Insights

Investment Adviser Analyst

TL;DR: Barrow Hanley discloses a 5.56% beneficial stake with sole dispositive power, filed under Schedule 13G.

The filing documents 8,109,322 shares (5.56%) beneficially owned and shows the adviser has sole dispositive power and majority sole voting power for 6,057,284 shares with 2,052,038 shares held with shared voting power. As an investment adviser (Type: IA), the firm certifies holdings are in the ordinary course of business and not for control. This is a material >5% disclosure that increases transparency about institutional positions but, by itself, does not indicate an intent to change issuer control.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR: Significant ownership disclosed; voting/dispositive splits could affect shareholder voting dynamics.

The report clarifies both voting and disposition authorities: sole dispositive power over 8,109,322 shares while voting power is split between sole (6,057,284) and shared (2,052,038). For governance purposes, these figures matter because they show where the right to direct share disposition lies and how voting influence is allocated. The certification that shares are held in the ordinary course is explicit, but the filing does not provide further detail on underlying clients or investment mandates.
