beneficial ownership financial

"Mr. Griffith disclaims beneficial ownership of these shares except to the extent of his pecuniary interest"

Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.

dispositive power financial

"Sole Dispositive Power 685,087.00 8 | Shared Dispositive Power 480,360.00"

Dispositive power is the authority to decide the final outcome of an asset, legal claim, contract, or corporate action — in effect the power to dispose of or resolve something. For investors it matters because whoever holds that authority can determine who gets paid, who controls an asset or vote, and how risks and returns are allocated; think of it like holding the key that lets you lock in the winner or loser in a deal.

pecuniary interest financial

"which Mr. Griffith disclaims beneficial ownership of these shares except to the extent of his pecuniary interest"

Schedule 13G regulatory

"the beneficial owner of these shares for purposes of Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934"

A Schedule 13G is a formal document that investors file with the government when they acquire a large ownership stake in a company, usually for investment purposes rather than control. It helps keep the public informed about who owns significant parts of a company's shares, which can influence how the company is managed and how investors make decisions. Filing this schedule is important for transparency and understanding the ownership landscape of publicly traded companies.
