A group of Susquehanna-related entities reported beneficial ownership of 2,712,446 shares of Avis Budget Group, Inc. (CAR), representing 7.7% of the class based on 35,192,239 shares outstanding as of May 2, 2025. The filing identifies six reporting persons — G1 Execution Services, LLC; SIG Brokerage, LP; Susquehanna Fundamental Investments, LLC; Susquehanna Investment Group; Susquehanna Portfolio Strategies, LLC; and Susquehanna Securities, LLC — and notes certain option positions included in those totals.
The Schedule 13G indicates the securities were acquired and are held in the ordinary course of business and not for the purpose of changing or influencing control. The filing also states the reporting persons may be deemed a group and that each disclaims beneficial ownership of shares owned directly by another reporting person.
Positive
Material disclosure: The group reports an aggregate stake of 2,712,446 shares (7.7%), providing transparency to the market.
Passive intent disclosed: The Item 10 certification states the securities are held in the ordinary course of business and not to influence control.
Detailed breakdown: The filing lists each reporting person and quantifies voting and dispositive power, improving clarity.
Negative
Group designation: The reporting persons "may be deemed a group," which can complicate assessments of coordinated action.
Options included in totals: The reported holdings include options for SIG Brokerage (42,300), Susquehanna Investment Group (284,200), and Susquehanna Securities (2,198,700), concentrating potential future ownership.
No affirmative rule box shown: The cover portion lists Rule 13d-1(b)/(c)/(d) options but does not explicitly indicate which rule was checked in the provided text.
Insights
TL;DR: Susquehanna entities hold a material 7.7% stake (2.71M shares) in Avis Budget; filing indicates passive intent.
The reported aggregate stake of 2,712,446 shares equals 7.7% of the 35,192,239 shares outstanding cited in the filing, which is above the 5% threshold that typically draws investor attention. The Schedule 13G format and the Item 10 certification explicitly state these shares are held in the ordinary course of business and not to influence control, indicating a passive position rather than an activist intent. The filing also discloses that portions of the reported holdings consist of options (explicitly quantified for three reporting persons), which affect the composition of the stake but are included in the reported beneficial ownership totals.
TL;DR: A coordinated filing by affiliated broker-dealers may raise governance monitoring needs but declares no control intent.
The filing names six affiliated entities and states they "may be deemed a group," while also disclaiming ownership of shares held directly by other reporting persons. That dual statement is typical when affiliated broker-dealers report aggregated positions yet preserve legal boundaries among entities. The explicit Item 10 certification that the shares were not acquired to influence control reduces immediate governance concerns, but the disclosure of sizeable option positions for SIG Brokerage, Susquehanna Investment Group and Susquehanna Securities (detailed in the filing) is relevant for monitoring potential future changes in exercise or disposition that could alter voting dynamics.
