* 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 ($15.7m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 715.9m as of 2025-02-05, 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 ≈ $51.34. Options: 45 managers hold calls ($1.0bn notional), 41 hold puts ($599.2m).

Options at notional value: the value of the shares the contracts control, as filers report them, not what the options cost. Not included in the holders, shares or buying above.
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.

Stated purposeItem 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the text below to the end of Item 4 of the Schedule 13D. The Issuer has historically maintained a share repurchase program for the repurchase of shares of its Common Stock from time to time. As a result of repurchases under this program, the number of shares of outstanding Common Stock has decreased, and consequently, the percentages of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by certain of the Reporting Persons have passively increased. ESBT S Trust and Ms. Dumont adopt the disclosure made by the other Reporting Persons in Item 4 of the Schedule 13D. Full filing |

Their holding: how much the trade added to or took from the insider's holding (direct, or the trust or fund named). The same trade is sometimes reported by more than one insider, such as a fund and the director who represents it; totals count it once. A value is left blank where the reported price is far from the market price (usually a typo).
