Insights

Investment Adviser Disclosure Specialist

Advisers report shared control over 8,861,311 shares, equaling 27.2% of MGF.

The filing shows Sit Investment Associates and Sit Fixed Income Advisors II exercise shared voting and shared dispositive power over the securities held in client accounts rather than holding direct beneficial ownership.

Because the percentage is calculated on 32,590,193 outstanding shares, the reported position is large enough to be material to holders and to trigger disclosure obligations under Schedule 13G/A.

Securities Compliance Analyst

Filing asserts ordinary-course investment activity and disclaims beneficial ownership under Rule 13d-4.

The certification states the securities were acquired and are held in the ordinary course of business and not to influence control, which aligns with Schedule 13G treatment rather than an activist 13D filing.

The inclusion of a joint filing agreement documents coordination between the two reporting entities for disclosure purposes.
