2 “Strong Buy” Stocks Insiders Are Snapping Up
- Every investor has a trick up his sleeve, some surefire plan or strategy for finding the right stocks to buy. But a wise investor always remembers: the best strategies are data-based, grounded in real-world information.And who has better information on the potential direction of a stock, than the company officers who oversee it? The advantage of following these insiders isn’t just that they are privy to data which the rest of us don’t necessarily know – it’s also that they are held responsible for their decisions. Company officers can’t just make trading choices based on personal preference or profit. They must account for their choices to board members and shareholders – and that audience wants to make money, too. So, when corporate insiders start buying up stock in their own company, it’s a strong signal for investors.Bearing this in mind, we used the Insiders’ Hot Stocks tool from TipRanks to point us in the direction of "Strong Buy" stocks the insiders are snapping up. We found two names flashing signs of strong insider buying that warrant a closer look. AquaBounty Technologies (AQB)Massachusetts-based AquaBounty is a company you probably haven’t heard of, but there’s a good chance that you’ve benefited from its tech and products. The company is biotech in the aquaculture niche, developing genetically modified salmon for the fish farming industry. AquaBounty is working to develop new strains of salmon that mature faster – allowing fish farmers to get more fish to market, faster, resulting in lower prices and greater variety for the consumer. AQB’s salmon strains are already approved in the US and Canada, and the company is working on trout and tilapia.Like many biotech firms, AQB typically operates with a net loss – but that net loss has been growing smaller in recent quarters. The first half of this year, despite the corona crisis, saw AquaBounty meet or beat the quarterly EPS forecast. In addition, the company has moved to raise capital this year, with two offerings of common stock. The first was back in February, when the company put 9 million shares on the market; the second was last week, when an additional 11 million shares of AQB were offered.That second stock offering has our attention, because two insiders made multi-million dollar purchases. Alana Czypinski, member of the Board, and Randal Kirk, Executive Chair, each put down 10 million dollars for 4 million shares. These were major purchases that swung the insider sentiment on this stock strongly positive.Covering AquaBounty for National Research, analyst Ben Klieve writes, “We believe AQB has the most disruptive proprietary product of any emerging company across the food chain today, and view the Atlantic Salmon market as uniquely suited for disruption… we believe the enhanced growth characteristics of AAS via advanced genetics will enable AQB to balance the logistical, environmental, and economic considerations more effectively than any peer in the market today.”Klieve sets a Buy rating on AQB shares and backs it with a $5 price target, suggesting a 96% upside for the stock. (To watch Klieve’s track record, click here)Overall, AQB has 3 recent Buy ratings, making the analyst consensus a Strong Buy. The stock is selling for $2.55 and carries a $4.50 average price target, implying an impressive upside of 76%. (See AquaBounty stock analysis on TipRanks)IAC/InterActiveCorp (IAC)The next stock for today is a tech company, InterActiveCorp. This is a holding company, with a market cap of $10.5 billion and portfolio built on an array of popular, high-trafficked websites, including Vimeo, Daily Beast, Investopedia, and The Spruce. IAC sees more than $3 billion in annual revenues, and recently reported $726.4 million in Q2 revenues. Since going public in June, IAC shares have gained 15%.On the insider front, board of directors member Michael Eisner has pushed the sentiment positive with a $4.98 million purchase. He picked up a block of 40,555 shares on August 14. His purchase comes less than a month after IAC separated from its data site brands, splitting Match Group from the parent company.IAC has also made a major investment in MGM resorts recently, putting over $1 billion into the effort. This move has caught the attention of Wedbush analyst Ygal Arounian, who writes, “This is clearly a long-term bet, but as gaming trends move online, there is a significant market opportunity here as well. The global gaming market is ~$450B with only about 10% online penetration and should see strong tailwinds (particularly in sports betting in our view) as states start to deregulate gaming more.”Arounian raised his price target on the stock to $170, indicating confidence in a robust 37% upside, and backing his Buy rating. (To watch Arounian’s track record, click here)The analyst consensus rating on InterActiveCorp is a Strong Buy, based on a 14 to 1 split between Buy and Hold ratings.

