Analysis · SKIL · Technology
CEO Ronald Hovsepian bought another $99,866 of Skillsoft stock on September 17–18, just days after a $33K purchase disclosed on September 17. The two buys together total roughly $133K in a week, lifting his direct stake to 362,746 shares. This is real cash out of pocket, not option exercises or tax sales, and it comes right after the company cut full-year guidance and disclosed a $22.4M loss on the Global Knowledge sale. The CEO putting more money in while the stock trades near $6 suggests he sees value despite the recent bad news.
