Insider Buying and Stock Buybacks
If insiders are buying shares in their own companies, it’s usually because they know something that normal investors do not. Insiders buying stock regularly show investors that managers are willing to put their money where their mouths are. The key here is to pay attention to how long the management holds shares. Flipping shares to make a quick buck is one thing; investing for the long term is another.

The same can be said for share buybacks. If you ask management of a company about buybacks, it will likely tell you that a buyback is the logical use of a company’s resources. After all, the goal of a firm’s management is to maximize return for shareholders. A buyback increases shareholder value if the company is truly undervalued.

Compensation
High-level executives pull in six or seven figures per year, and rightly so. Good management pays for itself time and time again by increasing shareholder value. But knowing what level of compensation is too high is a difficult thing to determine.

One thing to consider is that managements in different industries take in different amounts. For example, CEOs in the banking industry take in more than $20 million per year, whereas a CEO of a retail or food service company may only make $1 million. As a general rule you want to make sure that CEOs in the same industries have similar compensation.

You have to be suspicious if a manager makes an obscene amount of money while the company suffers. If a manager really cares about the shareholders in the long term, would this manager be paying him/herself exorbitant amounts of money during tough times? It all comes down to the agency problem. If a CEO is making millions of dollars when the company is going bankrupt, what incentive does he or she have to do a good job?

You can’t talk about compensation without mentioning stock options. A few years back, many praised options as the solution to ensuring that management increases shareholder value. The theory sounds good, but doesn’t work as well in reality. It’s true that options tie compensation to performance, but not necessarily for the benefit of long-term investors. Many executives simply did whatever it took to drive up the share price so they could vest their options to make a quick buck. Investors then realized the books had been cooked, so share prices plummeted back down while management made out with millions. Also, stock options aren’t free, so the money has to come from somewhere, usually the dilution of existing shareholder’s stock. (For further reading,

As with stock ownership, look to see whether management is using options as a way to get rich or if it is actually tied to increasing value over the long run. You can sometimes find this in the notes to the financial statements. (For more on this, see Footnotes: Start Reading The Fine Print.) If not, take a look in the EDGAR database for a Form 14A. The 14A will list among other factors background information on the managers, their compensation (including options grants) and inside ownership.

Length of Tenure
One good indicator is how long the CEO and top management has been serving the company. A great example is General Electric whose former CEO, Jack Welch, was with the company for around 20 years before he retired. Many herald him as being one of the best managers of all time.

Warren Buffett has also talked about Berkshire Hathaway’s superb record of management retention. One of Buffett’s investment criteria is to look for solid stable managements that stick with their companies for the long term.

Strategy and Goals
Ask yourself, what kind of goals has the management set out for the company? Does the company have a mission statement? How concise is the mission statement? A good mission statement creates goals for management, employees, stockholders and even partners. It’s a bad sign when companies lace their mission statement with the latest buzz words and corporate jargon.
