This register does not name the filer, so the 8 purchase lines may come from one person or from several. Breadth of buying cannot be judged.
- Only one reading of profitability is held (profit margin 14%). Whether earnings and cash flow are rising or falling needs the last two reports side by side.
- The next scheduled results are on 2026-10-28. They are the first hard test of either reading.
- 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 8 purchase lines mentions a plan, but a bare “Purchase” 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: 5
- BearInsiders sold €126k in the same 180 days, 10% of the amount bought. Counted for the bear side from 25%.
- EitherThe latest purchase is 50 days old. Bull up to 14 days, bear from 90.
- BearThe share price changed +9.3% over six months (three months −13%, one month −2.2%). Counted for the bear side from a fall of 20%.
- BearOver three months the share price changed −13% and the median of 271 Healthcare companies changed −6.3%: behind by 7 points. Counted for the bear side from 20 points behind.
- BearProfit margin on the latest captured figures is 14%. Counted for the bear side when negative.
