Billionaire Mario Gabelli‘s GAMCO Investors recently filed a Form 13D with the Securities and Exchange Commission in which it reported acquiring, together with its affiliates, 2.38 million ordinary shares of Fleetmatics Group Plc (NYSE:FLTX), which amass 6.08% of the company’s outstanding stock. Out of the aggregate amount, GAMCO solely owns 644,759 shares, which represent 1.65% of the company’s float. The acquisition represents a new addition to GAMCO’s portfolio.
Fleetmatics Group is a holding company that provides a variety of mobile workforce solutions for service-based enterprises. Recently, the company announced signing an agreement with Verizon Communications, upon which Verizon will buy Fleetmatics Group for $60 per share, or around $2.4 billion in total. There is little upside in a merger-arb play for the average investor at this point, as shares currently trade at $59.96. However, given its large position, GAMCO stands to make hundreds of thousands of dollars, having acquired its position at a more attractive average price.
Out of the 749 hedge funds that we track which filed 13F’s for the June quarter, 11 were bullish on Fleetmatics Group Plc (NYSE:FLTX) at the end of June, down by one from the end of the previous quarter. Among the biggest investors during the quarter were Jim Simons’ Renaissance Technologies, which held a position valued at $25.92 million, and Vivek Mehta and Aaron Husock’s ShearLink Capital, with a position worth around $10.76 million. Other smart money owners of the stock included Ken Griffin’s Citadel Investment Group, George Hall’s Clinton Group, and Edward Goodnow’s Goodnow Investment Group.
