* 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 ($340.7k this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 216.6m as of 2025-04-21, 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 ≈ $5.31. Options: 20 managers hold calls ($22.1m notional), 19 hold puts ($21.1m).
