- Its top-ten comparison uses the same frozen CSV baseline: 851 applications grouped by operating group versus 641 by applicant entity.
Field notes
The comparison uses a frozen CSV of 1,614 primary applications and reports the same top-ten set as 851 applications when grouped by operating groups, versus 641 by applicant entities. Its methodology counts direct or ultimate parents and reviewed common-control disclosures, while excluding shared providers or investors alone; the page cautions that undisclosed relationships could change the grouping.
