Boris Shimanovsky, Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer at ZipRecruiter Inc, sold 7,330 shares of the company on August 20, 2025. The insider now owns 312,606 shares of ZipRecruiter Inc, with a market cap of $388.548 million. The stock's GF Value is estimated at $8.97, and the price-to-GF-Value ratio is 0.48, suggesting the stock is a "Possible Value Trap, Think Twice" based on its GF Value. This is part of a broader trend of insider selling at ZipRecruiter Inc.
ZipRecruiter Inc. (NYSE: ZIP) has been under scrutiny following its latest earnings report and subsequent insider selling. The company's stock price surged 15% to US$4.34 in the week since its second-quarter results, with revenues of US$112m in line with analyst expectations, but statutory losses were smaller than anticipated at US$0.10 per share [1].Analysts have adjusted their forecasts for 2025, expecting revenues to reach US$449.8m, a figure similar to the past 12 months. However, per-share losses are projected to increase to US$0.53. This has led to a significant drop in the consensus price target, which fell 19% to US$5.80. The range of analyst estimates varies widely, from a high of US$10.00 to a low of US$4.00 per share, indicating divergent views on the company's valuation [1].

Following this sale, Shimanovsky now owns 312,606 shares, representing a 3.8% stake in the company. The insider's action comes amidst a broader trend of selling by ZipRecruiter's insiders, with the stock's GF Value estimated at US$8.97 and a price-to-GF-Value ratio of 0.48, suggesting the stock is a "Possible Value Trap" [2].
The company's revenue is expected to decline 0.3% annually by the end of 2025, a trend that is better than the historical trend of 27% annual decline over the past three years. However, this is still worse than the industry average, which is projected to grow 11% annually. The analysts' forecasts indicate a more pessimistic outlook for ZipRecruiter compared to its peers [1].
