WHY THIS SIGNAL?

Score anatomy

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

Cluster+35.0 / 35

How many distinct insiders bought in the cluster

Purchase size+21.1 / 25

Purchase value relative to company size and liquidity

Role+20.0 / 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?

  • ⚠ Purchase activity is becoming less recent
  • ✓ Broad buyer cluster · 4+ distinct filers
  • ✓ Strong insider role · ceo/chair involved

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

5 insiders bought on the same day, 29 Apr: 3 Board member, 2 CEO / chair. 4 of them bought again later. 1 more bought afterwards. The share closed at 5.91 that day and at 6.76 most recently (+14.4%). That week 203 companies across Europe disclosed insider purchases, an ordinary week (8 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 29 Apr, with 5 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, −38.4% over these six months

The closing price of each day, from 10.98 on 2026-04-21 to 6.76 on 2026-10-14. 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, −9.1%

Taken from the 457 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 −38.4%, the typical one −9.1%, 29.3 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: 203 companies, number 8 of the last 26 weeks. If that week was a peak anyway, buying together is less special than it looks.

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: new on the bull side: large purchases; new on the bear side: loss-making; no longer on the bear side: price trails its sector. 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 (several insiders together, more buyers than usual here, large purchases, senior executive buying), while share price and trading argue against (price down over six months); company results argue against (loss-making).

  • Company actionsBearsubscription to new shares

Bull case · the buying is informative

  • 5 insiders bought on the same day (2026-04-29). 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%).
  • 6 insiders bought in the last 180 days against 3 in the 180 days before: more than this company's own recent norm.Record: after 3,134 earlier disclosures like this, the median 60-session excess return was −2.7%, within 1 percentage point of all comparable disclosures (−2.7%).
  • Net purchases of €435k equal 1.8% of the company's market value (€23.8M): large for the size of the business.
  • 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

  • Company actions7 of 13 purchase lines are subscriptions to newly issued shares (“Teckning”), bought from the company at an issue price and not in the market. Insiders often take part to support a financing.
  • 5 of 6 buyers are filed as persons closely associated with a manager (family or a holding vehicle), not the manager. This model weights such filers among the least informative.Record: after 1,554 earlier disclosures like this, the median 60-session excess return was −7.4%, 1.6 percentage points below all comparable disclosures (−5.8%).
  • Company resultsThe company is loss-making on the latest captured figures: profit margin −0.33%, return on equity −0.41%.
  • Share price and tradingThe share price is down 35% over six months (three months −19%, one month −7.1%) and stands 56% 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%).
  • The 15 earlier purchases by Anders Fransson trailed OMX Stockholm 30 by a median 5.3% over the following 60 trading days.

Evidence still missing

  • Only one reading of profitability is held (profit margin −0.33%). Whether earnings and cash flow are rising or falling needs the last two reports side by side.
  • 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, 2 close to it
  • EitherThe latest purchase is 79 days old. Bull up to 14 days, bear from 90. close to the threshold
  • BearOver three months the share price changed −19% and the median of 330 Technology companies changed −2.4%: behind by 16 points. Counted for the bear side from 20 points behind. close to the threshold
  • BearThe largest buyer accounts for 48% of the value bought. Counted for the bear side from 80%.
  • BearNo insider sale is recorded in the same 180 days.
  • BearThe register of Finansinspektionen 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.

Disclosed net short positions

The Finansinspektionen 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.

Insiders' buying price vs the latest close

Insiders paid 7.00 SEK a share on average (8 purchase lines, 5 buyers, 2026-07-23 – 2026-07-30). The close on 2026-10-14 was 3.4% below that price.

The latest purchase (2026-07-30) was at 7.00 SEK; the close was 3.4% below that price.

Prices paid are weighted by shares and taken from the filings; dividends are not counted. Not scored.
