Paramount Skydance Corporation

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 507 managers reported a position. Broad where the research is deep, and shallow in the ways a 13F always is.

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

• NEW REGISTRANT. CIK 0002041610 (Paramount Skydance Corporation) is the combined entity formed 7 Aug 2025 when Skydance Media combined with the former Paramount Global (accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control, since the Ellison Family controlled both Paramount Global and Skydance beforehand, with net assets pushed down at the Ultimate Parent's basis). No figures in this file are taken from Paramount Global's or ViacomCBS's predecessor CIK; all figures are from PSKY's own CIK 0002041610 filings (or, for the register, from each 13F filer's own CIK matched on CUSIP 69932A204, never on issuer-name string). The FY2025 10-K and Q2 2026 10-Q both present 'Successor' (post 7 Aug 2025) and 'Predecessor' (pre-merger Paramount Global) comparative periods; only Successor-period figures for PSKY itself are used here, and the SkyShowtime holdings row is explicitly labelled as sourced to the Successor-period 10-K balance.
• DUAL CLASS STRUCTURE AND DENOMINATOR CHOICE. Per the cover page of the Q2 2026 10-Q (period ended 30 Jun 2026, filed 4 Aug 2026), PSKY has two classes of common stock outstanding at 31 Jul 2026: Class A Common Stock, 31,500,087 shares, one vote per share, and Class B Common Stock, 1,090,445,692 shares, NON-VOTING and the only class that trades (Nasdaq: PSKY, CUSIP 69932A204). company.shares_outstanding uses Class B (the listed, 13F-reportable class) because every register row sourced from a 13F is necessarily a Class B holding; this is stated in pct_denominator on every register row with a percentage. Combined total shares (Class A + Class B) = 1,121,945,779; market_cap_usd is computed against this combined total (at the 19 Aug 2026 Nasdaq close of $10.60/share for Class B, applied to both classes since Class A does not trade separately and no distinct Class A market price exists) rather than against Class B alone, since market capitalization should reflect the whole company's equity.
• THE CONTROLLING FAMILY. Harbor Lights Entertainment, Inc. (f/k/a National Amusements, Inc., 'NAI') holds 100% of Class A Common Stock, the sole voting class, giving it 100% of Paramount's voting power. That is a percentage of a class, not of the company: the 10-K/A Part III beneficial ownership table (ownership as of 20 Feb 2026) shows the Harbor Lights entities holding 31,500,087 Class A shares plus 32,012,190 Class B shares, which is 63,512,277 of 1,111,741,109 shares outstanding across both classes, or 5.71% of the company. Total voting power, 5.71% of the equity. The Ellison Family (Lawrence J. Ellison and his son David Ellison, the latter Paramount's CEO and Board Chairman) indirectly controls approximately 77.5% of Harbor Lights Entertainment and is described in the Q2 2026 10-Q as 'the controlling stockholder and the ultimate parent of Paramount.' The same 10-Q discloses the Ellison Family holds approximately 47.2% of Class A and non-voting Class B Common Stock 'on a combined basis', which is the figure carried on the Ellison Family register row. RedBird Capital Partners holds Class B stock directly: per footnote 4 of the same 10-K/A table, RB Tentpole Holdings LP holds 83,640,992 Class B shares and RB Maverick LLC holds 21,208,559, plus warrants over a further 45,000,000. RedBird is separately a co-investor in Harbor Lights and in the PIPE Class B private placement tied to financing the pending WBD acquisition, and THAT indirect interest remains unquantified in the filings searched.
• THE WBD TRANSACTION HAS NOT CLOSED; NO HOLDING EXISTS. On 27 Feb 2026 Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) entered a merger agreement under which Paramount will pay WBD stockholders $31.00 per share in cash (plus a small per-day 'ticking fee' after 30 Sep 2026) to acquire all outstanding WBD shares, an equity value of $80.9 billion at signing, and will assume WBD's net debt. Per the Q2 2026 10-Q, the WBD Merger has NOT closed as of 30 Jun 2026: closing has been delayed by litigation, with the parties agreeing to postpone closing until the earlier of five days after a court ruling or 4 Jun 2027 (an automatic extension of the original 4 Mar 2027 outside date). This file therefore contains NO Warner Bros Discovery holdings row: a pending all-cash merger in which Paramount has not yet acquired any WBD shares is not a holding under this project's rules. If and when the merger closes, this file will need to be revisited and reconciled against data/research/warner-bros-discovery.json.
