* 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 ($20.7m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 139.2m as of 2025-11-04, 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 ≈ $16.12. Options: 21 managers hold calls ($264.6m notional), 17 hold puts ($62.7m).
