Insights

Affiliated venture funds report near-10% stakes constrained by a conversion blocker.

The filing shows Deer XI Ltd./Deer XI LP and two Bessemer funds each report a 9.99% beneficial ownership stake in Class B Subordinate Voting Shares, measured on a 43,284,437 share base as of March 26, 2026. The disclosure explains that counts include Class B shares issuable upon conversion of Class A Multiple Voting Shares but that an agreement (the "Beneficial Ownership Blocker") prevents actual conversions that would exceed the 9.99% threshold.

Key governance implication: the blocker maintains the reporting persons below the ownership cap; subsequent filings would reveal any change in conversion mechanics or ownership percentages.

Schedule 13G disclosure focuses on beneficial ownership and voting/dispositive powers.

The statement specifies sole voting and dispositive power figures for each reporting entity (e.g., 22,935,156 shares for Deer XI Ltd.). It clarifies the basis for percent calculations and the effect of conversion rights being conditionally limited by an agreement.

Compliance note: the filing documents the blocker and quantifies positions; any conversion or agreement change should be reflected in amended filings per applicable rules.

"agreement preventing the conversion of the Class A Shares to the extent such conversion would result"
Class B Subordinate Voting Shares financial
"Title of class of securities: Class B Subordinate Voting Shares, without par value"
Class B subordinate voting shares are a type of common stock that carry fewer or weaker voting rights than a company's primary share class, meaning holders have less influence over corporate decisions. For investors this matters because these shares often trade at different prices, can affect control of the company, and may offer similar entitlement to dividends despite reduced governance power—like holding a regular concert ticket while someone else has the VIP pass.
Class A Multiple Voting Shares corporate
"Class B Shares underlying Class A Multiple Voting Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Person"
Class A multiple voting shares are a type of stock that carries several votes per share, giving holders disproportionately more control over corporate decisions than holders of regular shares. Think of them as having extra voting tickets at a meeting: a small group can steer board appointments and strategy. For investors, this matters because voting power affects governance, takeover likelihood and can influence share value, liquidity and minority shareholder protections.
