The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Echo International Holdings Group
Over the last year, we can see that the biggest insider purchase was by insider Yik Tung Siu for HK$10m worth of shares, at about HK$0.15 per share. We do like to see buying, but this purchase was made at well below the current price of HK$0.20. While it does suggest insiders consider the stock undervalued at lower prices, this transaction doesn't tell us much about what they think of current prices.
Happily, we note that in the last year insiders paid HK$43m for 272.15m shares. But they sold 5.60m shares for HK$5.7m.

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. I reckon it's a good sign if insiders own a significant number of shares in the company. Echo International Holdings Group insiders own 55% of the company, currently worth about HK$65m based on the recent share price. This kind of significant ownership by insiders does generally increase the chance that the company is run in the interest of all shareholders.
So What Do The Echo International Holdings Group Insider Transactions Indicate?
The recent insider purchases are heartening. We also take confidence from the longer term picture of insider transactions. But on the other hand, the company made a loss during the last year, which makes us a little cautious. When combined with notable insider ownership, these factors suggest Echo International Holdings Group insiders are well aligned, and quite possibly think the share price is too low. That's what I like to see! While we like knowing what's going on with the insider's ownership and transactions, we make sure to also consider what risks are facing a stock before making any investment decision. When we did our research, we found 4 warning signs for Echo International Holdings Group (3 are concerning!) that we believe deserve your full attention.
