1 insider bought €1.9M of shares over the last 90 days, the latest filed 11 Sept 2026.
Every trade that managers of United States Lime & Minerals Inc disclose to SEC (Form 4) is tracked on this page. The company sits in the Chemicals & Materials sector. Over the twelve months to 18 October 2026, the company's managers filed 10 filings, from 9 insiders.
Purchases and sales both appear in the filings: 1 purchase (1 insider, €1.9M) and 2 sales (2 insiders, €2.0M). The net balance comes to €131k on the selling side. A purchase on the market is a deliberate choice to commit personal money, which is why it draws more attention than a grant. At €1.9M, the purchase published on 11 September 2026 by Candou Holdings Ltd. is the largest of the period (0.069% of market cap). The buyers include 1 major shareholder.
The latest purchase dates back some time: it was published 36 days ago, on 11 September 2026. The median gap between a trade and its publication by SEC (Form 4) is 2 days. Section 16 rules allow two business days to file each Form 4. Selling is not necessarily a view on the stock: liquidity needs and diversification are common motives.
With 10 filings in twelve months, the company is quieter than the median of 19 filings across the 5,816 companies we follow on the same exchange. The full history, which starts in 2016, counts 6 purchases against 24 sales. The 10-K for the year ended 31 December 2025 shows 372.7 m USD of revenue and 134.3 m USD of net income and a dividend of 0.24 USD per share.

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.

United States Lime & Minerals, Inc. (USLM) is a U.S.-listed industrial materials company traded on the NASDAQ market in the United States. For French-speaking investors, it is best viewed as a niche basic-materials operator with a focus on lime and limestone products used across industrial, environmental, agricultural, and construction end markets. The company is headquartered in Dallas, Texas, and was incorporated in 1950. Its business is organized around two segments: Lime and Limestone Operations, and Natural Gas Interests tied to acreage in Texas. ([sec.gov](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/82020/000110465926020480/uslm-20251231x10k.htm?utm_source=openai))
Operationally, USLM manufactures and sells a focused portfolio that includes high calcium quicklime, hydrated lime, lime kiln dust, lime slurry, and high calcium limestone. These products are essential inputs for a wide range of processes, including highway and building construction, steel and other metals, paper and glass manufacturing, municipal water and wastewater treatment, flue gas treatment and emissions control, roofing, agriculture, and certain oil and gas services. That customer mix gives the company broad end-market exposure, while still keeping its business centered on a relatively narrow product set. ([uslm.com](https://www.uslm.com/main.html?utm_source=openai))
Geographically, the company remains heavily focused on the central United States, with plants and distribution facilities in Arkansas, Colorado, Louisiana, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas. This regional footprint is strategically important because lime and limestone are bulky, logistics-sensitive products that are typically sourced near demand centers when possible. USLM’s competitive position is therefore less about global scale and more about local asset quality, stable supply relationships, and proximity to customers in its served markets. ([uslm.com](https://www.uslm.com/?utm_source=openai))
From an industry perspective, USLM is a specialized materials company rather than a diversified mining conglomerate. It operates open-pit quarries and, at certain locations, an underground mine, supported by company-owned plants and transportation assets. The business benefits from vertical integration in a number of its markets and from long-standing commercial relationships in construction, environmental services, and industrial processing.

Recent developments are meaningful for investors. In 2024, the company began construction of a new vertical kiln and related infrastructure at its Texas Lime Company plant, with estimated project cost of about $65 million and expected startup in the summer of 2026. USLM also reported revenue growth through 2025, including an increase in the third quarter and first nine months, and continued to disclose insider activity through SEC Form 4 filings, which is relevant for monitoring alignment and ownership dynamics. Overall, the name offers a conservative, U.S.-centric industrial materials profile with a visible capital project pipeline and exposure to both cyclical and defensible end markets.
