So they usually pay more attention to companies that are included in major indices. </p> <p> We can see that Evolution does have institutional investors; and they hold a good portion of the company's stock.  This suggests some credibility amongst professional investors. But we can't rely on that fact alone since institutions make bad investments sometimes, just like everyone does.  When multiple institutions own a stock, there's always a risk that they are in a 'crowded trade'. When such a trade goes wrong, multiple parties may compete to sell stock fast. This risk is higher in a company without a history of growth. You can see Evolution's historic earnings and revenue below, but keep in mind there's always more to the story. </p><figure><img height="1048" src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://images.simplywall.st/asset/chart/285223104-earnings-and-revenue-growth-1-dark-2/1765166534515?x-oss-process=image/auto-orient,1/interlace,1/resize,w_1440,h_1440/quality,q_95/format,jpg" width="1642" original-src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://images.simplywall.st/asset/chart/285223104-earnings-and-revenue-growth-1-dark-2/1765166534515"/><figcaption>OM:EVO Earnings and Revenue Growth December 8th 2025</figcaption></figure> <p> Hedge funds don't have many shares in Evolution.      Looking at our data, we can see that the largest shareholder is Kenneth Dart with 21% of shares outstanding.       Jens von Bahr is the second largest shareholder owning 11% of common stock, and Capital Research and Management Company holds about 11% of the company stock.     Jens von Bahr, who is the second-largest shareholder, also happens to hold the title of President.    </p> <p> We did some more digging and found that 6 of the top shareholders account for roughly 50% of the register, implying that along with larger shareholders, there are a few smaller shareholders, thereby balancing out each others interests somewhat.  </p> <p> While studying institutional ownership for a company can add value to your research, it is also a good practice to research analyst recommendations to get a deeper understand of a stock's expected performance.   Quite a few analysts cover the stock, so you could look into forecast growth quite easily.  </p><h2>Insider Ownership Of Evolution</h2><p> The definition of company insiders can be subjective and does vary between jurisdictions. Our data reflects individual insiders, capturing board members at the very least.  Company management run the business, but the CEO will answer to the board, even if he or she is a member of it. </p><p> I generally consider insider ownership to be a good thing. However, on some occasions it makes it more difficult for other shareholders to hold the board accountable for decisions. </p> <p> Our information suggests that insiders maintain a significant holding in Evolution AB (publ).   Insiders own kr43b worth of shares in the kr124b company. That's quite meaningful.  Most would be pleased to see the board is investing alongside them.

While this group can't necessarily call the shots, it can certainly have a real influence on how the company is run.  </p> <h2>Next Steps:</h2><p> It's always worth thinking about the different groups who own shares in a company. But to understand Evolution better, we need to consider many other factors. </p> <p> <strong>I like to dive deeper</strong> into how a company has performed in the past.
