beneficially owned financial

"Amount beneficially owned: 6,026,027 (b) | Percent of class: 5.3 %"

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 power to vote financial

"Number of shares as to which the person has | (i) Sole power to vote or to direct the vote: 5,759,882"

dispositive power financial

"(iii) Sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of: 6,023,682 | (iv) Shared power to dispose"

Dispositive power is the authority to decide the final outcome of an asset, legal claim, contract, or corporate action — in effect the power to dispose of or resolve something. For investors it matters because whoever holds that authority can determine who gets paid, who controls an asset or vote, and how risks and returns are allocated; think of it like holding the key that lets you lock in the winner or loser in a deal.

parent holding company financial

"If a parent holding company has filed this schedule, pursuant to (ii)(G), so indicate under Item 3(g)"

subsidiary financial

"attach an exhibit stating the identity and the Item 3 classification of the relevant subsidiary."

A subsidiary is a company that is controlled or owned by a larger company, known as the parent company. Think of it like a branch or division of a bigger organization; it operates separately but is ultimately guided by the parent. For investors, understanding subsidiaries helps clarify how a larger company is structured and where its resources and risks are concentrated.
