Victrex plc: what insiders have been doing
This page follows insider dealings at Victrex plc as filed with RNS (LSE) based in Cleveleys, United Kingdom. The group dates from 1993. In the past year (18 October 2025 to 18 October 2026), 9 filings came from 6 insiders.
Only purchases show up on the open market, 4 purchases in all worth €255k, filed by 3 insiders. No amount is published for 2 filings, which the totals therefore leave out. A purchase on the market is a deliberate choice to commit personal money, which is why it draws more attention than a grant. The largest single trade was a purchase of €229k by Dr James Routh, published on 17 February 2026. Among those who bought: 2 chief executives and 1 finance chief.
For context, the typical company on the same exchange (median of 833 companies) published 6 filings over the same period, against 9 filings here. Looking back to 2023, when coverage begins, insiders filed 24 purchases and no sales.
The clock since the last published purchase (17 February 2026) now reads 242 days. Most trades are made public on the day they happen. The regulation allows three business days to notify a trade (UK MAR).
Every figure here comes from the filings published by RNS (LSE) and describes the past, not future prices; it is not investment advice.
