Director dealings: Bodycote's outgoing FD halves stake before ex-div date

By Oliver Haill

Date: Thursday 07 Apr 2016

LONDON (ShareCast) - (ShareCast News) - Bodycote's outgoing finance director David Lawless has sold half his shares in the metal heat treatment group.


Lawless, who has been at the company since 1999 and is moving into a non-executive portfolio career, made almost £370,000 after selling 62,000 shares at 594.18p apiece.

He made the sale just after shares in Bodycote recent hit a six-month high, but maintained a modicum of loyalty by holding onto 63,203 shares.

Surprisingly Lawless is selling half his stake just a few weeks before the 22 April ex-dividend date, with the company due to pay a final ordinary dividend of 10.3p and a further special dividend of 10p, both of which will be paid on 3 June
