This seems like an odd comparison to force arrival at a number as high as "5%", not including the rounding. Why would you compare a single investment of $45B to annual revenue? Control would imply ownership, so I'd expect the comparison to be to the summed market cap of those companies, which is obviously higher than $1T.
