The IDX employer grouping recorded $1,211,200 in itemized individual contributions in the 2012 FEC cycle, according to FEC.gov aggregates. Those dollars arrived in 54 contributions from four donors. IDX is the matched employer string, not an index product and not an expansion of the letters. This page joins that short key to the 2012 two-year window so a tiny donor count can sit beside a seven-figure total without being mistaken for a workforce census.
Key figures
- IDX × 2012 equals $1,211,200 in itemized individual contributions.
- Four donors made 54 contributions in that cell.
- 2012 is about 18.8% of the grouping’s $6,459,643 all-cycle total.
- IDX is a self-reported employer string, not a PAC line.
- The page is a two-table join, not a motive claim.
Four identities at the IDX–2012 crosswalk
Most employer-cycle pages spread dollars across dozens of names. This one does not. Four donors account for the entire $1,211,200. Fifty-four separate itemized contributions still sit in the count, so the money did not arrive as four single lines. The join is still only those rows whose employer text rolled up to IDX and whose dates fall in 2012. Drop either filter and the dollar figure no longer applies.
Across every cycle stored for this grouping, LobbyVault shows $6,459,643. The 2012 window is about 18.8% of that running total. A high cycle share paired with four filers is a concentration statistic, not a ranking of tickers and not a claim that a company treasury wrote the checks. Other years under the same three-letter key are not imported onto this page.
What a three-letter employer key can and cannot mean
FEC employer fields are free text. IDX could be a legal name, a d/b/a, or a shorthand a filer used once. The packet does not expand the acronym. Cite the grouping as labeled. Neighboring keys with similar letters are different pages. Merging them by intuition would invent a combined total this packet does not contain.
Because four donors dominate the 2012 cell, the page is closer to a small set of contributor identities than to a shop floor. People who listed a longer legal name never reach this key and are absent from the $1,211,200 by construction. The industry hub still holds the $6,459,643 multi-cycle total, which can include other years and, potentially, other filers.
Treat that $6,459,643 figure as the denominator for the 18.8% share, not as a company valuation. A 2014 IDX join, if you open it, has its own donor count and must not inherit the four-donor fact from 2012.

Questions
- How much FEC money is tied to IDX in 2012?
- LobbyVault’s FEC.gov aggregates show $1,211,200 in itemized individual contributions for the IDX grouping in the 2012 cycle, from 54 contributions and 4 donors. The sum is not a corporate PAC total.
- Why are there only four IDX donors in 2012?
- The aggregate counts 4 donor identities matching this employer key in that cycle. Other people may have listed a longer legal name that does not roll up to IDX. This prose does not name the four people.
- What is the all-cycle IDX total?
- The grouping total stored across cycles is $6,459,643. The 2012 amount of $1,211,200 is about 18.8% of that figure. Other cycles are not broken out here.
- Does IDX mean an index fund or a company?
- The packet labels the grouping IDX as it appears in employer text and does not expand the acronym. Treat it as a matched FEC string, then open the IDX hub or the IDX 2012 overlay for the table behind the join.
