Steven Michael Hennen, the Chief Financial Officer of SPAR Group, Inc., acquired 78,000 shares of common stock for $49,920. While coded as an open market purchase, the transaction was made pursuant to a stock purchase agreement, utilizing after-tax proceeds from a one-time cash award tied to his employment agreement. This increases insider ownership, which is generally a positive signal, though the pre-arranged nature of the purchase suggests it is less of a discretionary conviction buy. This follows a recent DEF 14A filing outlining a new 2M share compensation plan, and comes after the company reported a significantly widened net loss and a Nasdaq delisting notice.
At the time of this filing, SGRP was trading at $0.64 on NASDAQ in the Trade & Services sector, with a market capitalization of approximately $15.5M. The 52-week trading range was $0.50 to $1.41. This filing was assessed with positive market sentiment and an importance score of 7 out of 10.
