What this transaction means for investors
Board of Directors member Dr. Ranbir Singh's sale of Navitas Semiconductor stock on Dec. 12 is noteworthy because it represents a significant amount of his remaining shares held indirectly via SiCPower, LLC. It also comes on the heels of fellow Director Gary Kent Wunderlich's Dec. 10 and Dec. 11 sale of company shares.
The size and number of insider stock sales is concerning. Navitas shares saw a run up this year due to investor excitement around the rapid growth of the artificial intelligence market. Products sold by Navitas are used by data centers which house AI systems.
Even so, Navitas Semiconductor's sales in the third quarter were down to $10.1 million compared to $21.7 million in the prior year, and the company is not profitable. Considering the revenue decline despite the hot AI field, coupled with substantial insider stock sales after a share price run up, Navitas does not look like a stock to buy. If you own shares, now is the time to sell given its high price-to-sales ratio of 27.
