Notes on these figures

  • Profit over the last twelve months is well above what the business itself earned, because it includes large gains outside the business, such as on investments or from selling a business. The P/E is lower than the business alone would give.

Insiders and their shares

Purchases and sales by officers and directors, from their own Form 4 filings.

Reading the newest filings from the SEC. This part fills in on its own in a few seconds.

Major holders (over 5%)

Whoever comes to own more than 5% of a class of shares reports it to the SEC on Schedule 13D or 13G. Here is each holder's latest filing.

Holders whose latest filing says they hold 5% or less. After it they need not file again, so what they hold today is not known.

From the Schedule 13D and 13G filed with the SEC since Dec 18, 2024, when they became structured data. A holder who has filed nothing since then is not shown here. A 13D is updated within two business days of any material change, a 13G up to 45 days after the quarter of the change, so the shares are those of the filing. The large managers also appear in the 13Fs.

As brokers report them to the regulator twice a month, mid-month and at month end, published about eight business days later. A short position is shares sold borrowed and not yet bought back. The share count is the one the company's market value is figured on, from its filings. Days to cover is the shares held short over the average daily volume of the weeks between two reports.

This is not the number of shares sold short today: it measures short sales within each day's trading, and only trades made off the exchanges. Much of it is market makers, who sell shares they do not have to fill buyers' orders and cover soon after, so for a heavily traded stock the share is often around half.

10b5-1 trading plans

Since 2023 every 10-Q and 10-K says which insiders adopted or ended a trading plan (Rule 10b5-1) in the quarter: when, for how many shares, until when. A plan explains the sales that follow months before they show up on Form 4.

As the company states them in Item 9B of the 10-K and Part II, Item 5 of the 10-Q, with structured data. A plan allows sales on preset dates and prices. It does not say whether all of them will be executed.

Executive pay

From the Pay versus Performance table every company puts in its proxy statement since 2023: what the chief executive was paid, what was actually paid once the shares vest at year-end values, and how the stock did against the peer group the company itself picked.

From the proxy statement (DEF 14A) of Apr 9, 2026, as filed with the SEC with structured data. Pay in dollars. The company picks its own peer group and measure. DEF 14A

Share repurchases

How many of its own shares the company bought each quarter, at what average price, for how much, and what remains of the program its board authorized, from the table it puts in every 10-Q and 10-K.

$5.9B Repurchases over 2 quarters
  • Jun 30, 202210-Q

  • Mar 31, 202210-Q
    Amount$2.6B

From the "Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities" table of the 10-Qs and 10-Ks, read without a model. Only the quarters whose shares times average price agree with the cash the company says it paid for repurchases in its cash-flow statement are shown. The shares include those withheld for officers' taxes. A quarter with an accelerated repurchase shows the table's shares and the cash paid, without an average price.

The shareholders' vote on pay

The advisory say-on-pay vote at each annual meeting, as the company states it in the 8-K it files after the meeting: how many voted for and against the executives' pay. 90% is the norm. Under 70% proxy advisers expect the board to respond the next year.
