## Superinvestors (SEC 13F-HR, Q2 2026)
3 of 80 tracked investors hold APO. Each row is the investor's latest 13F; change is vs their prior-quarter share count.
| Investor | Firm | % of portfolio | Value | Change |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Leon Cooperman | Omega Family Office | 4.46% | $158M | Unchanged |
| Chase Coleman | Tiger Global Management | 1.34% | $322M | Reduced -17.3% |
| Thomas Gayner | Markel Group | 0.91% | $120M | Unchanged |

## Insider sales (SEC Form 4, open-market, last ~7 months)
0 of 3 under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan (scheduled in advance). Unplanned sales were timed by the insider.
| Trade date | Insider | Role | Shares | Value | % of holdings sold | 10b5-1 plan | Insider type |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-08-14 | Kelly Martin | Chief Financial Officer | 3,000 | $423K | 0.7% | No | Routine (sold in Feb each year 2023–2025; this trade is outside those months) |
| 2026-05-27 | Zito John P. | Co-President (see Remarks) | 48,644 | $6.4M | 1.6% | No | Too little history (no open-market trades in 2023–2025) |
| 2026-05-14 | Kelly Martin | Chief Financial Officer | 7,000 | $943K | 1.6% | No | Routine (sold in Feb each year 2023–2025; this trade is outside those months) |
% of holdings sold = shares sold ÷ (shares sold + all holdings the insider reported on that Form 4, direct and through trusts).
Insider type follows Cohen, Malloy & Pomorski (Journal of Finance, 2012). An insider who traded the stock in the same calendar month in each of the past three years is a routine trader; one who traded in each of those years without such a pattern is an opportunistic trader. In their study, trades by opportunistic insiders predicted future returns and trades by routine insiders did not. Counts open-market purchases and sales only (SEC Form 4 codes P and S) by that insider in that company. Not investment advice.
