KKR and affiliated reporting persons report aggregate beneficial ownership of 15,709,380 shares, based on 121,268,398 outstanding shares, representing ~13.0% of the issuer. The filing discloses two swap-related transactions: a June swap (57,348 notional shares at $71.07) and an August swap with Nomura referencing 1,874,538 shares with an irrevocable election for physical settlement. These derivatives increase KKR's economic exposure and create a pathway to actual share delivery, which would affect ownership metrics upon settlement.
TL;DR: The mix of direct holdings and large physical-settlement swaps is governance-relevant and materially increases KKR's potential influence.
The filing shows direct holdings (15,321,010 by KKR Hawaii Aggregator L.P. and 388,370 by MH Sub I, LLC) and aggregated reporting person control of 15,709,380 shares.
