In the last twelve months, the biggest single purchase by an insider was when insider Martin Rowney bought AU$127k worth of shares at a price of AU$0.008 per share. So it's clear an insider wanted to buy, even at a higher price than the current share price (being AU$0.007). Their view may have changed since then, but at least it shows they felt optimistic at the time. We always take careful note of the price insiders pay when purchasing shares. Generally speaking, it catches our eye when an insider has purchased shares at above current prices, as it suggests they believed the shares were worth buying, even at a higher price. Martin Rowney was the only individual insider to buy during the last year. We note that Martin Rowney was both the biggest buyer and the biggest seller.
Martin Rowney bought 32.00m shares over the last 12 months at an average price of AU$0.0068.
