* 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 ($181.6k this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $4.29. Options: 5 managers hold calls ($363.8k notional), 4 hold puts ($251.0k).

Major shareholders (over 5%)
Anyone who owns more than 5% of a class of the company's shares has to say so: on Schedule 13D if they may try to influence or control the company, on 13G if they're a passive investor, and update it as the stake changes. Each holder's latest filing, from 19 Dec 2024 on; percentages are of the share class, as the holder worked them out.
No one currently above 5% in the filings since 19 Dec 2024.
Fell to 5% or below in the last year: DEUTSCHE BANK AG\ (4.9%, 2026-08-13), VANGUARD GROUP INC (0.0%, 2026-03-27)
