beneficially owned financial

"Item 4. | Ownership (a) | Amount beneficially owned: 2,601,598"

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.

shared voting power financial

"(ii) Shared power to vote or to direct the vote: 1,809,760"

Shared voting power occurs when two or more parties jointly have the right to vote or decide how a block of company shares is cast, like co-owners who must agree before moving a piece of furniture. Investors care because who controls voting rights affects board elections, major corporate decisions and takeover outcomes, and shared control can alter regulatory disclosures and the practical influence any holder has over a company’s direction and value.

shared dispositive power financial

"(iv) Shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of: 2,601,598"

Investment Advisers Act of 1940 regulatory

"APLP is an investment adviser registered under section 203 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940."

A U.S. federal law that sets rules for people and firms who give investment advice, requiring them to register with regulators, be honest about conflicts, keep records, and follow basic standards of care. It matters to investors because those rules act like licensing and consumer protections — similar to having safety standards for a mechanic — helping ensure advisers act in clients’ financial interests and reducing the risk of fraud or misuse of funds.

discretionary clients financial

"The shares reported herein have been acquired on behalf of discretionary clients of APLP."
