What is holding the score back?

  • ⚠ Insider role contributes less on the current role scale
  • ⚠ Purchase activity is becoming less recent
  • ✓ Broad buyer cluster · 4+ distinct filers

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

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.

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.

Insider timeline

3 insiders bought within 5 days, 26 Jun to 30 Jun: 2 Board member, 1 Role not classified. The share closed at 57.60 on the first of those days and at 67.20 most recently (+16.7%). That week 185 companies across Europe disclosed insider purchases, an ordinary week (12 of the last 26).

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 filing that states no amount gets the smallest dot.

×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.

▮Purple band: several insiders bought within 15 days

The band marks the stretch with the most different buyers: at most 15 days long and at least two people. Here it is 26 Jun – 30 Jun, with 3 insiders. Only the strongest stretch is marked. Several people deciding the same thing is harder to explain by one person's private reasons, but insiders often buy together just after a closed period ends, so compare it with the grey weekly bars.

Blue line: this share's price, +15.7% over these six months

The closing price of each day, from 58.10 on 2026-04-21 to 67.20 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, −9.2%

Taken from the 104 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 +15.7%, the typical one −9.2%, 24.8 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. The purple bar is the week of the band above: 185 companies, number 12 of the last 26 weeks. If that week was a peak anyway, buying together is less special than it looks.

Purchases against sales

75%purchases
Purchases75%3 line(s) · 3 insider(s)
Sales25%1 line(s) · 1 insider(s)

Shares of the NUMBER of transactions in the 180-day window: a reported value is missing for 1 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.

Since 2026-10-13: no longer on the bull side: large purchases. 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 (several insiders together); share price and trading, short sellers were checked and none crosses a bear threshold. No data is held for: company results, company actions.

  • The insider purchases themselvesBullseveral insiders together Bearlatest purchase is old, usual level for this company3 checked, under the threshold · 4 missing

  • Company results2 missing

Bull case · the buying is informative

  • 3 insiders bought within 15 days (2026-06-26 to 2026-06-30). Several people reaching the same decision at the same time is hard to put down to one person's circumstances.Record: after 5,401 earlier disclosures like this, the median 60-session excess return was −3.3%, within 1 percentage point of all comparable disclosures (−3.3%).

Bear case · discount it

  • The latest purchase was 109 days ago (2026-06-30). A reporting period has passed since, so what the buyers knew then may already be public.
  • Buying at this level is normal here: 5 insiders bought in the previous 180 days and 3 in this one.Record: after 2,869 earlier disclosures like this, the median 60-session excess return was −2.6%, within 1 percentage point of all comparable disclosures (−2.7%).

Evidence still missing

  • The latest purchase (2026-06-30) falls within 30 days before the next scheduled results (2026-07-29), normally a closed period. Either the dealing was cleared as an exception or the results date is wrong; the filing and the financial calendar show which.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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 3 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: 7, 1 close to it
  • BearThe largest buyer accounts for 65% of the value bought. Counted for the bear side from 80%. close to the threshold
  • Bear0 of 3 buyers filed as a person closely associated with a manager. Counted for the bear side from half.
  • BearInsiders sold €154k in the same 180 days, 4.5% of the amount bought. Counted for the bear side from 25%.
  • BearThe share price changed +16% over six months (three months +13%, one month −0.59%). Counted for the bear side from a fall of 20%.
  • BearOver three months the share price changed +13% and the median of 120 Consumer Defensive companies changed −0.78%: ahead by 14 points. Counted for the bear side from 20 points behind.
  • BearPublished net short positions total 0.66% of the share capital across 1 named holder. Counted for the bear side from 2%. Unchanged since 2026-10-02.
  • BearAbout €2.1M of the stock changes hands on an average day. Counted for the bear side below €500k.

Insiders' buying price vs the latest close

Insiders paid 54.17 EUR a share on average (6 purchase lines, 5 buyers, 2025-11-06 – 2026-06-30). The close on 2026-10-16 was 24.1% above that price.

The latest purchase (2026-06-30) was at 56.10 EUR; the close was 19.8% above that price.

Prices paid are weighted by shares and taken from the filings; dividends are not counted. Not scored. 2 more purchase lines could not be compared with the share price and are left out.
