The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Sow Good

In the last twelve months, the biggest single purchase by an insider was when insider Benno Fischer bought US$1.1m worth of shares at a price of US$7.25 per share. Although we like to see insider buying, we note that this large purchase was at significantly below the recent price of US$20.02. Because it occurred at a lower valuation, it doesn't tell us much about whether insiders might find today's price attractive.

I like to see this level of insider ownership, because it increases the chances that management are thinking about the best interests of shareholders.
