Filing Released Lang Actions
Trading Statement
Earnings Release Classification · 99% confidence The document is very short (1397 characters) and provides a 'Trading Statement' ahead of the full results for the year ended March 31, 2018. It confirms that revenue and profit are in line with expectations and announces the date for the preliminary results release (June 28, 2018). This structure—a brief update announcing the status before a formal report release—fits the definition of a Report Publication Announcement (RPA), as it is an announcement about the forthcoming release of preliminary results, rather than the full results themselves (ER or 10-K). It is also tagged with an RNS Number, but RPA is more specific for announcements about the publication schedule of other reports. FY 2018

Holding(s) in Company
Major Shareholding Notification Classification · 99% confidence The document is clearly identified by the header 'RNS Number : 8954H' and the footer 'This information is provided by RNS The company news service from the London Stock Exchange'. The content is a 'TR-1: Standard form for notification of major holdings', which details changes in share ownership thresholds (crossing from 5.78% to 6.16%). This type of mandatory disclosure regarding significant changes in shareholding is classified under Major Shareholding Notification (MRQ). Although it is distributed via RNS, the specific content dictates the MRQ classification over the general RNS fallback.

Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 99% confidence The document is identified by the presence of 'RNS Number' and the closing statement 'This information is provided by RNS The company news service from the London Stock Exchange'. The content explicitly details share transactions ('Director / PDMR Dealing') involving directors (David Dunmow, Nick Latham, etc.) and reports these transactions in a structured format required by market regulations (EU Market Abuse Regulation). This type of filing, reporting personal share transactions by company directors and executives, directly corresponds to the definition of Director's Dealing.
2018-02-05 English
Director/PDMR Dealing
Director's Dealing Classification · 100% confidence The document is an official notification filed via RNS (RNS Number : 7401B) concerning a transaction involving shares by a director (Chris Sutton) of James Latham plc. The content explicitly details the exercise of options and subsequent sale of shares by an Executive Director, which falls under insider dealing or director's dealing regulations (EU Market Abuse Regulation is mentioned). This directly corresponds to the definition of Director's Dealing (Code: DIRS). Although it is an RNS filing, the specific nature of the content makes DIRS the most accurate classification over the general RNS fallback.
2018-01-12 English
Buyback of Preference Shares
Transaction in Own Shares Classification · 98% confidence The document is very short (1056 characters) and announces a specific corporate action: the 'Buyback of Preference Shares'. It explicitly states the date, number of shares purchased, and the resulting number of shares in issue. This action directly corresponds to the definition of 'Transaction in Own Shares' (share repurchase). The presence of an RNS Number (2609A) indicates it is a regulatory announcement, but the content is specific enough to map to POS rather than the general RNS fallback.

PDMR Dealings and Total Voting Rights
Director's Dealing Classification · 98% confidence The document begins with an 'RNS Number' and explicitly states 'James Latham plc' announces PDMR Dealings and Total Voting Rights. It details the transfer of treasury shares, the issuance of shares to PDMRs under employee share schemes, and the resulting shareholdings and total voting rights. This content directly relates to insider transactions (Director's Dealing) and mandatory notifications regarding share capital changes, which are typically reported via RNS. The specific content about PDMR dealings strongly points to the 'Director's Dealing' category (DIRS). However, since the document is a formal regulatory announcement distributed via the RNS system, and it also covers total voting rights updates, it fits the description of a general regulatory filing distributed through the RNS service. Given the specific nature of the content (PDMR dealings), DIRS is highly relevant, but the presence of the RNS header and the nature of the announcement (a formal notification) makes it a strong candidate for a general regulatory filing if DIRS is not the primary focus. Reviewing the definitions: DIRS is for 'Report of personal share transactions by company directors and executives (insider trades)'. This document is exactly that. Therefore, DIRS is the most precise classification, even though it is distributed via RNS.
