Total Return Swap financial
"reported a purchase of a Total Return Swap referencing 118,128 shares"
A total return swap is a private contract where one party pays the full economic performance of an asset (income plus price changes) to another party, while receiving a set payment such as a fixed rate or short-term interest in return. It matters to investors because it lets someone gain or shed exposure to an asset’s gains or losses without owning it, offering a way to borrow, hedge, or take leveraged positions while relying on the other party to make payments.
reference price financial
"The reference price for the Swap is $99.6819 per share."
A reference price is a single benchmark price set by an exchange or market system that serves as the starting point for trading measures such as opening auctions, daily price limits, or short-term comparisons. For investors it matters because it anchors how gains, losses and allowable price movement are calculated—like a tide level that tells you how far the market can legally or normally move from that starting point—so it affects order execution and risk management.
SOFR financial
"monthly interest to the counterparty on the financing leg of the Swap at a rate based on SOFR."
The Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) is a market benchmark that measures the cost of borrowing cash overnight using U.S. Treasury securities as collateral. Investors watch SOFR because it acts like a speedometer for short-term interest costs—affecting loan rates, bond yields and the pricing of interest-rate contracts—so movements change borrowing expenses, cash returns and the value of interest-sensitive investments.
notional shares financial
"provide an aggregate position in 18,906,130 "notional" shares."
pecuniary interest financial
"disclaims such beneficial ownership except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein."
