Lamar Advertising Co/new
One of the largest outdoor advertisers in the U.S., this company puts up billboards, digital signs, logo signs along highways, and transit advertising in dozens of U.S. and Canadian markets, with local businesses making up most of its customers. It traces back to a 1902 Pensacola poster shop started to promote a local opera house. In 1908 founder Charles Lamar's partner won a coin toss and took the opera house, leaving Lamar with what was seen as the lesser prize — the advertising business, which he named after himself and which grew into an industry giant.

Select a row to see that insider’s individual transactions. Sum of the holdings confirmed in the 12 months before this insider's last filing. A Form 4 reports a holding per line — held directly, or through a named trust, partnership or foundation, and in each share class separately — never a person’s total. Lines not restated in that time are left out and shown apart: an active filer restates what they still hold, so a line they did not restate is more often an entity since renamed, whose shares a successor line reports too. An amber marker means some were left out.
Net open-market activity over all recorded history: -3.65M shares. Grants, option exercises and tax withholding are excluded — they are compensation mechanics, not decisions to buy or sell.
