* 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 ($1.7m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 35.8m as of 2025-08-05, 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 ≈ $35.25. Options: 3 managers hold calls ($13.6k notional), 2 hold puts ($35.2k).
