Across its top 20 institutional holders, FFIV's holder base skews toward low-concentration, low-turnover investors on average (avg. concentration score 6/100, avg. turnover score 38/100).
FFIV ranks #621 out of 37501 tracked stocks by institutional interest — one of the most closely watched names in our coverage.
FFIV is a top-conviction position for Jericho Capital Asset Management L.P. — at 7.3% of their entire disclosed 13F portfolio, it's one of their largest single bets, not just a passing allocation.
The largest dollar stake in FFIV belongs to BlackRock, Inc., but the position matters far more to Jericho Capital Asset Management L.P., who has 7.3% of their own portfolio riding on it — a reminder that the biggest holder by size and the holder with the biggest bet aren't always the same fund.
BlackRock has added to its FFIV position for two straight quarters, increasing it by $1.0B to reach $2.6B today.
Hotchkis & Wiley Capital Management LLC has trimmed its FFIV position for two straight quarters, cutting it by $539.6M while still holding $857.5M.
FFIV is down 2.8% today, but institutions show net buying of $9.2B this quarter — a divergence between today's price move and the underlying institutional flow.
FFIV posted net income of $726.5M over the trailing twelve months, and currently trades at a P/E of 32.0.

Top 5 Institutional Movers
Institutions accumulate while insiders sell
Signal Basis
Institutional 13F flows show a net value increase of approximately $9.18 billion with 488 net buyers versus 300 net sellers and 171 new positions against only 60 exits — a robust accumulation signal. However, insider activity over the past 30 days reveals 14 sell transactions totaling roughly $3.36 million with zero insider buys; the 90-day window shows 20 sells totaling $4.92 million and still no purchases, with CEO Francois Locoh-Donou and EVP Thomas Fountain both selling on August 5, 2026.
Confirmation
A subsequent 13F showing continued institutional net accumulation paired with any insider buy transactions would confirm a bullish direction.
Invalidation Risk
If institutions reverse to net distribution in the next filing period while insider selling persists, the bearish case would dominate.

See the institutional 13F filings behind this signalFFIV does not currently show a 13F-and-insider convergence signal — its insider confidence score is 0/100, below the threshold this product uses to flag combined buying pressure.
13F data as of 2026-06-30 quarterly filings. Note: many large institutions file close to the 45-day post-quarter deadline, so early-quarter flow figures can shift substantially as more filings arrive.