AquaBounty Technologies Announces Financial Results for the Quarter and Six Months Ended June 30, 2020, and Provides Corporate Update
- MAYNARD, Mass., Aug. 06, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AquaBounty Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: AQB) (“AquaBounty” or the “Company”), a land-based aquaculture company utilizing technology to enhance productivity and sustainability, has provided a corporate update and financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2020. Key Second Quarter 2020 & Subsequent Company Highlights: * Completed the first harvest of conventional Atlantic salmon in June at the Company’s Indiana farm, validating its land-based Recirculating Aquaculture System (RAS) as an efficient and sustainable way to raise Atlantic salmon. The Indiana-based farm expects to ramp up monthly harvest of conventional salmon throughout the summer and plans to reach 100 metric tons per month by early 2021. * Closed a $4.0 million loan with First Farmers Bank & Trust to fund capital improvements and automation equipment at the Indiana farm. * Selected Site Selection Group to identify the most advantageous site for the Company’s planned 10,000 metric ton farm and CRB USA to design the facility. * Engaged international investor relations specialists MZ Group to expand its strategic investor relations and financial communications program across key markets.Management CommentarySylvia Wulf, Chief Executive Officer of AquaBounty, stated: “The highlight of the second quarter was the announcement of our first harvest of conventional Atlantic salmon at our Indiana farm, an important milestone as we refine harvest systems and processes ahead of our expected initial harvest of AquAdvantage salmon in the fourth quarter this year in Indiana, followed by the anticipated first harvest of AquAdvantage salmon at our Canada-based, Prince Edward Island Farm in the first quarter of 2021.“The first harvest of conventional salmon represents the start of the commercialization phase for AquAdvantage salmon (AAS), a milestone over 30 years in the making. This will be a breakthrough moment not only for AquaBounty, but for the industry—as it will be the first sale of a genetically engineered animal protein in the U.S. We completed proprietary consumer research in Q4 of 2019, and the insights have been used to build out our communications program that we began executing in conjunction with our first harvest and anticipate will support the commercial launch of AAS later this year. Furthermore, we continue to receive inbound interest from potential offtake partners, who see the inherent value in AAS, from both a sustainability and economic perspective, and we anticipate finalizing commercial agreements with key potential customers and distributors in advance of the first AAS harvest.“After engaging Site Selection Group and CRB USA, we have made significant progress on finalizing the potential site and design for our planned 10,000 metric ton farm and will soon select the farm’s RAS technology provider. We are on schedule to select the farm’s location this quarter and expect to begin construction in early 2021. We believe we are now positioned to seize emerging growth opportunities within the space.“While we plan to construct our own facilities at first to validate our business model to the world, our long-term, capital-light goal is to make AAS the clear choice for existing land-based RAS farm operators who wish to remain competitive in the marketplace. I eagerly look forward to what the future holds for AquaBounty,” concluded Wulf.Financial Summary through June 30, 2020 * Cash and cash equivalents were $10.0 million as of June 30, 2020 ($2.8 million at December 31, 2019). In February, the Company completed a public offering of common shares that provided $14.5 million in net proceeds. * Cash used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020, was $7.0 million, compared with $5.2 million in the same period of the prior year. Growth of fish inventory biomass was the driver. * Cash used for capital projects for the six months ended June 30, 2020, was $1.6 million compared with $0.9 million in the same period of the prior year. The funds were primarily used for equipment upgrades at the Indiana farm. * Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020, was $6.6 million, or $0.22 per share, compared to a net loss of $6.8 million, or $0.37 per share, in the same period of the prior year.About AquaBounty Technologies, Inc.AquaBounty Technologies, Inc.

3 Stocks Insiders Are Snapping Up
- After the last few trading sessions, with the markets taking a nose-dive, investors can be excused for wondering if they’re doing something wrong. They’re not. Markets run in cycles, and are sensitive to Black Swan events, two factors that are on market watchers’ minds.The economic expansion is in its eleventh year, a record streak. But with that longevity comes the worry – how much longer can this last? As for the Black Swans, the unpredictable events that hit the market but no one saw coming, one is in play right now. The coronavirus outbreak – emerging from China and now cropping up around the world – is disrupting trade and travel, with governments imposing quarantines and travel restrictions to try and cope as health officials warn that a pandemic could be on the horizon.This all just brings us back to the question: how do you find investment-grade stocks in a volatile market? There isn’t one sure answer; plenty of investment strategies can steer you toward profits. But there is one possibility that might make investing easier – just follow the insiders.Insiders – the corporate officers, board members, and others ‘in the know’ – don’t just manage the companies, they know the details. Legally, they are not supposed to trade that knowledge, or to blatantly trade on it, and disclosure rules by government regulators help to keep the insiders honest. Their honest stock transactions, however, can be highly informative. These are the people with the deepest knowledge of particular stocks. So, when they buy or sell, especially in bulk, take note!TipRanks has the tools to help you do just that. The Insiders’ Hot Stocks page shows which stocks top insiders are most active on, for both purchases and