Everpure, Inc.Activist investor Jana Partners has built a new position in technology company Everpure and is expected to soon disclose the holding in a regulatory filing, according to sources and documents reviewed by Reuters. The hedge fund began building its position in the first quarter of 2026 but requested confidential treatment from U.S. regulators to delay disclosure, and at the end of that quarter it owned more than 1 million shares in the Santa Clara-headquartered company formerly known as Pure Storage. The current size of Jana's stake could not be learned, and it is unclear what changes the firm, run by managing partner Scott Ostfeld, may be pushing for at Everpure, which has a market value of $23 billion and has seen its stock climb 2.35% this year amid surging demand tied to artificial intelligence infrastructure. A representative for Jana did not respond to a request for comment, while an Everpure representative said the company maintains an open dialogue with all shareholders and remains focused on executing its strategic plan.
