ELAN Elanco Animal Health Inc
Price Chart
Executive Summary
Elanco CEO Jeffrey Simmons and another insider made open-market purchases totaling $200K on May 15, 2026, at ~$20.09-$20.35 per share. This is a small cluster relative to the $10.9B market cap (~0.002%), but the CEO's personal cash purchase is a modest positive signal. A director also received a non-cash grant of 4,678 shares on May 21, which is routine and not economically meaningful.
Key Financial Metrics
Actionable Insight
The CEO's personal purchase is a modest bullish signal, but the dollar amount is trivial relative to market cap. Monitor for any upcoming earnings or material announcements that may have prompted the insider buying. The historical calibration for this ticker shows poor past performance on bullish calls, so treat this as a low-conviction signal.
