This is not authoritative,
but a friend in Australia used to routinely be given IP addresses by his
residential ISP which geolocated in the USA and a whois revealed they
were owned by a US network. Turns out that US network owned the ISP
operating in Australia.
I do not recall if the AS was specific to that ISP's operations in
Australia. (It's been a few years) npr if traceroutes from canada would
pass by the owning network's router's before hopping over to australia.
