Kenneth L. Gestal

Kenneth L. Gestal appears in our data through filings on UFP Technologies Inc shares, published by SEC (Form 4). The record holds 80 filings, for trades running from 22 August 2006 to 23 November 2015.

In open-market terms, that means 3 purchases worth €58k on one side and 43 sales worth €2.2M on the other. Sales outweigh purchases by €2.1M. Open-market purchases are the filings investors watch most closely, because the insider pays for the shares out of pocket. Besides market trades, the filings include 5 share grants and 27 option exercises. Since January 2015: no purchases and 12 sales on the market.

Half of the purchases are above €19k and half below. For 3 purchases whose 90-day window has closed, the share price was higher on day 90 than the day after publication in 100% of cases, with a median move of +3.6%. These figures describe past trades and do not predict future prices.

The record was last updated on 23 November 2015 with an option exercise (€6,444) in UFP Technologies Inc. The clock since the last published purchase (10 September 2009) now reads 6,268 days. Between a trade and the moment it shows up on SEC (Form 4), the median delay is 2 days. For comparison, the SEC allows two business days to file a Form 4. Selling is not necessarily a view on the stock: liquidity needs and diversification are common motives. These figures are compiled from regulatory filings published by SEC (Form 4). They describe what insiders did and are not a recommendation.
