Recent PDMR share purchases have generally been followed by flat to slightly negative next-day moves, with only one of the last five such announcements showing a positive reaction.
This announcement continues a series of PDMR share dealings at The Magnum Ice Cream Company N.V. through December 2025. Multiple insiders, including the CEO, CFO, Board Chair and other senior leaders, have been acquiring ordinary shares across Amsterdam, New York and London exchanges. Despite this steady insider buying, next‑day price reactions around prior PDMR news ranged between about -2.16% and 0.82%, often slightly negative. Today’s disclosure of an additional Chief Legal Officer purchase fits this ongoing pattern of management increasing exposure while the share price trades modestly below its 52-week high.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement details another PDMR purchase, with the Chief Legal Officer acquiring 7,491 ordinary shares at €13.35 each, totaling €100,004.85, under EU and UK Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014. It extends a visible pattern of insider buying across senior management through December 2025. With the share price around €15.90, above its 200-day MA €15.67 yet below the 52-week high €16.89, future updates on additional insider activity and broader corporate developments remain key reference points.
