Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR BlackRock reports a significant 7.3% passive holding in PPBI with sole voting and dispositive power for most shares.

The Schedule 13G/A discloses a material passive stake by a large asset manager: 7,060,684 shares, equal to 7.3% of Pacific Premier Bancorp's common stock. The filing classifies the position as held in the ordinary course of business and not intended to influence control, consistent with Rule 13d-1 filings for institutional investors. The breakdown—6,843,606 shares with sole voting power and 7,060,684 shares with sole dispositive power—clarifies BlackRock's unilateral ability to buy or sell these shares without shared authority.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR This disclosure is a routine institutional ownership report, signaling substantial investor interest but asserting no control intent.

The amendment reiterates BlackRock's status as a Delaware reporting person holding over 5% of PPBI. The certification that the holdings are not for the purpose of changing control and the absence of shared voting power imply a passive investment posture. Exhibits listed (Power of Attorney; Item 7) are standard attachments for parent/subsidiary identification and authority to sign.
