BAUPOST GROUP INC

Baupost Group Inc crossed with 2012

Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Baupost Group Inc and 2012 — sum to $614,900. Twenty-three itemized contributions and 2 unique donors produced it. The total is not an official organization disbursement and does not name recipients. Independent expenditures and committee transfers live in other FEC tables.

Neither the Baupost Group Inc hub nor the 2012 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. Twenty-three 2012 lines from two donor keys sit under the Baupost Group Inc legal-suffix string. The Inc. suffix is part of the stored employer text. Dropping it would point at a different key. Two identities are not a census of a Boston investment partnership. 13F holdings are not this table. BAUPOST, BAUPOST GROUP without Inc, and generic INVESTOR or HEDGE FUND occupation strings are other keys.

2.4% of the Baupost Group Inc roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $25,784,037 ($25.8 million). The 2012 slice of $614,900 is about 2.4% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 97.6%. Treating 2012 as the Baupost Group Inc FEC story would ignore that remainder.

Treat $25,784,037 as the denominator for the 2.4% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, and not proof of a multi-year political program. The industry hub is the year index for this string. This tie keeps 2012 from being folded silently into $25,784,037.

How much did Baupost Group Inc donors give in 2012?

FEC.gov aggregates show $614,900 in itemized individual contributions for the Baupost Group Inc grouping in the 2012 cycle, across 23 contributions and 2 donors. That sum is not a PAC total and not the $25,784,037 all-cycle figure.

The grouping’s all-cycle total is $25,784,037. The 2012 cell of $614,900 is about 2.4% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 97.6% on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the Baupost Group Inc hub holds other cycles; the 2012 election cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.

Is this Baupost Group Inc’s PAC or an official account?

No. $614,900 is itemized individual receipts whose employer or occupation text grouped to Baupost Group Inc. Committee PAC filings and official organization accounts sit outside this rollup unless an individual receipt itself carries the string. The key is not a hedge-fund NAICS total and not a Baupost PAC.
