No insider purchase over the last 90 days. The latest, by Slater Scott S, was filed 09 Jan 2026.
Limoneira Co, classified in the Food & Beverage sector, is a listed company. Its insiders report their share dealings to SEC (Form 4). The last twelve months, up to 19 October 2026, brought 25 filings signed by 10 insiders.
On the market, 2 insiders bought (2 purchases totalling €233k) while 1 insider sold (5 sales totalling €57k). Purchases outweigh sales by €176k. A purchase on the market is a deliberate choice to commit personal money, which is why it draws more attention than a grant. Biggest ticket of the year: €178k, bought by Nolan Peter J and made public on 6 January 2026. On the buying side, the filings list 2 senior executives among the declarants.
With 25 filings in twelve months, the company is more active than the median of 22 filings across the 5,458 companies we follow on the same exchange. The full history, which starts in 2016, counts 14 purchases against 32 sales. The 10-K for the year ended 31 October 2025 shows 159.7 m USD of revenue and -16.0 m USD of net income and a dividend of 0.30 USD per share.
In the case of 1 purchase, another manager of the company was buying within the same 30 days. Such overlaps are known as a cluster signal: distinct people reaching the same decision at about the same time. The last purchase on record was published on 9 January 2026, which is 285 days ago. Between a trade and the moment it shows up on SEC (Form 4), the median delay is 3 days. US insiders must file a Form 4 within two business days of a trade. A sale on its own says little: insiders also sell to pay tax, fund a purchase or diversify.

Entry is the close on the day after publication, the first price a reader could act on. Prices in the listing currency. Past moves are not a forecast.
This score ranks the purchase within its own market. A position size is suggested only on the venues of the backtested strategy universe; elsewhere, signals stay on watch. Not investment advice.
Transparent value + quality ranking, distinct from the insider signal.

Limoneira Company (ticker: LMNR) is a U.S.-listed company traded on the Nasdaq market, headquartered in Santa Paula, California, United States. Founded in 1893, Limoneira is one of the long-established names in California agribusiness. The company describes itself as an agribusiness and real estate development company, focused on responsibly managing its land base, water resources, and related assets to maximize long-term stockholder value. Its public materials indicate a land portfolio of roughly 7,000 acres today, reflecting a strategic evolution in the asset base over time.
Limoneira’s core business is agricultural production centered on citrus, especially lemons, along with avocados. The company grows, packs, sells, and markets fresh lemons, and also participates in specialty citrus, wine grapes, and related agribusiness activities. Historically, Limoneira operated as a more integrated grower-marketer, but it has recently been reshaping its go-to-market model. In fiscal 2026, the company announced that its citrus sales and marketing would be merged into Sunkist Growers, a move designed to improve efficiency and deliver annual selling and marketing cost savings. This is an important strategic shift because it changes the economics and seasonality of lemon sales while reducing internal commercialization overhead.
From a competitive standpoint, Limoneira benefits from a deep operating history in California agriculture, a recognized brand in lemons, and ownership of land and water assets that are strategically difficult to replicate. Its business is exposed to the usual agricultural risks — weather, harvest timing, commodity pricing, and biological crop cycles — but the company’s land-development optionality gives it a broader valuation framework than a pure farming operator. That combination of agribusiness and real estate development is a key differentiator in its peer group.
Recent developments have been material. In 2025, Limoneira reported quarterly results showing revenue shifts driven by the transition to Sunkist, the timing of avocado harvests, and the sale of certain Chilean agricultural properties. The company also disclosed plans to explore housing development on its Limco Del Mar Ranch to help address Ventura County’s housing shortage, highlighting the real estate side of its strategy. Limoneira additionally received a cash distribution from its Harvest at Limoneira real estate joint venture. For investors, LMNR remains a niche U.S. agricultural and land-asset story on the Nasdaq, with earnings tied to lemons, avocados, and selective real estate monetization.