sales. You can sort insider trades by a variety of filters, including trading strategy. We’ve done some of the legwork for you, and pulled up three stocks with recent informative buy-side transactions. Here are the results.Bunge, Ltd. (BG)The first stock we’ll look at is Bunge, a global player in the food and agriculture market. Bunge works with oilseeds and grains used to make high-protein feed for livestock, as well as edible oils for commercial customers. The company buys and sells, stores, transports, and processes the raw materials for the end products. In addition, Bunge has operations in the sugar business, with sugarcane, wheat, and corn growing operations, mills, and ethanol processing facilities.Bunge’s niche is a profitable one, and it has consistently beaten earnings expectations over the past four quarters. The company’s Q4 beat, reporting EPS of $1.27 against a 22-cent forecast, was particularly strong. Consensus for the next report, due in the spring, is for 82 cents EPS.Bunge also offers investors a nice dividend. The payment, of 50 cents quarterly, annualizes to $2, and gives a yield of 4.3%. Not to mention BG’s dividend history is reliable, 18 years long and going strong.In recent days, no fewer than four insiders have made informative purchases on BG stock. These insiders include the CEO, CFO, and a member of the company’s Board of Directors – all high-level officers. Their transactions range in size from 3,750 shares worth over $199,000 to 37,000 shares now worth almost $2 million. Stock purchases on this level are more than just adjusting holdings for compensation purposes. And it gives BG stock a very positive confidence signal.This becomes clear when we consult with the analysts. 5-star analyst Kenneth Zaslow writes about BG for BMO Capital, saying, “BG’s EPS of $1.27 far exceeded consensus, as risk management, plant optimization, asset sales, and efficiency programs enabled BG to capture select opportunities, higher crush volumes, improved utilization rates, and strong oil margins… We are designating BG as our ‘Top Pick’ for 2020…”Zaslow backs his Buy rating with a $72 price target, implying an upside potential of 53%. (To watch Zaslow’s track record, click here)Even with just one recent Buy rating, BG shares are still looking strong. The stock’s average price target of $67 suggests a 43% upside from the share price of $46.87. (See Bunge stock analysis on TipRanks) Simply Good Foods Company (SMPL)Next up is food and snack company Simply Good Foods, a mid-cap player formed just three years ago as the fruit of a corporate merger. It operates in the states of Connecticut and Colorado, offering a range of nutritional snack foods including confectionery products, ready-to-drink shakes, and nutrition bars.SMPL released its fiscal Q1 results last month, and showed its third earnings beat in the last four quarters. EPS was 4.7% above estimates, at 22 cents, while revenue reflected a 26% annual gain and was reported at $152.15 million.Two of SMPL’s board members have bought heavily into the stock this month. The buys range from 10,000 shares to 89,000, and the dollar amounts range from $229,700 to $1.99 million. These purchases are interesting considering the company’s recent acquisition of a competitor. SMPL paid out $1 billion in cash and credit to buy Quest Nutrition. Despite adding some $460 million to its loan balance, SMPL was still able to post impressive quarterly results. It’s a piece of public information that helps to underline the Directors’ confidence.Wall Street is also confident in this company. Writing from Wells Fargo, 4-star analyst John Baumgartner says, “…we see an increasingly favorable 12-month risk/reward. We reiterate our thesis that FY20 revenue is setting up for a beat-and-raise path for both legacy Atkins and Quest…”Baumgartner places a Buy rating here, along with a $35 price target that indicates room for 59% upside growth. (To watch Baumgartner’s track record, click here)Deutsche Bank’s Faiza Alwy is also bullish. Alwy writes, “…solid trends in core bar and confection categories are helping drive robust growth. For legacy Atkins, this growth is entirely driven by velocity and attracting new consumers to the category who are focused on healthy eating – a trend that seems poised to continue longer-term.”Alwy’s price target of $32 implies a 45% possible upside to back a Buy rating. (To watch Alwy’s track record, click here)With 3 recent Buy-side ratings, SMPL gets a Strong Buy rating from the analyst consensus. Shares are selling for $22.06, and the $33 average price target suggests an upside growth potential of 50%. (See Simply Good Foods stock analysis on TipRanks) AquaBounty Technologies, Inc. (AQB)Last on our list today is a dollar stock. AquaBounty, based in Massachusetts, is a biotech company that focuses on genetically modified fish for farming. In short, AQB develops faster growing fish to make fish farming both more productive and more profitable. The company’s salmon has been approved for sale by both the US and Canadian governments. AquaBounty is also working on trout and tilapia strains.Earlier this month, the company announced a drive to raise capital through a sale of common stock. The offering was for 9 million shares at $1.50 each. A few days later, board member Randal Kirk purchased over 5 million shares at $1.50. Kirk is a 10%-plus owner of the company. An informative buy, indeed – Kirk’s purchase can be taken as a signal of confidence.AQB won’t report Q4 earnings until next week, but in Q3, the company beat the forecast by 22%. Looking ahead, the consensus is for continued improvement at the bottom line, as the company’s net loss moderates to just 1 cent per share.AquaBounty has only one recent analyst review, by Ben Klieve of National Research. Klieve’s $5 price target on the stock shows the degree of his confidence: it implies an upside growth potential of 184% for AQB. That’s a fast-growing fish. (To watch Klieve’s track record, click here)Klieve writes of the stock, “We believe in advance of its first harvest that the company will be able to formally announce customers are in hand, which we believe will not only better enable expansion but will also be a significant catalyst for the stock.” (See AQB price targets and analyst ratings on TipRanks)
