Governance Specialist

Stake size triggers disclosure but not control status.

At 6.3% beneficial ownership, the holder is above the 5% reporting threshold but the filing describes Earnest Partners as an investment adviser with client accounts; no single client exceeds 5% per the statement. The filing does not assert control or a change in board representation.

Watch for any Form 13D or Form 4 filings that would indicate active engagement or personnel changes; none are included in this amendment.

3 terms

Schedule 13G/A regulatory

"Amendment No. 6 to Schedule 13G filing (beneficial ownership disclosure)"

A Schedule 13G/A is an amended public filing with the U.S. securities regulator that updates a previous Schedule 13G, disclosing when an individual or group holds a substantial (typically over 5%) stake in a company and is claiming a passive, non‑controlling intent. Investors monitor these updates because rising or falling holdings can signal changing confidence, potential future moves, or shifts in voting power — like watching a public ledger where large shareholders quietly adjust their positions.

Beneficially owned financial

"Amount beneficially owned: 4,875,165.00 (b) Percent of class: 6.3%"

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 dispositive power regulatory

"Sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of: 4,875,165.00"

Sole dispositive power is the exclusive legal authority to decide what happens to a security — for example, whether to sell, transfer, or retain shares — without needing anyone else’s permission. Investors care because it signals who truly controls the economic outcome of an investment: like holding the only key to a safe, the holder can realize gains or losses and may trigger regulatory reporting, insider rules, or influence over corporate ownership.
