The employer string INNOVATIVE MARKET SYSTEMS accounts for $13,651,473 in the 2012 election cycle, according to FEC.gov aggregates on LobbyVault. That slice is 89 contributions from 1 donor. The all-cycle total for the same string is $1,364,633,080. Cycle 2012 is 1.0% of that parent book. A sibling join covers 2014 at $23,244,329 from the same one-donor pattern. This file is only the 2012 cut. Presidential-year lines and midterm lines stay on separate pages so the 1.0% share is not confused with the 1.7% share in 2014.

2012 as a thin slice of a very large employer grouping
One donor produced 89 itemized receipts totaling $13.7 million in 2012. Line count is higher than the 2014 sibling’s 60 lines even though 2012 dollars are lower — a reminder that contribution count and dollars are independent fields. This packet does not publish a mean. The Innovative Market Systems 2012 overlay is the row-level table.
One percent of $1,364,633,080 is still $13.7 million. The parent book is large enough that a “small share” remains a large itemized total. Do not treat 1.0% as trivial, and do not treat $13.7 million as the $1.36 billion parent.
The employer string is form text. It is not a market-share statistic and not a headcount.
Keep 2012 and 2014 on separate clocks
FEC cycle 2012 and cycle 2014 are different two-year windows. Summing this page’s $13,651,473 with the 2014 cycle total would be a reader-built subtotal of two joins, not a field in this packet. The parent industry page already holds the all-cycle $1,364,633,080.
The 2012 election cycle hub shows other 2012 employer strings, including other one-donor concentrations. This page does not rank them.
