Don’t Ignore The Fact That This Insider Just Sold Some Shares In Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. (NYSE:BNL)

May 20, 2021 by Staff Reporter

Investors may wish to note that the Senior Vice President of Acquisitions of Broadstone Net Lease, Inc., Roderick Pickney, recently netted US$62k from selling stock, receiving an average price of US$20.76. However we note that the sale only shrunk their holding by 6.3%.

The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Broadstone Net Lease

In fact, the recent sale by Roderick Pickney was the biggest sale of Broadstone Net Lease shares made by an insider individual in the last twelve months, according to our records. That means that even when the share price was slightly below the current price of US$21.08, an insider wanted to cash in some shares. When an insider sells below the current price, it suggests that they considered that lower price to be fair. That makes us wonder what they think of the (higher) recent valuation. However, while insider selling is sometimes discouraging, it’s only a weak signal. It is worth noting that this sale was only 6.3% of Roderick Pickney’s holding.

Insider Ownership of Broadstone Net Lease

Another way to test the alignment between the leaders of a company and other shareholders is to look at how many shares they own. Usually, the higher the insider ownership, the more likely it is that insiders will be incentivised to build the company for the long term. It appears that Broadstone Net Lease insiders own 2.3% of the company, worth about US$77m. We’ve certainly seen higher levels of insider ownership elsewhere, but these holdings are enough to suggest alignment between insiders and the other shareholders.

So What Do The Broadstone Net Lease Insider Transactions Indicate?

An insider sold stock recently, but they haven’t been buying. And even if we look at the last year, we didn’t see any purchases. Insiders own shares, but we’re still pretty cautious, given the history of sales. We’re in no rush to buy! So these insider transactions can help us build a thesis about the stock, but it’s also worthwhile knowing the risks facing this company.
