AI summaryWritten from 2 sources, checked claim by claim

Franklin Templeton marked Plaid Class A stock at $258.92 per share as of June 30, 2026, according to Hottub Ventures, which tracks fund marks on private companies. The figure was up 6.9% from the fund family's previous mark of $242.18 per share as of April 30, 2026, and Hottub showed a Franklin Templeton position of $26 million at the June date. The event record ties the mark to a monthly portfolio report on Form N-PORT filed with the SEC on August 27, 2026.

The SEC filing index lists the filer as Franklin Custodian Funds and the fund series as Franklin Growth Fund, with a period of report of June 30, 2026. The index page shows the form type and dates but not the individual holdings. The figure is a value a fund assigned to private shares, not a price from an exchange or a completed sale. None of the sources read gave a company valuation, a share count or the terms of any transaction, so this record covers only the per-share mark, its date and its filing.

Why it matters

Per-share price reference

A fund-reported mark gives a per-share figure for Plaid Class A stock between company-level events. Holders of private shares have one more dated reference point to set against other prices.

Mark, not a trade

The figure is the value a fund assigned to the shares at June 30, 2026. The sources do not show a buyer or seller at that price, so it says little about how readily a stake would find a buyer.
