- Majority ownership disclosed: Sit Entities are reported as beneficial owners of 2,230,943 shares (53.0%) of FMY, a material, controlling stake.
- Shared voting and dispositive power: The reporting persons disclose clear authority to vote and dispose of the shares, indicating practical influence over corporate actions.
- Holdings are in client accounts: Shares are held for clients, indicating the position may reflect client mandates rather than the firms' proprietary investment intent.
- No sole ownership by reporting persons: Reporting persons report 0 sole voting and dispositive power, which may complicate attribution and decision-making transparency.
Insights
TL;DR: The Sit Entities control a majority stake (53.0%) via client accounts, giving them de facto control of FMY's voting outcomes.
The disclosed 53.0% beneficial ownership is material and indicates the reporting persons, through shared voting and dispositive power, can influence governance and major corporate actions. Because the shares are held in client accounts with shared power rather than sole ownership, the ownership may reflect discretionary client mandates rather than direct proprietary positions by the reporting firms. The amendment does not provide the detailed recent transaction entries (Exhibit A is referenced but not shown here), which limits the ability to assess whether holdings increased, decreased, or were reallocated among client accounts during the prior 60 days.
TL;DR: Majority stake by advisory entities can materially affect board elections and policy decisions, but ownership is via client accounts.
Holding a majority of outstanding shares (53.0%) is governance-significant: these reporting persons can substantially influence shareholder votes, board composition, and certain corporate approvals. The filing clarifies that power is shared and that no directors or executive officers of SIA or SFI hold shares directly, which suggests control is exercised through client mandates rather than direct insider ownership. The lack of included transaction details in Exhibit A constrains assessment of intent, timing, and whether the position is passive or strategic.
