Insights

Equity ownership & governance analyst

Canadian investor Van Berkom discloses a passive 5.13% stake in BrightView.

Van Berkom & Associates Inc. reports beneficial ownership of 4,858,860 BrightView common shares, or 5.13% of the class, with sole voting and dispositive power. This establishes the firm as a significant institutional holder in BrightView’s shareholder base.

The certification clarifies the position is held in the ordinary course of business and not for the purpose of changing or influencing control. That language signals a passive investment posture rather than an activist or control-seeking strategy, which typically implies less direct involvement in corporate decision-making.

Because the filing does not describe any related transactions, agreements, or governance initiatives, the main implication is transparency about a sizable institutional stake. Future ownership reports would show whether Van Berkom maintains, increases, or reduces this 5.13% position over subsequent reporting dates.
