DANAHER CORP DEL (DHR)
Institutional ownership reported to the SEC as of Q2 2026, across 32 quarters.
Institutions report 577,870,032 shares against 702,986,054 outstanding. Shares only - option lines are excluded, which is why this can be compared with the company at all. The count comes from the cover page of the company's own most recent report, so it is dated when that was filed rather than at quarter end.
Calls and puts are the parts of reported value carried in derivative lines rather than shares, and they point in opposite directions: a manager holding calls is positioned for the security, one holding puts against it - or hedging shares they already own, which is why index funds carry so many. Most sites add the two together and report one figure, which averages away the only interesting part.

Q2 2026 in brief
In Q2 2026, 2,134 managers that file Form 13F reported holding Danaher Corp Del (DHR), $111.5B in all, or about 82% of the shares outstanding. 155 managers opened a position and 219 sold out completely, against 2,198 holders the quarter before. Largest holders: Blackrock, Inc., Vanguard Capital Management Llc and Fmr Llc. Largest new positions: First Pacific Advisors, Lp ($107.6M), Canoe Financial Lp ($106.3M) and Meridiem Capital Partners Lp ($102.4M).
Q2 2026 is the latest quarter whose 13F deadline has passed. A 13F shows long US stock positions at quarter end, filed up to 45 days later; an adviser and a sub-adviser can both report the same shares.
Tender offers and delisting
Schedules TO, 13E-3 and 14D-9 and Form 25 filed in the last 180 days. Price a share is read from the filing itself where it states one plainly; a marker means we found no figure we could stand behind, and the reason is on it.

What the company announced
Form 8-K filings from the last 120 days, showing only the items worth a reader's attention. Earnings releases, exhibit attachments and general disclosures are filed constantly and are left out. Filed is when the SEC received it; event is the date the company says the thing happened.
| Filed | Event date | What | Source |

What the insiders did
Open market purchases and sales reported on Form 4 in the last 180 days. Grants, option exercises and shares surrendered to cover tax are left out: they are compensation rather than a decision to buy or sell. Where a broker filled one order in tranches the lines are summed, because it was one decision.
