The full register, from 13F filings
The Register tab above is hand research: a dozen holders, each traced to the filing it came from. This asks the same question of the whole market for the quarter ended 31-mar-2026, where 765 managers reported a position. Broad where the research is deep, and shallow in the ways a 13F always is.
765 managers reported a position, together holding 320.8m shares, or 106.2% of the company. The 40 largest are listed. Percentages are of a share count taken later than this quarter, because the count in force at the snapshot is not published as a structured fact for this company. Where the count has moved since, the figures are off by that much.
This adds up to more than the whole company, and that is what the filings say. A 13F total can exceed 100% because the same share can be reported twice: when a holder lends stock, the borrower sells it to someone else, and both the lender's manager and the new buyer's manager report it. The gap tracks how heavily a stock is shorted. It is a property of 13F rather than a fault in this data, so it is shown as filed, and it cannot be used as evidence that a particular holder's stake is large.
Built from 13F filings, which report US listed, long, US custodied positions only. A register from this source is a floor rather than a level: a holder's true position can be far larger, as BlackRock's ASML stake shows at 1.28m shares in a 13F against 26.3m in its 13G/A. Holdings held through derivatives, outside US custody, or below a manager's reporting obligation do not appear. Where a holder is marked as a family, its total sums several separate filing entities and describes something no single filing describes; the constituent entities and their share counts are listed so the total can be checked. That roll-up can legitimately exceed the family's own Schedule 13G, because a 13G is filed by one legal entity: Vanguard reports Alphabet through ten advisory entities, and The Vanguard Group Inc itself reported zero after its January 2026 disaggregation.
What a reader needs to know to read these numbers
- RALLIANT SEPARATION: Fortive is the SURVIVING parent, not the separated entity (Fortive itself was originally spun off from Danaher in 2016, but that direction is not relevant to this current separation). On 28 June 2025 (the 'Distribution Date'), Fortive completed the separation of its former Precision Technologies segment 'by distributing to Fortive shareholders on a pro rata basis ALL of the issued and outstanding common stock of Ralliant Corporation ... the entity incorporated to hold the PT businesses,' per Fortive's Q2 2026 10-Q (period ended 3 Jul 2026, filed 29 Jul 2026, https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1659166/000165916626000034/ftv-20260703.htm), NOTE 2, Discontinued Operations. This is a FULL pro-rata distribution: Fortive retained NO equity interest in Ralliant. Confirmed independently: (a) searches of the same 10-Q for 'equity interest in Ralliant' and 'investment in Ralliant' returned zero hits; (b) Ralliant does not appear anywhere in Exhibit 21.1 (subsidiaries list) of the FY2025 10-K (filed 25 Feb 2026, https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1659166/000165916626000007/exhibit211-subsidiariesofr.htm); (c) the only ongoing Fortive/Ralliant financial linkage disclosed is a Tax Matters Agreement and Transition Services Agreements generating small non-equity receivables ($4.9 million as of 3 Jul 2026, primarily Ralliant tax-matters receivables) and a one-time $1.15 billion 'Ralliant Dividend' cash payment Ralliant made to Fortive before the Distribution Date, none of which is equity ownership. Per the brief's rule, this is recorded here as a NOTE with NO holding row (a null-shares row would misstate a completed full exit as an unsized current holding).
- OTHER EQUITY INVESTMENTS: Fortive's FY2025 10-K (period ended 31 Dec 2025, filed 25 Feb 2026) describes equity investments accounted for under the measurement-alternative or equity method, but discloses only a combined 'Other assets' balance of $375.5 million (2025) / $348.4 million (2024) that ALSO includes operating lease right-of-use assets, contract assets, and deferred tax assets; no individual investee is named and no separate equity-investments carrying value is broken out from that combined caption. There was no loss from equity investments during FY2025 ($0), versus $39.4 million in FY2024 and $17.3 million in FY2023 (recorded within Other non-operating expense, net); no investee is named for these losses either. Per the brief's rule against sizing a combined, unnamed bucket, no holding row is created for this. Exhibit 21.1 of the FY2025 10-K (https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1659166/000165916626000007/exhibit211-subsidiariesofr.htm) was checked for an ownership-percentage column (the technique that worked for Quest Diagnostics and PPG in earlier chunks); it is a bare 'Company Name / Jurisdiction of Formation' list of wholly owned subsidiaries with no percentage column and no joint-venture entries, a genuine negative rather than evidence of looking in the wrong place.
- The FY2025 10-K's risk-factor boilerplate references 'joint ventures and other strategic relationships' only in generic risk language (11 hits), never naming a specific JV; no joint-venture holding was found anywhere in the 10-K or 10-Q.
