Bastei Lubbe grows with high profitability in the 2020/2021 financial year
Earnings Release Classification · 100% confidence The document is titled 'Bastei Lübbe grows with high profitability in the 2020/2021 financial year' and explicitly states it 'published its results for the 2020/2021 fiscal year'. It contains key financial highlights (turnover, EBIT, dividend proposal) typical of an initial results announcement, and it is disseminated via DGAP-News, which often carries Earnings Releases (ER) or preliminary results before the full Annual Report (10-K) is filed. The text mentions the '2020/2021 Annual Report' is available elsewhere, suggesting this document is the preliminary announcement of those results, not the full report itself. Therefore, it fits the definition of an Earnings Release (ER). FY 2020

Report Publication Announcement 2021
Report Publication Announcement Classification · 100% confidence The document is titled "Preliminary announcement of the publication of financial reports according to Articles 114, 115, 117 of the WpHG". It explicitly states that the Annual financial report and the Annual financial report of the group will be disclosed on July 13, 2021, and provides a link. Since this document is a preliminary announcement about the future publication of reports, and not the report itself, it fits the definition of a Report Publication Announcement (RPA). The document length (1771 chars) is very short, supporting the 'MENU VS MEAL' rule.

Hinweis auf Jahresfinanzbericht vom 01.04.2020 bis zum 31.03.2021
Report Publication Announcement Classification · 99% confidence The document is very short (790 characters) and explicitly states that the 'Finanzbericht' (Financial Report) is available 'Im Internet unter:' (On the internet at:) and provides a publication date ('Pflichtveröffentlichung am: 06.07.2021'). This structure—announcing the availability of a report rather than containing the full report content—fits the definition of a Report Publication Announcement (RPA). The subject mentions 'Jahresfinanzbericht' (Annual Financial Report), but given the short length and announcement nature, RPA is the correct classification based on Rule 2 (The 'MENU VS MEAL' Rule).

Bastei Lubbe AG: Preliminary sales and earnings figures of Bastei Lubbe AG in fiscal year 2020/2021 above expectations - higher EBIT margin expected
Earnings Release Classification · 100% confidence The document is a news release dated April 27, 2021, titled "Preliminary sales and earnings figures of Bastei Lübbe AG in fiscal year 2020/2021 above expectations – higher EBIT margin expected." It explicitly states that the company published an 'ad hoc announcement' regarding preliminary revenue and EBIT figures for Q4 2020/2021. This content focuses on the initial release of key financial results (sales, EBIT) before the full annual report (10-K) or comprehensive interim report (IR) is issued. This aligns perfectly with the definition of an Earnings Release (ER), which covers initial announcements of periodical financial results (key highlights only). Although it mentions the AGM date for dividend proposal, the primary purpose of this specific document is the preliminary earnings update. FY 2021

Bastei Lubbe AG: Preliminary sales and earnings figures of Bastei Lubbe AG in financial year 2020/2021 above expectations - higher EBIT margin expected
Earnings Release Classification · 100% confidence The document is an 'Ad-hoc' announcement dated April 26, 2021, disclosing 'Preliminary sales and earnings figures' for the financial year 2020/2021. It provides key financial highlights (sales, EBIT, EBIT margin) that are better than previously expected, and mentions future plans, including a dividend proposal for the upcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM). This content structure—a brief, immediate release of key financial results before the full report—is characteristic of an Earnings Release (ER). It is not the full Annual Report (10-K) or the comprehensive Interim Report (IR), but rather the initial announcement of the results. The document length (3580 chars) is short, but its primary function is announcing preliminary results, not just announcing the publication of a report (RPA). FY 2021
2021-04-26 English
Declaration of Voting Results & Voting Rights Announcements 2021
Declaration of Voting Results & Voting Rights Announcements Classification · 100% confidence The document is explicitly titled 'Voting Rights Announcements' and contains sections detailing the 'Notification of Major Holdings' as per Article 40, Section 1 of the WpHG (German Securities Trading Act). It reports a change in the percentage of voting rights held by Rossmann Beteiligungs GmbH in Bastei Lübbe AG, crossing a threshold (from 3.05% to 5.09%). This directly corresponds to the definition of a Major Shareholding Notification (MRQ), which covers notifications of changes in significant share ownership levels crossing thresholds. Although it mentions 'Voting Rights Announcements' in the header, the content is specifically about major holdings, which aligns best with MRQ.
