Brian K. Bancroft

Brian K. Bancroft is a declared insider of Oil-Dri Corp of America, with filings sourced from SEC (Form 4). The record holds 26 filings, for trades running from 15 March 2006 to 25 January 2010.

On the open market, the record shows 3 purchases worth €10k and 12 sales worth €168k. The net balance comes to €157k on the selling side. Open-market purchases are the filings investors watch most closely, because the insider pays for the shares out of pocket. The rest of the record consists of 3 share grants and 5 option exercises. In 2010 alone, the filings show no purchases and 2 sales.

The median purchase comes to €4,148. After 3 purchases with a full 90-day history, the hit rate stands at 0% and the median 90-day move at -4.8%. This is a record of the past, not a forecast.

On 25 January 2010 came the latest disclosure, an option exercise for €4,436 in Oil-Dri Corp of America. The clock since the last published purchase (16 October 2008) now reads 6,598 days. Between a trade and the moment it shows up on SEC (Form 4), the median delay is 1 day. US insiders must file a Form 4 within two business days of a trade. Sales are harder to read than purchases, since they often meet personal needs such as tax or diversification. These figures are compiled from regulatory filings published by SEC (Form 4).