- Capital Group family checked and found to hold ZERO Fortive shares: 10 Capital Group-affiliated Q2 2026 (period 30 Jun 2026) 13F filings were checked directly by CUSIP 34959J108 (Capital World Investors 0001422849, Capital International Investors 0001562230, Capital Research Global Investors 0001422848, Capital International, Inc./CA 0000895213, Capital Group Investment Management Pte. Ltd. 0001939970, Capital Group Private Client Services, Inc. 0001857666, Capital International Ltd /CA/ 0001065350, Capital International Sarl 0001065349, plus parent-level registrants Capital Group Companies, Inc. 0000732812 and Capital Group International, Inc. 0000949308, both of which filed Form 13F-NT for Q2 2026). None holds Fortive. data/registers/FTV.json (the 31 Mar 2026 snapshot) also carries no Capital Group entry at all, consistent with this finding; per the chunk-prompt's warning that this register file 'can also be incomplete, omitting Capital Group and T. Rowe entirely,' the Capital Group absence was independently verified here rather than assumed from the snapshot. Not recorded as a register row since the true figure is zero, not merely small or unsized.
- Both T. Rowe Price SEC registrants were checked per the brief's instruction: T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (CIK 0000080255) holds the large position recorded as its own row above; T. Rowe Price Investment Management, Inc. (CIK 0001897612) holds a separate, much smaller position of 40,248 shares ($2,459,000, 0.013% of the company) that does not reach this register's top-8-to-12 threshold and is not its own row; the two are never summed since they are separate SEC registrants under the brief's one-instrument-one-basis and no-double-counting rules.
- Company has a single class of common stock; no dual-class structure and no founder/family control block (Fortive's own IPO and later separations, including from Danaher in 2016 and of Ralliant in 2025, left no dual-class residue).
- Self-gate computed from this final file: 12 register rows (Dodge & Cox, Vanguard family, BlackRock, T. Rowe Price Associates, Viking Global, State Street, Flossbach von Storch, Geode, Invesco, Barrow Hanley, the current-officers/directors aggregate, and James A. Lico; no row rolls up into another, so every row counts at full value per the chart's own arithmetic), totaling 208,653,695 shares, against shares_outstanding 302,017,052 = 69.09% of the company. This is well above the brief's 55% flag threshold, so it was checked for the three usual causes and none was found: every institutional row is the same CUSIP 34959J108 Fortive Corp common stock read directly from each holder's own 13F-HR (T. Rowe Price's figure converted from its as-filed thousands and cross-checked against the implied per-share price), all ten institutional rows price within a tight $60.88-$61.16/sh band as of 30 Jun 2026, no holder appears twice (Vanguard is one family row summed from 8 successor entities under a parent 13F-NT, Capital Group is excluded entirely as a verified zero rather than double-counted, and the two T. Rowe registrants were kept as separate, unsummed entities with only the larger recorded as a row), and the five largest institutional rows independently cross-check against the proxy's own (stale, 13G-based) 5%-owner table figures for Dodge & Cox, Vanguard, BlackRock, Viking Global and T. Rowe Price, which track closely despite using an entirely different source and an earlier date. Fortive's institutional-heavy, low-float shareholder base (the proxy's own 5%-owner table lists five institutions holding a combined ~48% before any other institution or insider is counted) appears to be a genuine feature of this stock rather than an artifact, similar to the accepted high reading previously found on Flex Ltd. (58.72%) and Domino's Pizza in this same database.
- shares_outstanding (302,017,052) is the 24 Jul 2026 cover-page count from the Q2 2026 10-Q, which is AFTER the 28 Jun 2025 Ralliant separation, so it is on the correct post-separation basis; all register share counts are 30 Jun 2026 13F snapshots, also entirely post-separation, so every count in this file (numerator and denominator) is on one consistent post-separation basis. Note the share count fell from 313.4 million at 31 Dec 2025 to 302.0 million at 24 Jul 2026, reflecting the Special Share Repurchase Program funded by the $1.15 billion Ralliant Dividend cash (up to $550 million authorized, $66.7 million remaining as of 3 Jul 2026) plus the General Share Repurchase Program (17.7 million shares remaining authorized); this is buybacks, not a further separation.
- Current price used for market_cap_usd is a live intraday quote (Nasdaq API, $59.13, 19 Aug 2026 3:43pm ET, FTV trades on the NYSE not Nasdaq despite the API endpoint's name) multiplied by the 24 Jul 2026 cover-page share count (302,017,052); the two dates are about four weeks apart because no single filing carries both a current price and a current share count. FTV's 52-week range is $46.54-$64.56, so $59.13 is within its normal range for the period.
Looked for, not found
Recorded rather than filled in. Each of these is a place where a number could have been invented and was not.
- No 13D or 13G filed directly against Fortive stock was searched independently of the proxy's own 5%-owner table and the 13F sweep performed here, so any strategic or sovereign holder below the ~2.86% threshold of the smallest institutional row included (Barrow Hanley) and outside the named institutions checked would be missed.
- The combined $375.5 million (FY2025) 'Other assets' balance (operating lease ROU assets, contract assets, deferred tax assets, and other investments including equity investments) cannot be split among individual investees from any public disclosure found; no single investee is named in the 10-K or 10-Q, so none can be sized as a separate holding.
- Market cap is a computed figure (live price times the 24 Jul 2026 share count), not a figure read directly off one page that states market cap; see the note on the roughly one-month gap between those two dates.
- The five former named executive officers listed in the proxy's ownership table other than James A. Lico (McLaughlin, Schwarz, Walker, Newcombe) are not individually sized as register rows here since each holds well under 1% of the company; their figures are recorded in the aggregate row's method_note for completeness rather than as separate rows.
