* Summed across managers. Shares that two managers' reports both contain – a subsidiary's holdings that its parent's report includes too, or a sub-adviser's in its client's – are counted once ($18.5m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 71.2m as of 2026-08-04, from the company's own SEC filing; the percentage can still exceed 100%: lent-out shares are counted by the lender and the buyer, and some reports overlap without saying so. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $48.44. Options: 11 managers hold calls ($70.1m notional), 5 hold puts ($1.6m).
