Vaalco Energy Inc /DE/, classified in the Energy sector, is a listed company based in Houston, United States, founded in 1985. Its insiders report their share dealings to SEC (Form 4). From 22 October 2025 to 22 October 2026, the disclosure feed for Vaalco Energy Inc /DE/ logged 9 filings by 3 insiders.
The filings describe grants, exercises and other transfers rather than trades on the open market. Such operations are usually part of compensation schedules, which makes them a weaker signal than an open-market trade.
