Reported is every lot on the person's own Forms 3, 4 and 5 — direct and through trusts. Beneficial is the figure stated on the latest Schedule 13D/G cover page, which can exclude shares the person disclaims and include options exercisable within 60 days, so the two are never added together.

Earnings calls

  1. Q2 2026 Jul 15, 2026 Duato's argument was that Johnson & Johnson has already stopped being a STELARA story. He led on the quarter's beat and the raised guidance, then anchored the year on a single number — sales above $25 billion put the company on track for its first $100 billion year in a 140-year history — and framed the base under it as 28 separate platforms each above $1 billion in annual sales, no one of which the company depends on. That framing did the work when the call turned to the quarter's visible weak spot: heart recovery, where a neutral UK trial slowed Impella use, was placed as one of those 28 and declared temporary, fully addressable and irrelevant to the growth trajectory. What he asked investors to carry away was not the second quarter but the shape of the decade — a stronger second half, momentum into 2027, and double-digit growth by 2030, which he called one of the most compelling and transparent growth stories in health care.
