American Depositary Sharesfinancial
"Title of class of securities: American Depositary Shares, or ADSs, each representing twenty-five common shares"
American depositary shares (ADSs) are a way for investors in the United States to buy shares of foreign companies without dealing with international markets directly. They represent ownership in a foreign company's stock and are traded on U.S. stock exchanges, making it easier for American investors to buy, sell, and own parts of companies from around the world.
beneficially ownedfinancial
"Amount beneficially owned: See the responses to Item 9 on the attached cover pages."
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.
sole dispositive powerfinancial
"Sole Dispositive Power 131,628,075.00 6 | Shared Dispositive Power 0.00"
Sole dispositive power is the exclusive legal authority to decide what happens to a security — for example, whether to sell, transfer, or retain shares — without needing anyone else’s permission. Investors care because it signals who truly controls the economic outcome of an investment: like holding the only key to a safe, the holder can realize gains or losses and may trigger regulatory reporting, insider rules, or influence over corporate ownership.
parent holding companyfinancial
"Identification and Classification of the Subsidiary Which Acquired the Security Being Reported on by the Parent Holding Company"
percent of classfinancial
"Percent of class based on 1,849,190,667 common shares outstanding"
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.
