Zhihu Inc.: what insiders have been doing
Headquartered in Haidian District, People's Republic of China, Zhihu Inc. belongs to the Media sector and traces its origins to 2011. Filings by its managers are published through SEC (Form 4). The last twelve months, up to 22 October 2026, brought 5 filings signed by 3 insiders.
Only sales appear on the open market, 1 sale in all totalling €883, filed by 1 insider. One trade stands out by size: a sale of €883 from Cheng Li-Lan, disclosed on 12 June 2026.
With 5 filings in twelve months, the company is quieter than the median of 41 filings across the 2,023 companies we follow on the same exchange. Since 2026, the database holds no purchases and 1 sale by insiders of the company. On the fundamentals side, the SEC filing (20-F) for the period ending 31 December 2025 lists revenue at 2.75 bn CNY and net income at -195.2 m CNY.
Filings reach the SEC (Form 4) feed a median of 4 days after the trade. For comparison, the SEC allows two business days to file a Form 4. A sale on its own says little: insiders also sell to pay tax, fund a purchase or diversify.
For comparison within the same sector, see the insider buying recorded at ZEAL Network SE and CTS Eventim AG & Co. KGaA. Every figure here comes from the filings published by SEC (Form 4) and describes the past, not future prices; it is not investment advice.
