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+17.0 / 25
Purchase value relative to company size and liquidity
Role+15.0 / 20
The seniority and relevance of participating insiders
Recency+0.0 / 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 · c-suite involved
The role contribution uses the inverted role input of the current European model.
Buying concentration
Not worked out: the scoring window holds no qualifying purchase filing, or the purchases are reported in more than one currency.
This is a ranking under the current European screening rules—not a probability of gain, return forecast, or buy recommendation.

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
Independent evidence does not object: the purchases themselves carry bull lines (senior executive buying); share price and trading, short sellers, company results were checked and none crosses a bear threshold. 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
- 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 €37k are <0.01% of the company's market value (€1.5bn): a visible sum, a small one against the business.
- The latest purchase was 180 days ago (2026-04-20). A reporting period has passed since, so what the buyers knew then may already be public.
Evidence still missing
- Only one reading of profitability is held (profit margin 6.9%). Whether earnings and cash flow are rising or falling needs the last two reports side by side.
Checked and under the threshold: 5
- BearNo insider sale is recorded in the same 180 days.
- BearThe share price changed +4.8% over six months (three months +3.5%, one month −11%) and stands 18% below its 52-week high. Counted for the bear side from a fall of 20%.
- BearOver three months the share price changed +3.5% and the median of 462 Industrials companies changed −0.32%: ahead by 4 points. Counted for the bear side from 20 points behind.
- BearThe register of AMF shows no published net short position in this company. Positions under 0.5% are never published, so this does not show that nobody is short.
- BearProfit margin on the latest captured figures is 6.9%. Counted for the bear side when negative.
Both columns arrange stored facts only. They do not change the insider score or the ranking and are not investment advice.

Why there is no buy signal
Filings exist, but they are sales, derivative or option instruments, option exercises, grants, tax withholding, gifts, or transfers rather than qualifying equity purchases, so they are excluded from scoring.
The underlying disclosures remain available below for audit.

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 − CAC 40 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.

Disclosed net short positions
The AMF register, read 18 Oct 2026, publishes no net short position of 0.5% or more in this issuer. Positions below 0.5% are never published, so this is not evidence that nobody is short.
Short-position disclosures are external context; they do not affect the insider score, ranking, or filing eligibility.

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.
