TMT Investments Insider Transactions Over The Last Year
The Executive Director Alexander Selegenev made the biggest insider purchase in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for US$100k worth of shares at a price of US$2.75 each. That implies that an insider found the current price of US$3.04 per share to be enticing. That means they have been optimistic about the company in the past, though they may have changed their mind. While we always like to see insider buying, it's less meaningful if the purchases were made at much lower prices, as the opportunity they saw may have passed. In this case we're pleased to report that the insider bought shares at close to current prices. Alexander Selegenev was the only individual insider to buy during the last year.

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. Usually, the higher the insider ownership, the more likely it is that insiders will be incentivised to build the company for the long term. It's great to see that TMT Investments insiders own 84% of the company, worth about US$80m. I like to see this level of insider ownership, because it increases the chances that management are thinking about the best interests of shareholders.
