The insider Gerald Harvey made the biggest insider purchase in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for AU$7.0m worth of shares at a price of AU$0.28 each. That means that an insider was happy to buy shares at above the current price of AU$0.22. It's very possible they regret the purchase, but it's more likely they are bullish about the company. We always take careful note of the price insiders pay when purchasing shares. It is encouraging to see an insider paid above the current price for shares, as it suggests they saw value, even at higher levels. The only individual insider to buy over the last year was Gerald Harvey.

Many investors like to check how much of a company is owned by insiders. A high insider ownership often makes company leadership more mindful of shareholder interests.

We've certainly seen higher levels of insider ownership elsewhere, but these holdings are enough to suggest alignment between insiders and the other shareholders.
The recent insider purchase is heartening. And an analysis of the transactions over the last year also gives us confidence. But we don't feel the same about the fact the company is making losses. Insiders likely see value in Mayur Resources shares, given these transactions (along with notable insider ownership of the company).
