Blackbird expands to 80 US TV stations
Regulatory Filings Classification · 100% confidence The document is identified by the header 'RNS Number : 2912U' and explicitly states it is a 'Reach non-regulatory announcement*'. The footnote section further clarifies that 'Reach is an investor communication service aimed at assisting listed and unlisted (including AIM quoted) companies to distribute media only / non-regulatory news releases into the public domain.' Since this is a non-regulatory news release distributed via the RNS system, and it does not fit any specific category like ER, DIV, or CAP, the most appropriate fallback category for general, non-regulatory announcements distributed through this channel is 'Regulatory Filings' (RNS), as it is the designated catch-all for filings that don't fit elsewhere, even though this specific one is marked as 'non-regulatory' via the Reach service. However, given the specific definitions, 'RNS' is defined as 'General regulatory announcements and fallback category for miscellaneous filings that do not neatly fit into other specific categories.' Since this is a distribution announcement that is explicitly non-regulatory, it is a miscellaneous filing distributed via the RNS infrastructure. If a more specific category existed for 'Non-Regulatory Press Release', that would be chosen. In the absence of that, RNS serves as the best fit for announcements distributed through this system that aren't covered by other specific types.

Blackbird named Best Tech Company 2021
Regulatory Filings Classification · 100% confidence The document is identified by the RNS Number header and contains information released on November 18, 2021. The content announces that Blackbird plc won the 'Best Tech Company 2021 Award' at the SportsPro OTT Awards. Crucially, the document explicitly states at the end: "This is a Reach announcement. Reach is an investor communication service aimed at assisting listed and unlisted (including AIM quoted) companies to distribute media only / non-regulatory news releases into the public domain." It further clarifies that information requiring notification under AIM Rules or Market Abuse Regulation would be disseminated as an RNS regulatory announcement and not via Reach. Since this is a non-regulatory news release about an award win, it does not fit the specific categories like ER, IR, or CAP. The most appropriate fallback category for a general, non-regulatory corporate announcement distributed via the RNS/Reach system, which doesn't fit other specific types, is 'Regulatory Filings' (RNS), as it is the general distribution channel for such news, even if this specific item is marked as 'non-regulatory' via the Reach service.

Eurovision chooses Blackbird
Regulatory Filings Classification · 95% confidence The document is identified by the RNS Number header and contains a date (16 November 2021). The content describes a commercial agreement between Blackbird plc and Eurovision Sport regarding video workflow efficiencies. Crucially, the document explicitly states: "This is a Reach announcement. Reach is an investor communication service aimed at assisting listed and unlisted (including AIM quoted) companies to distribute media only / non-regulatory news releases into the public domain." It further clarifies that information requiring notification under AIM Rules or Market Abuse Regulation would be disseminated as an RNS regulatory announcement and not on Reach. Since this is explicitly a non-regulatory news release distributed via the Reach service, and it does not fit any other specific category (like ER, CT, or DIV), the most appropriate classification is the general fallback for miscellaneous, non-regulatory announcements, which is Regulatory Filings (RNS), as it is distributed through the RNS ecosystem but flagged as non-regulatory news. Given the explicit mention of 'Reach' and the distinction from formal regulatory filings, RNS serves as the best fit for this type of market communication that isn't a core financial report or specific corporate action.

Total Voting Rights
Declaration of Voting Results & Voting Rights Announcements Classification · 100% confidence The document is very short (4042 characters) and its primary purpose is to announce the 'Total Voting Rights' of Blackbird PLC as of October 29, 2021, providing the total number of shares (338,994,092) to be used as the denominator for FCA Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules calculations. This type of mandatory disclosure, often issued via RNS, relates to share capital structure and voting rights, but it is not a comprehensive report (like 10-K or IR) nor a specific transaction report (like POS or SHA). Since it is a general regulatory announcement provided through RNS, and it doesn't fit the specific definitions for DVA (Voting Results), SHA (Share Issue), or POS (Transaction in Own Shares), the most appropriate classification is the general regulatory filing category, RNS, as it is a standard notification disseminated through that service.

Blackbird launches technology licensing business
Regulatory Filings Classification · 100% confidence The document is identified by the RNS Number and the date, indicating a regulatory or news filing. Crucially, the document explicitly states it is a "Reach non-regulatory announcement*" and later confirms, "Reach is a non-regulatory news service." It announces a new product launch ('Powered by Blackbird') and provides company updates, which is not a formal financial report (like 10-K, IR, ER) or a specific corporate action filing (like DIV, CAP, DIRS). Since it is a general, non-regulatory news release distributed via the RNS system, the most appropriate classification is the general regulatory/miscellaneous filing category, RNS, as it is not covered by the more specific definitions and is explicitly distinguished from regulatory announcements.
2021-10-21 English
Director/PDMR exercise of options
Director's Dealing Classification · 98% confidence The document is identified by the 'RNS Number' header and contains a notification regarding a transaction by a person discharging managerial responsibilities (a Non-executive Director exercising options to acquire shares). This type of filing, detailing personal share transactions by directors and executives, directly corresponds to the definition of Director's Dealing. The structure and content match the requirements for reporting insider trades, which is specifically covered by the 'DIRS' code. Although it is an RNS announcement, the specific content points strongly to DIRS over the general RNS fallback.
