[SCHEDULE 13G/A] Cheesecake Factory (The) SEC Filing

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Invesco Ltd. filed Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13G for Cheesecake Factory Inc. (CAKE) covering the event date 30 Jun 2025. The filing discloses that, acting as a parent holding company to multiple investment-adviser subsidiaries, Invesco beneficially owns 1,671,102 CAKE common shares, equal to 3.4 % of the outstanding class.

• Sole voting power: 1,579,973 shares
• Sole dispositive power: 1,671,102 shares
• Shared voting/dispositive power: 0 shares

Because ownership is below the 5 % threshold, the filing is made under Rule 13d-1(b) as a passive institutional investor (types “HC, IA” checked). The certification states the shares are held in the ordinary course of business and not for the purpose of influencing control. Signature: Robert R. Leveille, Global Head of Compliance, dated 7 Aug 2025.

Positive

• Institutional support: Presence of a well-known asset manager may reassure investors about liquidity and coverage.

Negative

• Minor ownership: 3.4 % stake is below influence thresholds, limiting potential strategic benefits for other shareholders.

Insights

Portfolio Manager

TL;DR: Invesco holds a modest 3.4 % CAKE stake; passive, non-activist—limited market impact.

Invesco’s 1.67 M-share position represents a small minority interest and is disclosed under the routine 13G process, indicating no intent to influence Cheesecake Factory’s strategy or governance. The stake size provides some institutional validation but is insufficient to sway corporate actions. No comparison with prior holdings is given, so directional insight (increase or decrease) is unavailable. Overall, the filing is informational rather than catalytic and should have negligible immediate effect on valuation or liquidity.
