* 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 ($3.2m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 19.2m as of 2026-08-05, 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 ≈ $15.82. Options: 11 managers hold calls ($18.1m notional), 10 hold puts ($11.2m).
