Filing Released Lang Actions
Holding(s) in Company
Major Shareholding Notification Classification · 98% confidence The document is explicitly labeled with 'RNS Number : 4563S' and contains the standard format for a 'TR-1: Standard form for notification of major holdings'. This form is used to report changes in significant share ownership thresholds. The definition for Major Shareholding Notification is 'MRQ'. Although RNS is present, MRQ is a more specific classification for this type of regulatory filing concerning share ownership changes.

Interim Results Date Change
Report Publication Announcement Classification · 98% confidence The document is very short (988 characters) and its primary purpose is to announce a change in the date for the release of the 'Interim Results' (which would typically be an IR filing). The text explicitly states: 'Bloomsbury announces that the results for the six months ending 31 August 2017 will now be announced on Tuesday 24 October 2017...'. This fits the definition of announcing the publication of a report rather than being the report itself. Therefore, the most appropriate classification is Report Publication Announcement (RPA).
2017-09-22 English
Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 100% confidence The document is a formal notification filed via RNS (RNS Number : 8977P) concerning transactions conducted by a person discharging managerial responsibilities (Steven Hall, Non-Executive Director). It explicitly references Article 19 of the Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) regarding disclosure of transactions by PDMRs. This type of filing, detailing insider share transactions (Share purchase by a Director), directly corresponds to the 'Director's Dealing' category.
2017-09-05 English
Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 100% confidence The document is identified by the RNS Number (8161N) and explicitly states it is a 'Notification and public disclosure of transactions by persons discharging managerial responsibilities and persons closely associated with them' under Article 19 of the Market Abuse Regulation. This structure details insider transactions (Share Purchase by Sir Richard Lambert, Non-Executive Chairman). This directly corresponds to the definition of Director's Dealing (DIRS). Although it is distributed via RNS, the specific content is about insider trades, making DIRS the most precise classification.
2017-08-11 English
Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 100% confidence The document is a formal notification identified by the 'RNS Number' and explicitly references 'Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 on market abuse (Market Abuse Regulation)' and 'Article 19'. It details a transaction ('Share Purchase') by a 'Non-Executive Director' (Jill Jones). This structure perfectly matches the definition of a Director's Dealing report, which discloses personal share transactions by executives/directors. The corresponding code is DIRS.
2017-07-20 English
Results of voting on resolutions at the AGM
AGM Information Classification · 99% confidence The document explicitly states it contains the 'Results of voting on resolutions at the AGM held 18 July 2017'. It details that all 17 resolutions were passed and provides detailed tables of proxy votes for each resolution, including percentages and raw numbers. This content directly relates to the official results from a shareholder meeting. The definition for 'Declaration of Voting Results & Voting Rights Announcements' (DVA) is 'Official results from shareholder votes at any general meeting (AGM or EGM)'. Although the document is an announcement via RNS, its primary, specific content is the voting results, making DVA the most accurate classification over the general RNS fallback. The document length is short (3387 chars), but it contains the full results, not just an announcement that results *will be* published, thus it is the result itself.
