Insider sales are small relative to market cap but the timing—within days of a $225M discount offering—indicates insiders were comfortable selling after dilution. Watch for additional selling by C-suite and potential follow-on offerings. The CEO's option exercise also adds selling pressure.
Price Chart
Executive Summary
Three insiders at uniQure (QURE), including the CEO and Chief Medical Officer, sold a combined $1.67M in stock within a week of a $225M dilutive offering. CEO Kapusta also exercised options in a cashless transaction. The cluster is small relative to the $2.6B market cap (~0.06%) but carries negative signal due to its proximity to the capital raise, which was priced at a 7.2% discount to market.
