Bastei Lubbe AG and Chairman of the Board of Management Thomas Schierack have agreed to part company by mutual consent
Board/Management Information Classification · 100% confidence The document is a press release announcing that the Chairman of the Board of Management, Thomas Schierack, has resigned by mutual consent due to differing views on strategic orientation. This directly concerns a change in senior management personnel. According to the definitions, 'Board/Management Information (Code: MANG)' covers the 'Announcement of changes in the company's board of directors or senior management.' The presence of DGAP-News, Press Release headers, and the specific content confirm this classification. The document length (4160 chars) is not short enough to trigger the RPA/RNS rule based on announcing an attached report.

Bastei Lubbe AG and Chairman of the Board of Management Thomas Schierack have agreed to part company by mutual consent
Board/Management Information Classification · 100% confidence The document is a short, ad-hoc disclosure dated September 20, 2017, announcing that the Chairman of the Board of Management, Thomas Schierack, is leaving the company by mutual consent due to differing views on strategic orientation. This content directly relates to changes in senior management personnel. Based on the definitions, this aligns perfectly with the 'Board/Management Information' category (Code: MANG). The document is not a full report, earnings release, or legal filing, but a specific personnel announcement.

Bastei Lubbe feiert Premiere des neuen historischen Romans von Ken Follett 'Das Fundament der Ewigkeit'
Report Publication Announcement Classification · 99% confidence The document is a press release announcing the worldwide release of Ken Follett's new historical novel, 'Das Fundament der Ewigkeit' (The Pillars of the Earth prequel). It details the book's content, the author's upcoming promotional tour, and mentions other upcoming book releases (Dan Brown's 'Origin'). It is issued by Bastei Lübbe AG and distributed via DGAP-News. This is a general corporate announcement related to product/content release, not a mandatory financial filing like a 10-K, Earnings Release (ER), or Interim Report (IR). Since it is a general news announcement about a major product launch and marketing activities, and it doesn't fit the specific categories like Director's Dealing (DIRS), Capital Change (CAP), or Dividend (DIV), the most appropriate general category is Regulatory Filings (RNS), which serves as a fallback for miscellaneous corporate news announcements distributed via regulatory channels (like DGAP in this context). It is not a Call Transcript (CT), Investor Presentation (IP), or a formal Financial Supplement (XLSX).

Konzernabschluss zum Geschäftsjahr vom 01.04.2016 bis zum 31.03.2017
Audit Report / Information Classification · 98% confidence The document is titled 'Konzernabschluss und Konzernlagebericht Bastei Lübbe AG Geschäftsjahr 2016/2017' (Consolidated Financial Statements and Management Report). It provides a comprehensive overview of the company's business segments, strategy, and financial structure for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2017. Given the length and the nature of the content (detailed management discussion and analysis of the fiscal year), it is classified as an Annual Report. FY 2017

Bastei Lubbe AG starts 2017/2018 financial year on a positive note and significantly improves operating result
Earnings Release Classification · 100% confidence The document is titled 'Bastei Lübbe AG starts 2017/2018 financial year on a positive note and significantly improves operating result' and explicitly mentions 'Quarter Results' as a keyword. It details consolidated revenue, EBITDA, and segment performance for the first quarter (April 1 to June 30, 2017) of the 2017/2018 financial year. This content structure—summarizing key financial metrics for a period shorter than a year—is characteristic of an Interim/Quarterly Report. Although it is presented as a news release (DGAP-News), the substance is the financial results themselves, not just an announcement of a report's publication. The document also explicitly states, 'The full interim report on the first quarter of 2017/2018 is available online...' which suggests this text is the summary/release of that report. Given the detailed financial figures and period reporting, it aligns best with the Interim / Quarterly Report (IR) definition, rather than just a Report Publication Announcement (RPA). Q1 2017
2017-08-29 English
Q1 statement / Q1 financial report 2017/2018
Interim / Quarterly Report Classification · 100% confidence The document is a 'Group quarterly report' for Bastei Lübbe AG covering the period from 1 April to 30 June 2017. It contains detailed financial statements, including a consolidated profit and loss account, balance sheet data, and management's analysis of business performance, risks, and forecasts. Since it provides comprehensive financial data for a period shorter than a full fiscal year, it is classified as an Interim/Quarterly Report. Q2 2017
