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+13.4 / 25

Purchase value relative to company size and liquidity

Role+20.0 / 20

The seniority and relevance of participating insiders

Recency+0.7 / 10

How recently the purchases occurred

Conviction+10.0 / 10

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 · ceo/chair involved

The role contribution uses the inverted role input of the current European model.

Largest buyer:Frederik Uglebjerg · 30k DKK
Gross qualified purchase transaction-line value:30k DKK

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.

●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.

Blue line: this share's price, −22.5% over these six months

The closing price of each day, from 106.00 on 2026-04-21 to 82.20 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.

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, neither column has changed. 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 share price and trading argue against (price down over six months); short sellers argue against (published short positions). No data is held for: company actions.

  • The insider purchases themselvesBullsenior executive buying Bearone buyer only, small purchases4 checked, under the threshold · 3 missing
  • Share price and tradingBearprice down over six months1 checked, under the threshold
  • Short sellersBearpublished short positions
  • Company results1 checked, under the threshold · 1 missing
  • Company actionsno data held

Bull case · the buying is informative

  • The buyers include the CEO or chair, 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

  • Only one insider bought. A single purchase can reflect that person's own finances rather than a view on the company.Record: after 4,732 earlier disclosures like this, the median 60-session excess return was −2.7%, within 1 percentage point of all comparable disclosures (−3.3%).
  • Net purchases of €3,959 are <0.01% of the company's market value (€416.9M): a visible sum, a small one against the business.
  • Share price and tradingThe share price is down 22% over six months (three months −8.8%, one month −6.9%) and stands 38% below its 52-week high. Insiders have bought into a fall the market has not reversed.Record (nearest stored case: price 20% or more below its prior 52-week high): after 11,077 earlier disclosures like this, the median 60-session excess return was −3.2%, within 1 percentage point of all comparable disclosures (−2.6%).
  • Short sellersDisclosed net short positions total 3.73% of the share capital: other professional investors are positioned the opposite way.

Evidence still missing

  • No buyer here has 5 or more completed earlier purchases on record, so there is no track record to weigh.
  • Only one reading of profitability is held (profit margin 2.2%). Whether earnings and cash flow are rising or falling needs the last two reports side by side.
  • 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 2 purchase lines mentions a plan, but a bare “Purchase of shares” 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
  • Either1 insider bought in the last 180 days and 0 in the 180 days before. Bull when the number at least doubles and rises by two; bear when at least two bought before and no more buy now.
  • Bear0 of 1 buyer filed as a person closely associated with a manager. Counted for the bear side from half.
  • BearNo insider sale is recorded in the same 180 days.
  • EitherThe latest purchase is 39 days old. Bull up to 14 days, bear from 90.
  • BearOver three months the share price changed −8.8% and the median of 264 Consumer Cyclical companies changed −3.7%: behind by 5 points. Counted for the bear side from 20 points behind.
  • BearProfit margin on the latest captured figures is 2.2%. Counted for the bear side when negative.
