Filing Released Lang Actions
Total Voting Rights
Declaration of Voting Results & Voting Rights Announcements Classification · 1% confidence The document is very short (1185 characters) and contains an 'RNS Number' (6917O) and mentions the 'London Stock Exchange' and 'FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules'. The content explicitly states the 'Total Voting Rights' (402,772,446) and provides this figure for shareholders to use in calculating notification requirements under transparency rules. This is a standard regulatory disclosure regarding the total number of shares and voting rights, which fits the definition of a general regulatory announcement. While it relates to voting rights, it is not the declaration of the *results* of a vote (DVA), but rather a routine update on the denominator for future voting calculations. Given the source (RNS) and the nature of the disclosure (Total Voting Rights update), the most appropriate general category is Regulatory Filings (RNS), as it is a mandatory disclosure via the RNS system.

Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 1% confidence The document is titled 'RNS Number : 1972N' and explicitly states it is a 'Notification of transactions of persons discharging managerial responsibility' concerning the CEO's purchase of shares. This directly corresponds to the definition of Director's Dealing (insider trades by executives). The presence of the RNS identifier and the reference to the London Stock Exchange further confirms it is a regulatory disclosure. The appropriate code is DIRS.

Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 1% confidence The document is explicitly labeled with an "RNS Number" and states that the information is provided by RNS, the news service of the London Stock Exchange, approved by the FCA. The content details a transaction involving a person discharging managerial responsibilities (the CFO, Mandy Gradden) acquiring shares. This type of insider transaction reporting falls directly under the definition of Director's Dealing (DIRS). Although RNS is mentioned, the specific content is about insider trading, making DIRS the most precise classification over the general RNS fallback.
2020-05-07 English
Result of AGM
AGM Information Classification · 1% confidence The document explicitly states 'Result of Annual General Meeting ("AGM")' and provides a detailed table showing the voting results ('Shares For', 'Shares Against', 'Votes Witheld/ Abstentions') for 19 resolutions presented at the 2020 AGM. This content directly corresponds to the definition of AGM Information (AGM-R), which covers presentations and materials shared during the AGM, including the results of the votes taken. Although it contains voting results (DVA), the primary context is the overall outcome and documentation of the AGM proceedings, making AGM-R the most specific fit. The RNS Number header confirms it is a regulatory announcement, but the content is specific to the AGM result.

Total Voting Rights
Declaration of Voting Results & Voting Rights Announcements Classification · 1% confidence The document is very short (1185 characters) and is explicitly marked with an 'RNS Number'. The content announces the 'Total Voting Rights' figure, which is a mandatory disclosure under regulatory rules (FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules). This type of mandatory, short regulatory update that doesn't fit a specific financial report category (like 10-K, ER, or IR) is best classified as a general Regulatory Filing (RNS). It is not a declaration of voting results (DVA) but rather the denominator used for calculating voting interests.
2020-05-01 English
Covenant amendments and Q1 trading update
Capital/Financing Update Classification · 1% confidence The document begins with an 'RNS Number' and is dated April 29, 2020. It contains an announcement titled 'Covenant amendments and Q1 trading update' regarding debt facilities, covenant waivers, Q1 trading performance (Revenue grew by 5.1% organically), and mitigating actions related to COVID-19. This structure—a formal announcement of financial performance highlights for a specific period (Q1) combined with significant corporate/financing updates (covenant amendments)—is characteristic of an Earnings Release (ER). It is not a full Annual Report (10-K) or a comprehensive Interim Report (IR), as it focuses on highlights and updates rather than a full set of statutory financial statements. The presence of the RNS header confirms it is a regulatory announcement, but the content is specifically financial results/updates, making ER the best fit over the general RNS fallback.
