Filing Released Lang Actions
Holding(s) in Company
Major Shareholding Notification Classification · 99% confidence The document is clearly identified as an 'RNS Number' filing from Ricardo PLC, dated October 1, 2021. The title is 'TR-1: Standard form for notification of major holdings'. This form is used to report changes in significant share ownership, specifically when a threshold of voting rights is crossed or reached. This directly corresponds to the definition of Major Shareholding Notification (MRQ). Although it is distributed via RNS, the specific content dictates the classification over the general RNS fallback.

Correction: Preliminary Results
Earnings Release Classification · 100% confidence The document is titled 'Ricardo PLC Preliminary results for the full year ended 30 June 2021' and contains detailed financial tables, segment performance reviews, CEO commentary, and key highlights for a full fiscal year. This structure is characteristic of a comprehensive annual financial report. Although it is presented as an RNS announcement (RNS Number : 6612M) and mentions an amendment to a previous release, the core content is the full-year financial performance summary, which aligns best with the Annual Report (10-K) definition, even if the filing format is an RNS wrapper. However, since the definition for 10-K is 'Official yearly report covering company activity and full financial performance,' and this document provides that full performance summary, 10-K is the most appropriate classification for the *content type*. If the document were merely announcing the availability of the 10-K, RPA would be chosen. Given the extensive financial detail provided, it functions as the Annual Report content itself. The mention of a final dividend declaration (which could suggest DIV) is secondary to the overall annual results presentation. FY 2021

Preliminary Results
Earnings Release Classification · 100% confidence The document explicitly states 'Preliminary results for the full year ended 30 June 2021' and provides detailed financial tables comparing 2021 results to 2020, including revenue, profit before tax, order intake, and dividend declarations. This content structure, covering a full fiscal year's performance summary, strongly indicates an Annual Report or a document closely related to it, such as an Earnings Release (ER) or Interim Report (IR). However, the term 'Preliminary results' combined with the comprehensive nature of the financial data and the announcement date (September 15, 2021, following a June 30 year-end) suggests this is the primary release of the full-year figures. Since the definition for 'Annual Report (10-K)' covers 'Official yearly report covering company activity and full financial performance,' and this document serves that function for the preliminary announcement, 10-K is the most appropriate classification for the *content type*, even if the specific filing format might be a preliminary release or an Earnings Release (ER). Given the depth of financial detail and the full-year scope, it is more substantial than a typical ER. If this were the final audited 10-K, it would be 10-K. Since it is the 'Preliminary results' announcement, it functions as the primary annual financial disclosure, making ER or 10-K candidates. Because it covers the *full year* and contains extensive financial metrics, it aligns best with the scope of an Annual Report (10-K) content, even if it is a preliminary version released outside the formal SEC filing schedule. However, in many contexts, the initial release of full-year results is classified as an Earnings Release (ER). Given the length and detail, and the fact that it is a 'Preliminary results' announcement, ER is a strong fit, but the content is essentially the core of the Annual Report. Let's re-evaluate based on definitions: ER is 'Initial announcement of quarterly/periodical financial results (key highlights only)'. This document is for the *full year* and is quite detailed, going beyond 'key highlights'. 10-K is 'Official yearly report...'. Since this is a preliminary announcement of the full year's results, it is the precursor to the 10-K. In the context of non-US filings (Ricardo PLC is listed on LSE, indicated by RNS number), the closest equivalent to the comprehensive annual disclosure is often classified as the Annual Report (AR) or 10-K content type. Given the comprehensive nature of the full-year financial summary, I will classify it as 10-K content, recognizing it is a preliminary release. FY 2021

Block listing six monthly return
Share Issue/Capital Change Classification · 99% confidence The document explicitly starts with "RNS Number : 7666L" and contains boilerplate text indicating it is provided by RNS, the news service of the London Stock Exchange, which is approved by the FCA. The content itself is a "BLOCK LISTING SIX MONTHLY RETURN" detailing the balance of unallotted securities under various incentive plans over a six-month period (March 12, 2021, to September 11, 2021). This type of routine regulatory filing that doesn't fit a more specific category (like 10-K, ER, or DIV) is best classified under the general regulatory announcement category, RNS, as per the definitions and the document's origin.

Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 99% confidence The document is an RNS announcement (indicated by 'RNS Number : 7665L' and the closing statement referencing RNS/LSE) dated September 14, 2021. The content explicitly details 'Director / PDMR Shareholdings' concerning the 'Purchase of Partnership Shares under the Ricardo PLC Share Incentive Plan (the "SIP")' by several Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities (PDMRs). This type of filing, reporting personal share transactions by directors and executives, directly corresponds to the definition of Director's Dealing.

Holding(s) in Company
Major Shareholding Notification Classification · 99% confidence The document is titled 'TR-1: Standard form for notification of major holdings' and details changes in voting rights held by Royal London Asset Management, crossing a threshold. This structure and content are characteristic of regulatory filings related to insider or major shareholder transactions/holdings. The presence of 'RNS Number' and the footer referencing the London Stock Exchange and Financial Conduct Authority confirms it is a regulatory announcement. Specifically, notifications of changes in significant share ownership levels (crossing thresholds) map directly to the Major Shareholding Notification category (MRQ). Although it is an RNS filing, MRQ is more specific.
