Simply Wall St · 3d ago

Investors may wish to note that the Non Executive Independent Chairman of Beforepay Group Limited, Brian Hartzer, recently netted AU$108k from selling stock, receiving an average price of AU$2.70. It wasn't a huge sale, but it did reduce their holding by 14%. This does not instill confidence.

The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Beforepay Group

In the last twelve months, the biggest single sale by an insider was when the Co-Founder, Fang Guo, sold AU$1.8m worth of shares at a price of AU$1.37 per share. That means that even when the share price was below the current price of AU$2.72, an insider wanted to cash in some shares. We generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they did so below the current price, because it implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. Please do note, however, that sellers may have a variety of reasons for selling, so we don't know for sure what they think of the stock price. It is worth noting that this sale was only 33% of Fang Guo's holding.

Insider Ownership

I like to look at how many shares insiders own in a company, to help inform my view of how aligned they are with insiders. A high insider ownership often makes company leadership more mindful of shareholder interests. It appears that Beforepay Group insiders own 12% of the company, worth about AU$16m. This level of insider ownership is good but just short of being particularly stand-out. It certainly does suggest a reasonable degree of alignment.
