Leadership

SI estimate

5.5/10

What are the people in charge doing?

SI estimate 5.5/10, confidence 20 of 100 (family median).

weight 22% of this tense · 50th percentile among 29 sector filers · read for its shareholders

SI estimate Inferred, not read as filed

Why it is an estimate: It files no Form 8-K (a foreign issuer reports on Form 6-K), so officer and director changes cannot be read there; no officer or director has filed a Form 3, 4 or 5 for it in the last fifteen months, so the years in charge cannot be read, so the desk assumes the typical reading of its industry family, the median of 29 members with one.
What the record cannot read: It files no Form 8-K (a foreign issuer reports on Form 6-K), so officer and director changes cannot be read there; no officer or director has filed a Form 3, 4 or 5 for it in the last fifteen months, so the years in charge cannot be read.
How it was reasoned: family median, 29 readings behind it.
Confidence: 20 of 100
What would change it: Its next annual report on file with the inputs replaces this estimate with the filed reading.

From the record

SI estimate, not a filed reading: Magna International's leadership is put at 5.5 of 10 with a confidence of 20 of 100, because it files no Form 8-K (a foreign issuer reports on Form 6-K), so officer and director changes cannot be read there; no officer or director has filed a Form 3, 4 or 5 for it in the last fifteen months, so the years in charge cannot be read, so the desk assumes the typical reading of its industry family, the median of 29 members with one. Its next annual report on file with the inputs replaces this estimate with the filed reading.
