These derivatives don’t always have to give the holder the actual right to own the underlying shares to be included in the calculation - simply financial exposure to an issuer may be reportable. Conceptually, a holder could have over 100% exposure to an issuer, through a mix of direct holdings of a security and cash-settled financial derivatives.
