Reported totals, quarter ended 2026-06-30
211 reporting managers held 19,100,742 shares, reported value $515,389,050 exactly as filed. Values are position values transcribed from the filings, not current market prices.

Shares outstanding check: 458,824,000 shares reported by the issuer (SEC XBRL, period ended 2026-07-31). Reported 13F shares equal 4.2% of that figure. This page passed the publication sanity gate before listing.
BF-A in this quarter's filings
Concentration check: the largest reported position, Lindsell Train Ltd with 2,134,789 shares, is 11.2% of all shares reported for BF-A this quarter. The five largest reporting managers together account for 45.6% of the reported total, so the headline total is spread across a broad manager base rather than a few holders.
Reported quarter-over-quarter change: the reporting-manager count rose by 3 versus the quarter ended 2026-03-31, and reported shares moved +3.94% (+724,798 shares). That is a comparison of two filing snapshots, not a record of trades on any single day.
Shares-outstanding cross-check: reported 13F shares equal 4.2% of the issuer share count used at the publication gate (458,824,000 shares, issuer period ended 2026-07-31). The gate publishes a ticker only when that relationship is plausible; lending chains can push reported totals above a simple ownership share, which is why the figure is a sanity check and not an ownership percentage.

What this page is and is not

Managers file up to about 45 days after quarter-end, so these figures describe reported positions as of the quarter-end date, not holdings today. 13F lists reportable long positions from managers above the SEC reporting threshold and omits short positions entirely.
