Director dealings: Boohoo.com directors buy-in

Following the £24,965.4 transaction, Catto was left holding 2.585m ordinary shares in the online fashion retailer, the company said in a statement.

Buying alongside him on the same day was Iain McDonald, who picked-up 25,000 shares at 173.75p for a total transaction amount of £43,438.

McDonald joined the firm on the prior 14 June as chair of its remuneration committee.

Coincidentally, both gentlemen happened to purchase just as the shares were approaching the 38.2% Fibonnaci retracement of their meteoric rise since 1 January 2015.

In the background, on 20 November analysts at N+1 Singer upgraded their recommendation on the shares from a 'hold' back to a 'buy'.

They said: "For investors wondering where all the shoppers have been, they have probably been shopping online at Boohoo [...] and will be logging in again this weekend after the UKs fashion press, bloggers, vloggers and influencers give what will inevitably be a lot of positive commentary to spring/summer lines showcased at its fashion event yesterday.

"[...] The mood of the team was very upbeat and their continuing focus on capacity solutions means risk there is being managed. After the recent 30% correction there is scope for shares to rebound."

However, N+1 Singer kept its 12-month target price unchanged at 225p.
