Key Terms

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 Voting Powerfinancial
"5 | Sole Voting Power 1,347,404.00"
Sole voting power is the exclusive right to cast votes attached to a shareholder’s stock without needing approval from anyone else. Like holding the only remote control for a TV, it lets that holder decide corporate matters such as board members, mergers, and policy changes, making it important to investors because it concentrates control and can strongly influence a company’s strategy and the value of its shares.
Sole Dispositive Powerfinancial
"7 | Sole Dispositive Power 1,377,384.00"
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.
investment advisorfinancial
"clients which Donald Smith & Co., Inc. serves as investment advisor"
An investment advisor is a person or firm that provides personalized guidance on buying, selling and managing investments and often oversees client portfolios for a fee. For investors this matters because the advisor shapes risk, costs and long-term returns, and is typically required by law to act in the client’s best interests — think of them as a financial coach or GPS that helps navigate choices and avoid costly detours.
percent of classfinancial
"Item 4. | Ownership (b) | Percent of class: 5.44%"
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.
