Filing Released Lang Actions
Transaction in Own Shares
Transaction in Own Shares Classification · 1% confidence The document explicitly states it is an 'RNS Number' announcement from 'Ascential PLC' dated February 27, 2020. The title of the announcement is 'Transaction in own shares', and the content details the purchase of 170,000 ordinary shares for cancellation, including the highest, lowest, and average purchase prices, and a detailed schedule of individual transactions. This directly matches the definition for 'Transaction in Own Shares' (Code: POS). Although it is distributed via RNS, the specific content dictates the POS classification over the general RNS fallback.

Transaction in Own Shares
Transaction in Own Shares Classification · 1% confidence The document is explicitly marked with an 'RNS Number' and states that the information is provided by RNS, the news service of the London Stock Exchange. The content details a 'Transaction in own shares' (share buyback), including the number of shares purchased, prices, and the resulting total shares outstanding. This activity directly corresponds to the definition of 'Transaction in Own Shares' (Code: POS). Although it is distributed via RNS, the primary subject matter is the share transaction itself, making POS the most specific classification. The document length is substantial (over 10,000 characters), so it is not a simple RPA.

Transaction in Own Shares
Transaction in Own Shares Classification · 1% confidence The document explicitly states it is an 'RNS Number' announcement from 'Ascential plc' dated February 26, 2020. The subject is 'Transaction in own shares' and details the purchase of ordinary shares for cancellation, including the number of shares bought, the price range, and the resulting total shares outstanding. This directly matches the definition of 'Transaction in Own Shares' (Code: POS). Although it is distributed via RNS, the core content is a specific transaction report, making POS the most accurate classification over the general RNS fallback.
2020-02-26 English
Share repurchase programme
Transaction in Own Shares Classification · 1% confidence The document is an official announcement filed via RNS (RNS Number : 1893E) dated February 26, 2020. The subject matter explicitly details the commencement of a 'Share repurchase programme' and mentions the agreement with Numis Securities for the purchase of the Company's ordinary shares up to £120m. This activity—the company buying back its own shares—directly corresponds to the definition of 'Transaction in Own Shares'. Therefore, the appropriate filing type code is POS.
2020-02-26 English
Correction to Dividend Date
Notice of Dividend Amount Classification · 1% confidence The document is very short (1208 characters) and is explicitly identified as an 'RNS Number' filing from the London Stock Exchange. The content corrects a previously announced dividend record date, which is a specific corporate action announcement related to shareholder payments. This fits best under the 'Notice of Dividend Amount' (DIV) category, as it directly concerns dividend payment mechanics, or potentially 'Regulatory Filings' (RNS) as a general announcement. Since it is a specific correction to a dividend detail (payment date/record date), DIV is more precise than the general RNS fallback. The document is an announcement, not the full report itself.

Final Results
Earnings Release Classification · 1% confidence The document is titled 'Audited results for the year ended 31 December 2019' and contains extensive financial highlights, including Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, EPS, and detailed segment performance comparisons between 2019 and 2018. It explicitly states it announces results for the year ended 31 December 2019. This content structure and focus on full-year audited performance strongly indicates an Annual Report, which corresponds to the 10-K filing type in the US context, or the primary annual filing for other jurisdictions. Although it is presented via an RNS (Regulatory News Service) format, the core content is the full annual financial results, not just a brief announcement of publication. Therefore, it is classified as the Annual Report (10-K). FY 2019
