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 1,242 managers reported a position. Broad where the research is deep, and shallow in the ways a 13F always is.
1,242 managers reported a position, together holding 267.3m shares, or 91.6% of the company. The 40 largest are listed. Percentages are of the 291.9m shares outstanding at 20 Apr 2026, the count in force when this quarter was measured rather than the count today.
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
- Share instrument and denominator. TE Connectivity plc's equity is called 'Ordinary Shares, Par Value $0.01' (registered under Section 12(b) as 'Ordinary Shares, Par Value $0.01', ticker TEL, NYSE), not 'common stock'. The Q3 FY2026 10-Q cover page states 289,513,228 ordinary shares OUTSTANDING as of 20 Jul 2026: this is the figure used for shares_outstanding and for every register pct_of_company. This differs from shares ISSUED: the same 10-Q's balance sheet shows 296,097,014 ordinary shares issued at 26 Jun 2026 against 6,156,342 shares held in treasury (issued minus treasury = 289,940,672, close to but not identical to the 20 Jul 2026 outstanding figure due to buybacks and other share activity between the two dates). The company also has two authorized-but-unissued classes, both showing zero outstanding: preferred shares ($1.00 par, 2 authorized) and Ordinary Class A shares (EUR1.00 par, 25,000 authorized), neither of which is a live share class.
- Fiscal periods used. TE Connectivity's fiscal year ends in late September (not December). The latest 10-K on file covers fiscal year 2025, period ended 26 Sep 2025, filed 10 Nov 2025. The latest 10-Q covers the fiscal Q3 2026 quarter ended 26 Jun 2026, filed 24 Jul 2026; this is the source for the shares-outstanding cover-page figure (as of 20 Jul 2026, the 10-Q's later cover date) and for the holdings search. The most recent DEF 14A is dated 11 Mar 2026 for the Jan 2026 annual general meeting, with beneficial-ownership figures measured as of 8 Jan 2026.
- Redomiciliation confirmed, no basis change required. During fiscal 2024 the company changed its jurisdiction of incorporation from Switzerland to Ireland: TE Connectivity Ltd. (the former Swiss parent) merged with and into TE Connectivity plc (an Irish public limited company, its then wholly owned subsidiary), with TE Connectivity plc as the surviving entity. The merger completed 30 Sep 2024 and the company has been organized under Irish law since fiscal 2025. This was a jurisdictional merger, not a share split or reclassification: no evidence was found of a change in the ordinary-share count or exchange ratio as part of the move, so all share counts in this file sit on one basis without adjustment. The company's principal executive offices are now in Galway, Ireland; its CIK (0001385157) is unchanged across the transaction.
- Holdings are empty by design, a sourced finding rather than a gap. The FY2025 10-K (period ended 26 Sep 2025) and the Q3 FY2026 10-Q (period ended 26 Jun 2026) were both searched for 'equity method', 'unconsolidated', 'joint venture', 'non-marketable', 'affiliate', 'venture', 'strategic investment', 'minority interest' and 'noncontrolling'. 'Equity method', 'unconsolidated', 'joint venture', 'non-marketable' and 'strategic investment' return zero hits in either filing. 'Noncontrolling interest' appears only in connection with First Sensor AG, a German subsidiary TE Connectivity itself majority owns and consolidates: minority shareholders of First Sensor hold a noncontrolling interest IN a TE subsidiary, which is the reverse direction from a holding TE owns in another company, and is correctly excluded as a wholly owned (majority-consolidated) operating subsidiary. No combined equity-investment balance, named investee, or private-company stake was found in either filing.
- Register cross-check against the proxy's own 5%-holder table. The 2026 proxy (based on stale Schedule 13G/A filings: Vanguard as of a 13G/A filed 29 Sep 2025, T. Rowe Price Associates as of a 13G/A filed 14 Feb 2025, BlackRock as of a 13G/A filed 23 Apr 2025) lists The Vanguard Group at 37,881,410 shares (12.8%), T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. at 18,729,181 shares (6.3%), and BlackRock Inc. at 18,450,686 shares (6.2%). The register instead uses each manager's Q2 2026 Form 13F-HR (30 Jun 2026 position date), which is more current: Vanguard's successors sum to 35,863,575 shares (12.4%), BlackRock to 27,135,147 shares (9.4%, higher than the stale 13G despite the other two managers trimming, consistent with a position increase over 2025 to 2026), and the T. Rowe Price family (both registrants, correctly rescaled from thousands) to 9,255,687 shares (3.2%, materially lower than the stale 18.7m/6.3% 13G/A figure, which is over a year old as of this research date). The stale proxy figures are not used as primary sourced numbers; the more current 13F data is.
- Self-gate check, computed exactly as the chart computes it: 12 register rows, containing one aggregate (the 18-person officers and directors group) with one member (Curtin) rolled into it. Summing every non-aggregate row at full value, plus Curtin at full value (972,592), plus the group's residual (1,695,476 minus 972,592 = 722,884), gives 109,088,754 shares against 289,513,228 shares outstanding, or 37.68%, within the expected 25 to 45 percent range.
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.
- Vanguard-affiliated 13F filers other than Vanguard Capital Management LLC and Vanguard Portfolio Management LLC (for example Vanguard Advisers Inc, Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Co, Vanguard Global Advisers) were not individually checked for TEL holdings within the time budget; if they hold TEL shares, the true Vanguard family total is somewhat higher than the 35,863,575 shares used here.
- Whether any TE Connectivity equity investments or joint ventures exist below the 10-K/10-Q disclosure threshold (for example minority stakes disclosed only in a segment footnote or not disclosed at all): neither filing named any such position, and no combined 'other investments' style balance was found to caveat.
- TE Connectivity's Q4/full-year FY2026 10-K was not yet filed as of 18 Aug 2026 (fiscal year end is late September), so no more recent annual disclosure exists to check.
- Dollar values for the two insider register rows (Curtin and the 18-person group) are null: the proxy's beneficial ownership table gives share counts only, no dollar value, and no share price as of the 8 Jan 2026 measurement date was independently sourced, so a value was not estimated rather than guessed.
- Institutional holders below FMR LLC (for example Northern Trust, Bank of America, Charles Schwab Investment Management, Wellington Management) were not individually checked; the ten institutional rows plus two insider rows already satisfy the brief's top 8 to 12 target.
