Filing Released Lang Actions
Annual Financial Report
Report Publication Announcement Classification · 99% confidence The document is very short (940 characters) and explicitly states that the '2017 Annual Report' has been 'submitted today to the National Storage Mechanism' and is available on the website. This structure—announcing the publication of a primary report (Annual Report) rather than containing the full report content itself—fits the definition of a Report Publication Announcement (RPA). Although it mentions the Annual Report, the document's function here is to announce its availability, triggering the 'MENU VS MEAL' rule.

Directorate Change
Board/Management Information Classification · 98% confidence The document is a short announcement (2183 characters) released via RNS (RNS Number : 9481L) on July 25, 2017. The core content announces the 'RETIREMENT OF TOM KIRBY AS NON-EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN' and the subsequent appointment of Nick Donaldson as the new non-executive chairman, effective after the AGM on September 13, 2017. This clearly falls under the category of announcing changes in senior management or the board of directors. This matches the definition for Board/Management Information (MANG). It is not a full report, an earnings release, or a proxy statement, but a specific personnel announcement.

Annual Financial Report
Report Publication Announcement Classification · 99% confidence The document explicitly states '###### ANNUAL REPORT' and 'Games Workshop Group PLC announces its annual report for the year to 28 May 2017.' It also includes detailed financial highlights (Revenue, Operating profit, EPS, Dividends) comparing the current year (2017) to the previous year (2016), and contains extensive sections titled 'STRATEGIC REPORT' and 'Business model and structure'. Although it is presented as a press announcement/RNS format, the core content is the comprehensive Annual Report for the fiscal year ended May 28, 2017. Since the definition for 'Annual Report' (10-K) covers the official yearly report covering company activity and full financial performance, and this document contains the full substance of that report, 10-K is the most appropriate classification, even if the filing mechanism might be different (e.g., a UK equivalent or a preliminary release). Given the options, 10-K represents the document type being presented.
2017-07-25 English
Trading Statement
Earnings Release Classification · 99% confidence The document is titled 'TRADING STATEMENT' and provides a brief update on sales and profits for a specific period (May 29, 2017, to July 23, 2017), stating that profits are likely to be above market expectations. It is issued via 'RNS Number' and mentions 'inside information as stipulated under the Market Abuse Regulation'. This format—a short, periodic operational/financial update released through the Regulatory News Service (RNS)—most closely aligns with an Earnings Release (ER), which covers initial announcements of periodical financial results (key highlights only). Although it is short and released via RNS, it contains substantive financial performance highlights rather than just announcing the release of a larger report, making ER a better fit than RPA or RNS.

Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 100% confidence The document contains an 'RNS Number' and is dated '21 July 2017'. The content explicitly details share acquisitions by a Director/PDMR (Kevin Rountree, CEO, and Max Bottrill, Head of Product and Supply) and uses the heading 'DIRECTOR/PDMR SHAREHOLDING'. This type of insider transaction reporting is specifically covered by the 'Director's Dealing' definition. The code corresponding to Director's Dealing is DIRS.
2017-07-21 English
Holding(s) in Company
Major Shareholding Notification Classification · 99% confidence The document is explicitly labeled as 'RNS Number : 7768L' and contains the title 'TR-1: Standard form for notification of major holdings'. This form is used to report changes in significant share ownership, which directly corresponds to the definition of Major Shareholding Notification. The RNS identifier confirms it is a regulatory announcement, but the specific content points to MRQ (Major Shareholding Notification) over the general RNS fallback.
