## Superinvestors (SEC 13F-HR, Q2 2026)
2 of 80 tracked investors hold FIS. Each row is the investor's latest 13F; change is vs their prior-quarter share count.
| Investor | Firm | % of portfolio | Value | Change |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mason Hawkins | Southeastern Asset Management | 1.56% | $29.9M | Reduced -7.0% |
| Dodge & Cox Funds | Dodge & Cox | 1.00% | $1.91B | Unchanged |

## Insider purchases (SEC Form 4, open-market, last ~7 months)
3 purchases, $172K. Private placements, offerings, dividend reinvestment and employee stock purchase plan buys are excluded.
| Trade date | Insider | Role | Shares | Value | Avg price | Insider type |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-10-15 | Goldstein Jeffrey A | Director | 1,585 | $58K | 36.4 | Routine (bought in Apr & Jul & Oct each year 2023–2025) |
| 2026-07-15 | Goldstein Jeffrey A | Director | 1,386 | $57K | 41.39 | Routine (bought in Apr & Jul & Oct each year 2023–2025) |
| 2026-04-15 | Goldstein Jeffrey A | Director | 1,197 | $57K | 47.39 | Routine (bought in Apr & Jul & Oct each year 2023–2025) |
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.
