Discl: Held IRL 2.86% and in SM
Good to see Gary and Karen Washing, the co-founders buying about $59k of AHL stock on market. A few interesting points about this purchase:
1. It is barely 0.13% of the the 49.3m shares they currently own.
2. This is the first time that the Founders have transacted on AHL shares since AHL’s listing in Sep 2022 - shares were released from escrow in Mar 2023, 2.5 years ago, and they chose to buy
3. It also comes on the back of the CEO’s small on-market purchase on 19 Nov 2025
Could this be a sign that the Co-Founders are comfortable with Paul thus far, I wonder? I ask this as they could have got a significantly better entry point to add shares in the last 1.5 years, since July 2024, during which 2 CEO's came and went, but they chose to do it now when the share price is moving to levels not seen for some time.
Regardless, as small a purchase as this is, given their track record of no transactions in the past 3 years since listing, this can’t be but a good sign ...
Discl: Held IRL 3.25% and in SM
Gary Washington has topped up his shared Executive A/C with more on-market purchases, adding about 38.5% more to his previous purchase of 64,010 shares last week
It has probably contributed to the nice move in the past week, which got stopped at 1.10, this being the previous Apr 2024 high.
No issues if he kept buying for the sake of hoarding AHL shares because he has insider knowledge of good things to come ... or is there more to this I wonder ... ?
