  • Company insiders have been both buyers and sellers of shares in the past year, but the company Chairman has been a large net seller in that time.

    Overall, insiders own about 3.6 percent of company shares.

    The company, which manufactures various absorbent products from drying agents to cat litters, has seen shares decline about 8 percent over the past year, even as earnings grew by double-digits. Shares trade at about 12 times earnings, and at just under 0.1 times price to sales.

    Action to take: There’s a relative value in shares right now. While that’s not as exciting as the prospective returns of a high-growth tech stock, it’s an area where insiders are doing some buying. The company has largely been range-trading between the low and high $30 range over the past few months, and are closer to the low $30 range.
