WHY THIS SIGNAL?

Score anatomy

Each bar shows the contribution to the current score; the weights and formula stay unchanged.

Cluster+21.0 / 35

How many distinct insiders bought in the cluster

Purchase size+18.0 / 25

Purchase value relative to company size and liquidity

Role+20.0 / 20

The seniority and relevance of participating insiders

Recency+0.8 / 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.

Gross qualified purchase transaction-line value:693k NOK

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

2 insiders bought within 8 days, 4 Sep to 11 Sep: 1 CEO / chair, 1 Role not classified. The share closed at 161.40 on the first of those days and at 158.40 most recently (−1.9%). That week 188 companies across Europe disclosed insider purchases, an ordinary week (11 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.

▮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 4 Sep – 11 Sep, with 2 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, −30.2% over these six months

The closing price of each day, from 226.80 on 2026-04-21 to 158.40 on 2026-10-09. 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, −7.7%

Taken from the 100 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 −30.2%, the typical one −7.7%, 22.5 points behind. 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: 188 companies, number 11 of the last 26 weeks. If that week was a peak anyway, buying together is less special than it looks.

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 results, company actions.

  • Share price and tradingBearprice down over six months1 checked, under the threshold
  • Short sellersBearpublished short positions
  • Company results2 missing
  • Company actions1 missing

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

  • Buying at this level is normal here: 2 insiders bought in the previous 180 days and 2 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%).
  • Share price and tradingThe share price is down 27% over six months (three months −6.5%, one month +0.64%) and stands 35% 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 2.66% of the share capital across 4 named holders: other professional investors are positioned the opposite way. On 2026-10-02 it was 2.03%: up 0.63 points since.

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 next scheduled results are on 2026-11-12. 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 2 purchase lines mentions a plan, but a bare “Kjøp” 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, 2 close to it
  • BullAt most 2 insiders bought within any 15 days. Counted for the bull side from 3. close to the threshold
  • BearThe largest buyer accounts for 71% of the value bought. Counted for the bear side from 80%. close to the threshold
  • Bear0 of 2 buyers filed as a person closely associated with a manager. Counted for the bear side from half.
  • EitherNet purchases of €65k in 180 days. Bull from €1.0M, bear when all purchases total under €25k.
  • BearNo insider sale is recorded in the same 180 days.
  • EitherThe latest purchase is 36 days old. Bull up to 14 days, bear from 90.
  • BearOver three months the share price changed −6.5% and the median of 330 Technology companies changed −2.4%: behind by 4 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.

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.

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.
