Filing Released Lang Actions
Knorr-Bremse Aktiengesellschaft: Knorr-Bremse to acquire R.H. Sheppard Co., Inc. in the United States
M&A Activity Classification · 100% confidence The document is an 'Ad-hoc Release' dated January 30, 2020, disclosing inside information under MAR regulation. The key content explicitly states: 'Knorr-Bremse to acquire R.H. Sheppard Co., Inc. in the United States' and uses the keyword 'Company acquisition / M&A'. This clearly indicates an announcement related to a merger or takeover activity. According to the definitions, this corresponds to 'M&A Activity (Code: TAR)'. The document length is relatively short (3541 chars) and functions as a formal announcement of a transaction, not the detailed legal filing itself.

Declaration of Voting Results & Voting Rights Announcements 2020
Declaration of Voting Results & Voting Rights Announcements Classification · 100% confidence The document is explicitly titled 'Voting Rights Announcements' and contains sections detailing 'Notification of Major Holdings' under German Securities Trading Act (WpHG) regulations. It reports changes in voting rights percentages (e.g., from 4.15% to 3.44%) held by BlackRock, Inc. This directly corresponds to the definition of a Major Shareholding Notification, which tracks changes in significant ownership levels crossing thresholds. Although the title mentions 'Voting Rights Announcements', the content structure aligns perfectly with the 'Major Shareholding Notification' category (MRQ) which covers changes in significant share ownership levels crossing thresholds, as opposed to DVA which covers the *results* of a vote.

DCGK Entsprechenserklärung 2019
Governance Information Classification · 99% confidence The document is titled "Entsprechenserklärung des Vorstands und des Aufsichtsrats der Knorr-Bremse Aktiengesellschaft zum Deutschen Corporate Governance Kodex gemäß § 161 AktG" (Statement of Compliance of the Management Board and Supervisory Board of Knorr-Bremse AG with the German Corporate Governance Code pursuant to Section 161 of the German Stock Corporation Act). This explicitly deals with the company's internal rules, board structure, and governance practices as mandated by German law regarding the Corporate Governance Code. This aligns perfectly with the definition for Governance Information (CGR). The document is short and is a formal declaration, not an announcement of another report.

DCGK Declaration of compliance 2019

This explicitly deals with the company's internal rules, board structure, and governance practices as mandated by German law regarding the Corporate Governance Code.

Knorr-Bremse Aktiengesellschaft: Knorr-Bremse AG firmly on track after nine months: sales and profitability up further
Earnings Release Classification · 100% confidence The document is titled 'Knorr-Bremse Aktiengesellschaft: Knorr-Bremse AG firmly on track after nine months: sales and profitability up further' and explicitly states it is a 'Press Release' publishing the 'nine-month results for 2019'. It contains detailed financial figures (sales, EBITDA, order intake) for the first nine months of the fiscal year, along with segment breakdowns and an outlook. This content structure perfectly matches the definition of a comprehensive financial report for a period shorter than a year, which corresponds to the Interim / Quarterly Report (IR) category. It is not merely an 'Earnings Release' (ER) which typically contains only highlights, nor is it the full Annual Report (10-K). Since the document contains the full results and analysis, it is classified as IR. 9M 2019
2019-11-27 English
Q3/19 Financial Results Presentation
Earnings Release Classification · 95% confidence The document is titled 'Quarterly Release' and 'Financial Results', dated November 27, 2019, and presents 'Financial highlights 9M/19'. It contains detailed operational highlights, revenue figures, margin analysis, guidance confirmation for 2019, and a financial outlook for 2020. This structure is characteristic of an Earnings Release (ER) which provides key financial highlights for a period, or an Interim/Quarterly Report (IR) which is more comprehensive. Given the depth of analysis, management commentary ('Our take'), and forward-looking guidance, it leans towards a comprehensive quarterly report. However, the presence of 'Quarterly Release' and the focus on key highlights (like the sale & lease back transaction) often align with an Earnings Release (ER) which precedes the full, detailed Interim Report (IR). Since it contains detailed financial performance metrics and management discussion, it is more than just a brief announcement. Comparing ER (initial announcement of key highlights) and IR (comprehensive report for a shorter period): This document appears to be the presentation accompanying the release of the 9-month results, which often serves as the primary communication vehicle. Given the structure and content, it is best classified as an Earnings Release (ER) as it summarizes the results and outlook, rather than the full, formal regulatory filing (which would be an IR). The document length (13k chars) is substantial for a simple ER announcement, but typical for an accompanying investor presentation/release summary. 9M 2019
