Declaration of Voting Results & Voting Rights Announcements Classification · 100% confidence The document explicitly states the 'Total Voting Rights' as of a specific date (February 28, 2022) and provides the total number of issued ordinary shares. It mentions that this figure should be used by shareholders for notifications under the FCA’s Disclosure and Transparency Rules. This type of announcement, detailing the total number of shares with voting rights, is a specific regulatory disclosure related to shareholder voting power and is best classified under 'Declaration of Voting Results & Voting Rights Announcements' (DVA), as it directly relates to the mechanics of voting rights calculation, even though it's not the final result of a vote, but the denominator required for such calculations.
