Method
26 deals: 4 read from covered companies' own filings, and 22 that are also exits, read from the exit register so each company keeps one record. Dates and prices are as the document prints them — no conversion, no deal value worked out from a share price; a blank means the document does not say. 3 exits a buyer caused are not yet here because the register holds no named buyer or source for them.
