Insights

Financial Analyst

TL;DR Significant passive stake: 13.8% of PAR held by a large institutional adviser, reported as not for control.

T. Rowe Price Investment Management, Inc. discloses ownership of 5,600,644 shares, a sizeable 13.8% position that must be considered by investors when assessing shareholder base concentration. The filing shows almost all shares are held with sole voting and dispositive power, indicating centralized voting influence within the reporting entity for this stake. The statement that holdings are in the ordinary course and not intended to influence control clarifies the filer’s posture but does not change the economic significance of the position.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR A substantial institutional holding disclosed with an explicit certification that it is not for control.

The Schedule 13G/A identifies the filer as an investment adviser and includes the required certification that the securities were not acquired to influence control. From a governance perspective, the filing informs the market of a concentrated institutional holder with sole voting authority over most reported shares. The disclosure meets regulatory requirements and provides transparency about ownership and voting power without asserting activist intent.
