Insights

Corporate Governance Analyst

Redemption returned principal and removed the reported holding.

The reported Series A preferred position of 1,200,000 shares was redeemed at $25.00 per share on 10/02/2025, returning capital plus accrued dividends to the holder. The filing records the position as held directly for a client, with the manager disclaiming beneficial ownership beyond pecuniary interest.

This change reduces the manager's indirect exposure to that security class and removes any ongoing Section 16 reporting obligation for these shares; watch for any subsequent filings if proceeds are reinvested or if similar instruments are issued within the next quarter.