• HOLDINGS SIDE. The FY2025 10-K (the most recently disclosed breakdown; the Q2 2026 10-Q's Investments note was checked and does not restate or update these figures) discloses total equity-method investments of $92 million and equity investments without a readily determinable fair value of $58 million at 31 Dec 2025 (Successor), included within 'Other assets'. The equity-method balance 'principally included a 50% interest in SkyShowtime... and interests in a production studio and other media joint ventures'; only SkyShowtime is named and percentaged, so it is the only holdings row in this file, with shares and value left null per the rule against assigning a combined balance to one investee (the $92 million figure covers SkyShowtime plus unnamed others and cannot be split). The unnamed 'production studio and other media joint ventures' and the $58 million non-equity-method bucket are not sized to any individual investee and are listed in unknowns. Separately, the 10-K discloses that in November 2024 (predecessor period, before this registrant existed) the company completed the sale of its remaining 13% interest in Viacom18 to its majority partner; this is a historical exit, not a current holding, and is not included as a row.
• EXHIBIT 21 CHECKED. PSKY's FY2025 10-K Exhibit 21 subsidiaries list (as of 31 Jan 2026) was checked in full: it is a bare two-column name/jurisdiction list (hundreds of wholly owned production, broadcast and media subsidiaries) with NO ownership-percentage column of any kind, and SkyShowtime does not appear in it (consistent with it being an unconsolidated equity-method joint venture rather than a subsidiary). This is a genuine negative, not evidence of looking in the wrong place.
• REGISTER SELF-GATE, computed the way the chart computes it: 11 register rows. Nine carry a share count denominated in Class B (eight institutional 13F rows plus RedBird), and two carry shares: null because they are not single-class holdings (Harbor Lights, which holds both classes, and the Ellison Family, for which no share count is filed at all). Summed shares, null treated as 0: 189,232,983 institutional plus 104,849,551 RedBird = 294,082,534 against 1,090,445,692 Class B shares outstanding = 26.97%, which is now inside the routine 25 to 45 band this project sees on most companies. The earlier 17.35% reading on this file was low because RedBird's block had not yet been found. The remaining dispersion is real: this project's own 31 Mar 2026 register snapshot reports 507 distinct 13F filers with total_shares_reported 329,550,300, so institutional ownership here is genuine but spread thin across many mid-sized holders beyond the top eight. Every institutional row's implied price (value_usd / shares) clusters tightly at approximately $9.84 to $9.92 per share across all 8 sized 13F rows, which is the cross-check that the units are consistent. Percentages, unlike this raw share sum, are now all taken against combined shares outstanding, and the percentage total is 73.50%.
• Vanguard Group Inc (CIK 0000102909) filed Form 13F-NT (notice, no holdings) for Q2 2026, confirmed directly, so the successor entities are summed per the project's rule: all 8 entities identified from this project's own data/registers/PSKY.json snapshot were individually checked (7 hold PSKY, 1 holds zero); see the Vanguard row's method_note for the full breakdown.
• Capital Group family checked and holds ZERO PSKY shares in Q2 2026: Capital World Investors (CIK 0001422849), Capital International Investors (CIK 0001562230) and Capital Research Global Investors (CIK 0001422848) were each searched for the 'PARAMOUNT' fragment across their full Q2 2026 13F-HR info tables; none returned any match. No Capital Group row appears in the register as a result.
• NO PROXY, BUT THERE IS A BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP TABLE. No DEF 14A annual-meeting proxy has been filed by PSKY's own CIK 0002041610 (checked via EDGAR browse for type 14A; the 14A-family filings on this CIK are solicitation material aimed at the Warner Bros. Discovery contest, not a PSKY annual-meeting proxy), which fits a registrant controlled by a single holder of all the voting stock. Part III was instead furnished by amendment: Form 10-K/A filed 24 Apr 2026 (accession 0001140361-26-016758) carries Item 12, Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management, with a full two-class ownership table as of 20 Feb 2026 and its own stated denominators of 31,500,087 Class A and 1,080,241,022 Class B shares outstanding. That table is the source for the Harbor Lights and RedBird rows and for the cross-check on the Ellison Family row, and it supersedes the earlier statement in this file that no proxy 5%-owner table existed. Its 5% Stockholders section names Harbor Lights Entertainment and no one else, because that section covers 5% holders of Class A only (the sole voting class); the institutional holders in this register hold Class B and so do not appear there. No Schedule 13D or 13G has been filed against PSKY's own CIK (checked via EDGAR browse for type SC 13, no results).
