The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Enviro Energy International Holdings

In the last twelve months, the biggest single sale by an insider was when the insider, Lihui Pan, sold HK$11m worth of shares at a price of HK$0.05 per share. So it's clear an insider wanted to take some cash off the table, even below the current price of HK$0.052. 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. While insider selling is not a positive sign, we can't be sure if it does mean insiders think the shares are fully valued, so it's only a weak sign. It is worth noting that this sale was 100% of Lihui Pan's holding. Lihui Pan was the only individual insider to sell over the last year. Notably Lihui Pan was also the biggest buyer, having purchased HK$1.3m worth of shares.

Lihui Pan divested 228.27m shares over the last 12 months at an average price of HK$0.05. The chart below shows insider transactions (by companies and individuals) over the last year.
