10% owner Ellen B. Granado purchases 18,000 shares of E.W. Scripps (SSP) at $4.46; holdings triple to 28.0K amid cluster buy signal
Ellen B. Granado, a 10% owner of E.W. Scripps, purchased 18,000 shares at $4.46 on 2026-03-10, bringing her stake to 28,000 shares—a 180.0% increase from her prior 10,000 share position. This purchase arrives amid a material cluster pattern: 19 other insiders bought within the same 14-day window, suggesting broad-based insider acquisition activity rather than an isolated transaction. The company is currently unprofitable (net income $-33.0M most recent quarter, negative full-year net income) and facing contraction (annual revenue decline of -14.3%), yet the convergence of large shareholder accumulation during this downturn warrants investor attention to understand the insiders' underlying rationale.
