The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Cassius Mining
The insider Peter Koller made the biggest insider purchase in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for AU$316k worth of shares at a price of AU$0.015 each. So it's clear an insider wanted to buy, at around the current price, which is AU$0.016. Of course they may have changed their mind. But this suggests they are optimistic. If someone buys shares at well below current prices, it's a good sign on balance, but keep in mind they may no longer see value. In this case we're pleased to report that the insider bought shares at close to current prices. Peter Koller was the only individual insider to buy during the last year.

Does Cassius Mining Boast High Insider Ownership?
Many investors like to check how much of a company is owned by insiders. I reckon it's a good sign if insiders own a significant number of shares in the company. Cassius Mining insiders own about AU$3.9m worth of shares. That equates to 38% of the company. While this is a strong but not outstanding level of insider ownership, it's enough to indicate some alignment between management and smaller shareholders.
So What Do The Cassius Mining Insider Transactions Indicate?
The recent insider purchase is heartening. And an analysis of the transactions over the last year also gives us confidence. But on the other hand, the company made a loss during the last year, which makes us a little cautious. When combined with notable insider ownership, these factors suggest Cassius Mining insiders are well aligned, and that they may think the share price is too low. So while it's helpful to know what insiders are doing in terms of buying or selling, it's also helpful to know the risks that a particular company is facing.
