Whitehaven Coal Limited: what insiders have been doing

Every trade that managers of Whitehaven Coal Limited disclose to ASX is tracked on this page. The company is based in Australia. The last twelve months, up to 18 October 2026, brought 6 filings signed by 5 insiders.

No insider sold shares on the market over the period. Instead, the filings list 4 purchases totalling €120k, made by 3 insiders. Buying on the open market means paying the going price with one's own funds, a different act from receiving shares as pay. Mick McCormack filed the largest purchase, €45k, on 24 August 2026, which represents 0.0012% of the company's market value. Among those who bought: 3 senior executives.

The data flag 3 purchases as part of a group of insiders buying within 30 days of each other. A cluster is several different insiders buying the same stock within a short window, a pattern studied more closely than a single purchase. The last insider purchase was made public on 25 September 2026, 44 days ago.

Across the 1,605 companies tracked on its exchange, the median is 4 filings; at 6 filings, this issuer sits above that mark. Since 2026, the database holds 4 purchases and no sales by insiders of the company.

Every figure here comes from the filings published by ASX and describes the past, not future prices; it is not investment advice.
