If you have the habit of listening to earnings conference calls, you’ll likely have noticed that, at almost every company, management seems to be optimistic about their business. And this shouldn’t come as a surprise: why would they bad-mouth their own employer? But the prevalent optimism from management also makes it difficult for investors to get a glimpse of how the business is really doing. The good news is, while talk is cheap, if management is willing to put their money where their mouth is, it could represent a more genuine vote of confidence.
One company that insiders seem to love is Great Elm Capital Corp (NASDAQ:GECC), a business development company (BDC) headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts. According to the company’s latest investor presentation, employees and affiliates of GECC’s investment manager Great Elm Capital Management, Inc own more than 20% of the BDC’s outstanding shares.
