INSIDER SIGNAL
Insider activity score：35.4 / 100
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.
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 were checked and none crosses a bear threshold. No data is held for: company results, company actions.

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 8,759 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 4,719 earlier disclosures like this, the median 60-session excess return was −2.8%, within 1 percentage point of all comparable disclosures (−3.3%).
- All purchases in the window total €9,749: a small commitment in absolute terms.
- The latest purchase was 172 days ago (2026-04-30). A reporting period has passed since, so what the buyers knew then may already be public.
Evidence still missing
- 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.
Checked and under the threshold: 4
- BearNo insider sale is recorded in the same 180 days.
- BearThe share price changed +84% over six months (three months +117%, one month +90%) and stands 26% below its 52-week high. Counted for the bear side from a fall of 20%.
- BearOver three months the share price changed +117% and the median of 331 Technology companies changed −2.2%: ahead by 119 points. Counted for the bear side from 20 points behind.
- BearThe register of FCA shows no published net short position in this company.

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.
Why there is no buy signal
No qualifying open-market purchase disclosure is available in the current research window. This is not a sell signal.
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 − FTSE 100 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.
