Invesco Reports 5.1% Textron Holding For Clients As Shares Trail S&P 500

Invesco reported a 5.1% holding in Textron, which makes aircraft, helicopters, defense systems and industrial products, in a passive ownership disclosure filed Tuesday. The position belongs to its investment advisers' clients, and the manager certified that it was not held to change or influence the company's control.

Clients Own The Economic Interest

The disclosure covered 8,853,800 common shares as of September 30, 2026. Invesco reported the holding in its role as parent of the investment advisers, whose clients hold the shares.

Those clients are entitled to dividends and money from share sales. No individual client has economic ownership exceeding 5% of the securities reported.

Invesco had sole voting authority over 8,843,790 shares and sole authority to sell or otherwise dispose of all 8,853,800 shares. It certified that the securities were bought and held as part of ordinary business activity.

Textron Trails The Benchmark

TXT shares had returned 0.33% this year as of Tuesday's original report, compared with about 10% for the S&P 500. Textron's market value was $14.5 billion as of Tuesday at 5:38 p.m. ET.

Textron reported third-quarter revenue of $3.75 billion and earnings of $270 million. Its operations extend beyond aircraft: Textron Aviation builds and services Cessna and Beechcraft business jets and turboprops, while Bell supplies military and commercial helicopters and tiltrotor aircraft.

Textron Systems makes unmanned aircraft, armored vehicles, marine craft and Lycoming piston engines. Its industrial operations include Kautex automotive plastic fuel systems, golf cars, utility vehicles and turf equipment. The finance arm lends mainly to customers buying Textron aircraft and Bell helicopters.

For 2025, Textron generated $14.8 billion in revenue, about 27% of it from U.S. Government contracts. It employed approximately 34,000 people worldwide as of January 3, 2026.

The reported 5.1% therefore describes Invesco's ownership-reporting position across client holdings; the dividends and sale proceeds belong to those clients.