• Coordinator verification. Two things on this file are unusual and both were checked rather than assumed. First, the dual-class handling is correct and is the point to preserve: `company.shares_outstanding` is the Class B count of 1,090,445,692, which is the LISTED, NON-VOTING class that every 13F row holds, while Harbor Lights Entertainment, the controlling holder of 100 per cent of the 31,500,087 Class A voting shares, carries `shares: null` with its own `pct_denominator` naming the Class A count. That is deliberate: putting a Class A block into a Class B denominated register would chart a holder at a large share of a class it holds none of, which is the defect that drew Blackstone's Schwarzman at 31 per cent of a class he did not hold. The controlling position is therefore visible as a row but is correctly excluded from the charted share total, and the voting story lives in `notes` and `share_classes`. Second, the 17.35 per cent self-gate is BELOW the project's usual 25 to 45 band, which is as much a finding as a high one and was corroborated rather than accepted: this project's own 13F-derived snapshot at data/registers/PSKY.json reports just 329,550,300 shares across 507 filers, only about 30.2 per cent of the Class B shares outstanding, so institutional 13F coverage of this recently formed registrant is genuinely thin. The nine curated rows capture 189,232,983 shares, roughly 57 per cent of all 13F-reported stock, which is normal top-of-register concentration measured against a small institutional base. The per-holder figures also corroborate against that snapshot: Lingotto 46,061,363 matching here to the exact share, Vanguard 36,574,436 there against 40,777,337 here, State Street 34,240,923 against 27,438,574, Invesco 23,585,444 against 23,925,293, UBS 20,176,825 against 26,357,669, BlackRock 17,543,696 against 16,608,652. The register is a floor rather than a level here more than usual, and the holders not re-fetched are named in `unknowns`. SUPERSEDED IN PART, and note WHY the correction was needed rather than just that it was made: the arrangement described above left Harbor Lights on the page at pct_of_company 100, and because that 100 was a percentage of Class A while every other row was a percentage of Class B, the register summed to 117.35%, i.e. the file claimed more than one whole company existed. The dual-class care taken with the shares field was correct and is kept; the same care simply had not reached the percentage field. Percentages are now all taken against combined shares outstanding, Harbor Lights reads 5.71% and rolls up into a new Ellison Family row, a RedBird row has been added from the 10-K/A, and the self-gate share sum is 26.97% rather than 17.35%.
• WHAT CHANGED IN THIS PASS AND WHY (21 Aug 2026). The register summed to 117.35%, which is impossible, and the cause was a denominator mismatch rather than a double count: Harbor Lights Entertainment was carried at pct_of_company 100, meaning 100% of the Class A voting class, while the eight institutional rows were percentages of the Class B class, so the column being added together was not measuring one thing. Every percentage in the register is now taken against total shares outstanding across ALL classes, and each row's pct_denominator names the exact figure used. Harbor Lights moves from 100 to 5.7129 (63,512,277 combined shares of 1,111,741,109) and its total voting control is preserved in prose in its method_note. The eight institutional rows move only slightly, each multiplied by 1,090,445,692 / 1,121,945,779 (for example Lingotto 4.2241 to 4.1055); no share count changed. Two rows were added from the 10-K/A Part III table and the Q2 2026 10-Q, both of which were fetched for this pass: an Ellison Family container row at the issuer's own filed 47.2% combined-basis figure, with Harbor Lights now rolling up into it because the 10-Q states the family holds its Class A stake through Harbor Lights, and a RedBird Capital Partners row at 9.4311% (104,849,551 Class B shares held directly by RB Tentpole Holdings LP and RB Maverick LLC, warrants excluded from both numerator and denominator). Finding those two rows also refuted two claims previously recorded in this file: that no proxy-style beneficial ownership table existed for this registrant, and that no RedBird share count was disclosed. The register now totals 73.50%.
