Context
Sales by executives are common for liquidity, tax, or portfolio reasons; they do not necessarily indicate a change in view of the company's prospects. For retail investors, purchases are sometimes more informative about insider sentiment; these entries are disclosures of sales. If you want exact post-transaction ownership or a per-price breakdown, that information can be requested from Essent or the SEC staff per the footnotes.
