Institutions report 8,600,440 shares against 12,507,120 outstanding. Shares only - option lines are excluded, which is why this can be compared with the company at all. The count comes from the cover page of the company's own most recent report, so it is dated when that was filed rather than at quarter end.
Options share is the part of reported value carried in derivative lines rather than shares. A high figure means institutions are expressing a view on this security without owning much of it.

Five percent filings
Anyone crossing 5% of a company must say so within days - far sooner than the next quarterly holdings report. A 13D declares an intent to influence the company; a 13G is the passive version. See all activist filings →
