Insights
Stable passive stake: combined holders report a 3.68% position with no change over the quarter.
The filing shows a combined beneficial holding of 1,321,110 shares, equal to 3.68% of the Series C class on a 35,853,250 share base. The report explicitly states there was no change in ownership from December 31, 2025 to March 31, 2026, indicating a stable, passive position during that period.
Holder voting lines show most power is shared rather than sole, which typically reflects fund-managed or collective voting arrangements. Subsequent filings would reveal any disposition activity if holder decisions change.
Form categorizes the report as a joint beneficial ownership disclosure under Section 13.
The schedule is a joint Schedule 13G/A with an attached joint filing agreement signed May 15, 2026. It lists precise sole and shared voting and dispositive powers for each reporting person, consistent with passive investor reporting conventions.
Filing language notes ownership of 5 percent or less and includes the issuer CUSIP 36164V800. Any future change in percentage or control status would require amendment or different reporting classification.

"A joint Schedule 13G/A filed by Southeastern Asset Management, Inc.;"
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.
Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.
