Insights

Vanguard holds a >5% passive stake in Agilent, reported on a Schedule 13G.

Schedule 13G filings are used by investors who claim passive intent; this filing lists 14,387,171 shares and 5.09% ownership as of 03/31/2026. The filer reports dispositive power and minimal voting power (34,489 votes).

Because the filing is a 13G rather than a 13D, it signals non‑activist, passive ownership. Subsequent 13G amendments or a conversion to Schedule 13D would be the document to watch for any change in intent.

Filing language follows SEC passive‑investor disclosure rules and names affiliated Vanguard entities.

The statement discloses dispositive arrangements involving Vanguard Portfolio Management LLC and affiliates, and clarifies which Vanguard business units exercise voting or dispositive authority. The filing notes that other Vanguard subsidiaries with disaggregated holdings are not included in this count.

Material changes in ownership or voting power would require an amended filing; timing and cash‑flow treatment are not specified in the excerpt.

Schedule 13G regulatory
"Schedule 13G filing by Vanguard Portfolio Management"
A Schedule 13G is a formal document that investors file with the government when they acquire a large ownership stake in a company, usually for investment purposes rather than control. It helps keep the public informed about who owns significant parts of a company's shares, which can influence how the company is managed and how investors make decisions. Filing this schedule is important for transparency and understanding the ownership landscape of publicly traded companies.
Beneficially owned financial
"Amount beneficially owned: 14387171"
Beneficially owned describes securities or assets where a person has the economic rights and control—such as the right to receive dividends and to direct voting—even if legal title is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and using a car that’s registered to someone else: you get the benefits and make decisions. Investors care because beneficial ownership reveals who truly controls value and voting power, affecting corporate decisions and takeover dynamics.
Sole dispositive power regulatory
"Sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of: 14387171"
Sole dispositive power is the exclusive legal authority to decide what happens to a security — for example, whether to sell, transfer, or retain shares — without needing anyone else’s permission. Investors care because it signals who truly controls the economic outcome of an investment: like holding the only key to a safe, the holder can realize gains or losses and may trigger regulatory reporting, insider rules, or influence over corporate ownership.
Shared voting power regulatory
"Shared power to vote or to direct the vote: 0"
Shared voting power occurs when two or more parties jointly have the right to vote or decide how a block of company shares is cast, like co-owners who must agree before moving a piece of furniture. Investors care because who controls voting rights affects board elections, major corporate decisions and takeover outcomes, and shared control can alter regulatory disclosures and the practical influence any holder has over a company’s direction and value.
