American multinational company serving the combined industries of health information technology and clinical research
* 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 ($142.7m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 185.7m as of 2023-02-06, 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 ≈ $205.31. Options: 13 managers hold calls ($39.8m notional), 12 hold puts ($40.0m).
