GATES INDUSTRIAL CORPORATION PLC
Gates Industrial Corporation plc was a public limited company incorporated in England and Wales on 25 September 2017, registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under CIK 0001718512 and IRS Employer Identification Number 98-1395184. Its principal executive offices were located at 1144 Fifteenth Street, Denver, Colorado 80202, United States. Gates Industrial Corporation plc was the top-tier holding company of the Gates group, a global manufacturer of engineered power transmission and fluid power products, including belts, hoses and related components supplied to automotive, industrial and replacement-parts markets worldwide.
The company’s ordinary shares began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol GTES following its initial public offering in January 2018. For the fiscal year ended 31 December 2025, the Gates group reported consolidated net sales of 3,443.2 million US dollars and net income attributable to shareholders of 251.4 million US dollars, according to the company’s fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 results announced on 12 February 2026. These are consolidated group figures and should not be read as the standalone results of any individual subsidiary.
On 20 July 2026, following a statutory scheme of arrangement sanctioned by the High Court of Justice of England and Wales and approved by shareholders in June 2026, all ordinary shares of Gates Industrial Corporation plc were cancelled and exchanged for an equivalent number of common shares in Gates Industrial Corporation Ltd, a newly formed Bermuda exempted company. Gates Industrial Corporation Ltd became the new ultimate holding company of the Gates group and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the same ticker, GTES, on 20 July 2026, continuing under the same SEC filer identity previously used by the plc. The redomiciliation changed the group’s place of ultimate incorporation from England and Wales to Bermuda, following a board review process of more than eighteen months that had also considered the United States, the Cayman Islands and Luxembourg as alternative jurisdictions.

Shareholders of Gates Industrial Corporation plc
As a U.S.-listed public company, Gates Industrial Corporation plc discloses its ownership only through Schedule 13G and 13D filings made with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which report holders of five percent or more of outstanding ordinary shares rather than a complete shareholder register. Based on the most recent filings reviewed, the largest disclosed holder is BlackRock, Inc., which reported beneficial ownership of 29,417,072 shares (11.6%) as of 31 July 2026. FMR LLC (Fidelity) reported beneficial ownership of approximately 19,596,691 shares (7.7%) as of 30 June 2026, and The Vanguard Group, Inc. reported 13,375,910 shares (5.26%) as of 31 March 2026. Each of these holders filed on Schedule 13G, indicating a passive institutional investment rather than an intent to influence control. As of the company’s 7 April 2026 proxy record date, 254,585,738 ordinary shares were in issue. Blackstone-affiliated investment funds, which held a controlling interest of approximately 63% of the company in 2022, reduced their holding through a series of secondary offerings between 2023 and 2025 and no longer appear as a five-percent-or-more shareholder in the company’s 2026 proxy statement.
Ultimate beneficial ownership
No individual ultimate beneficial owner is identified for Gates Industrial Corporation plc. Every currently disclosed holder of five percent or more of its shares is an institutional asset manager reporting a passive stake on Schedule 13G, and no natural person has filed as, or been identified as, a beneficial owner exercising control over the company through these disclosures.
Data availability
Shareholder disclosure for this company is major shareholders only: U.S. securities law requires public reporting solely of beneficial owners crossing the five-percent threshold, so smaller and indirect holdings are not captured in this overview, and the picture may change between reporting dates.

Data availability
Corporate-linkage information for this group is partial: a broad subsidiary list is independently verifiable through SEC filings, but exact ownership percentages are not publicly disclosed for these entities, and the most recent SEC subsidiary exhibit reviewed predates the July 2026 redomiciliation, so the current structure may differ.
