Filing Released Lang Actions
General Meeting Notice
AGM Information Classification · 1% confidence The document is explicitly titled "Ascential plc Notice of General Meeting and explanatory notes" and details the time, date, and location for a General Meeting (GM) scheduled for May 11, 2017. It includes a formal "Notice of General Meeting" section containing an "Ordinary Resolution" regarding the declaration of a final dividend. This content directly relates to convening a shareholder meeting and soliciting votes, which aligns perfectly with the definition of materials shared during an Annual General Meeting (AGM) or related preparatory/procedural documents. The presence of a Form of Proxy and instructions on voting strongly points to AGM-related materials. Therefore, the classification is AGM-R.

Total Voting Rights
Regulatory Filings Classification · 1% confidence The document is very short (994 characters) and contains an RNS Number (3594B) and the date of disclosure. The core content announces the 'Total Voting Rights' as of a specific date (March 31, 2017) and states that this figure should be used by shareholders for notifications under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules. This type of mandatory, periodic disclosure regarding the total number of shares and voting rights is a standard regulatory announcement. While it relates to share capital, it is not a transaction (POS) or a general capital change (SHA), but rather a required disclosure under transparency rules. Given the format (RNS Number, London Stock Exchange source) and the specific nature of the information (Total Voting Rights denominator), it fits best under the general regulatory announcement category, RNS, as it is a specific regulatory filing that doesn't map perfectly to the other detailed categories like DIV, DIRS, or CAP.

External directorship
Board/Management Information Classification · 1% confidence The document is very short (913 characters) and announces a change in the board of directors: Gillian Kent, a non-executive director of Ascential plc, was appointed a non-executive director of Mothercare plc. This directly relates to changes in senior management or the board. This aligns perfectly with the definition for Board/Management Information (MANG). Although it is filed via RNS (indicated by 'RNS Number' and 'The company news service from the London Stock Exchange'), the specific content dictates the MANG classification over the general RNS fallback, as MANG is a more specific category for board changes.
2017-03-16 English
Holding(s) in Company
Major Shareholding Notification Classification · 1% confidence The document is titled 'TR-1: NOTIFICATION OF MAJOR INTEREST IN SHARES' and contains structured data fields typical of regulatory filings concerning changes in significant shareholdings. Key indicators include 'RNS Number', 'Ascential PLC', 'Acquisition or disposal of voting rights', and the crossing of a threshold ('5%'). This directly corresponds to the definition of a Major Shareholding Notification, which is classified as 'MRQ' in the provided schema. Although it is distributed via RNS, the specific content dictates the MRQ classification over the general RNS fallback.

Holding(s) in Company
Major Shareholding Notification Classification · 1% confidence The document is clearly identified by the header 'RNS Number : 0688Z' and the footer 'This information is provided by RNS The company news service from the London Stock Exchange'. The content details a 'TR-1: NOTIFICATION OF MAJOR INTEREST IN SHARES' concerning an acquisition or disposal of voting rights by 'Eden Debtco 2 S.à r.l.' in 'Ascential plc'. This type of mandatory disclosure regarding changes in significant shareholdings (crossing thresholds) aligns directly with the definition for Major Shareholding Notification (MRQ). Although it is an RNS filing, MRQ is the more specific category for this content type.
2017-03-09 English
Holding(s) in Company
Major Shareholding Notification Classification · 1% confidence The document is clearly identified by the header 'RNS Number : 0687Z' and contains a standardized form titled 'TR-1: NOTIFICATION OF MAJOR INTEREST IN SHARES'. This form details changes in significant share ownership (Guardian Media Group plc's interest in Ascential plc crossing below the 3% threshold). This type of filing, which reports changes in major shareholdings, corresponds directly to the 'Major Shareholding Notification' definition. Although it originates from RNS (London Stock Exchange news service), the specific content is a TR-1 form, which maps precisely to the MRQ (Major Shareholding Notification) code, rather than the general RNS fallback code.
