Warner Music Group Corp.
One of the world's largest music companies, Warner Music Group records and publishes songs through labels like Atlantic Records, Warner Records, and Warner Chappell Music, working with artists heard on streaming services worldwide. It was born in 1958 when the Warner Bros. film studio launched its own record label after realizing it lost money when its actors recorded for rivals. The spark: actor Tab Hunter's hit "Young Love" was released by a competing studio's label, prompting Warner to keep music in-house.

Select a row to see that insider’s individual transactions. Sum of the holdings confirmed in the 12 months before this insider's last filing. A Form 4 reports a holding per line — held directly, or through a named trust, partnership or foundation, and in each share class separately — never a person’s total. Lines not restated in that time are left out and shown apart: an active filer restates what they still hold, so a line they did not restate is more often an entity since renamed, whose shares a successor line reports too. An amber marker means some were left out.
Net open-market activity over the last 5 years: -20.76M shares. Grants, option exercises and tax withholding are excluded — they are compensation mechanics, not decisions to buy or sell.
