beneficially owned financial

"Item 4. | Ownership (a) | Amount beneficially owned: 11,679,294"

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.

percent of class financial

"(b) | Percent of class: 6.3%"

Percent of class is the portion of a specific category of securities—such as a company’s common shares, preferred shares, or a bond series—that takes part in or approves a corporate action (vote, consent, tender, etc.). Investors watch this number because it reveals how much support or opposition exists within that particular shareholder group; like counting how many members of a club back a proposal, it can determine whether a plan passes or how influence is distributed.

Common Share financial

"(d) | Title of class of securities: Common Share"

A common share is a type of ownership in a company that gives the holder a claim to a portion of the company’s profits and assets. It often comes with voting rights, allowing shareholders to participate in decisions about the company’s direction. For investors, owning common shares can mean potential for growth and income, but also involves a higher level of risk compared to other types of investments.
