beneficially own financial
"may be deemed to beneficially own indirectly the Common Shares beneficially owned directly by Control Empresarial"
Beneficially own means having the economic rights and risks of a security—such as the right to receive dividends, sell the shares, or profit from price changes—whether or not your name appears on the official share register. Think of it like renting a car: you use it and reap the benefits even if the title lists someone else. Investors care because beneficial ownership determines who truly controls value, must be disclosed under securities rules, and can signal potential influence or trading activity that affects a stock’s price.
Schedule 13D regulatory
"If the filing person has previously filed a statement on Schedule 13G to report the acquisition"
A Schedule 13D is a legal document that investors file with regulators when they buy a large enough stake in a company to potentially influence its management or decisions. It provides details about the investor’s intention, ownership stake, and plans, helping other investors understand who is gaining control and what their motives might be.
percent of class financial
"Percent of class represented by amount in Row (11) 24.5 %"
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.
Mexican trust financial
"the Slim Family, which are beneficiaries of a Mexican trust that owns all of the issued and outstanding voting equity securities"
