Filing Released Lang Actions
Holding(s) in Company
Major Shareholding Notification Classification · 100% confidence The document is explicitly labeled with 'RNS Number : 8384X' and contains the header '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 content details the percentage of voting rights crossed (5.0289%) by Pzena Investment Management, Inc. in J Sainsbury plc. Therefore, the correct classification is Major Shareholding Notification (MRQ).

Total Voting Rights
Regulatory Filings Classification · 98% confidence The document is identified by the 'RNS Number' header and explicitly states it is provided by 'RNS, the news service of the London Stock Exchange.' The content announces the total number of voting rights and the issued share capital as of a specific date (28 August 2020). This type of mandatory disclosure regarding capital structure and voting rights is a standard regulatory announcement. While it relates to capital, its primary function here is a regulatory notification via the RNS system, making 'RNS' (Regulatory Filings) the most appropriate general category, as it is not a specific announcement like a dividend (DIV) or share repurchase (POS), but a general regulatory update. Reviewing the definitions, 'RNS' is the fallback for miscellaneous regulatory filings. However, the content specifically deals with the total number of voting rights, which is a key component of shareholder notification rules. The closest specific category might be related to voting rights (DVA), but DVA is defined as 'Official results from shareholder votes at any general meeting (AGM or EGM)'. This document is a standing notification of the denominator for voting calculations, not the result of a vote. Therefore, the general regulatory filing category 'RNS' is the best fit for this routine disclosure.

Additional Listing
Share Issue/Capital Change Classification · 99% confidence The document is a notification released via RNS (Regulatory News Service) from J Sainsbury plc. It explicitly states that an application has been made for the admission of 15,000,000 ordinary shares to the Official List, detailing the reason (exercise of share options under various schemes). This action directly relates to the issuance of new shares and changes in the capital structure. This fits the definition of 'Share Issue/Capital Change' (SHA). Although it is distributed via RNS, the core subject matter is a capital change, making SHA the most specific classification over the general RNS fallback.

Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 100% confidence The document is identified by the RNS Number (5428V) and explicitly mentions 'Notification of transactions by Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities ('PDMRs')'. It details the purchase of shares by executives (Tim Fallowfield, Mark Given, etc.) and includes the required 'Notification of dealing form' structure, citing compliance with Market Abuse Regulation Article 19. This content directly corresponds to the reporting of insider trades by directors and executives, which maps to the 'Director's Dealing' category.
2020-08-07 English
Block listing Interim Review
Regulatory Filings Classification · 98% confidence The document is explicitly marked with an 'RNS Number' and contains information related to a 'BLOCK LISTING SIX MONTHLY RETURN' for J Sainsbury plc, covering share option schemes (Sharesave Plan and Long Term Incentive Plan) over a six-month period (Feb 1, 2020, to Jul 31, 2020). This is a specific regulatory filing related to the listing rules (LR3.5.7G) and is disseminated via RNS, the news service of the London Stock Exchange. While it deals with capital/share changes, the primary nature is a mandatory regulatory disclosure disseminated through the official channel. Since 'RNS' is defined as the general regulatory announcement/fallback category, and this is a specific type of regulatory return, it fits best under the general 'Regulatory Filings' category (RNS) as it is not a standard 10-K, ER, or CAP filing, but rather a specific compliance report submitted to the exchange.
2020-08-03 English
Total Voting Rights
Regulatory Filings Classification · 98% confidence The document is very short (1314 characters) and explicitly states it is an 'RNS Number' notification from the London Stock Exchange. The content details the total number of issued ordinary shares and the total number of voting rights as of a specific date (31 July 2020). This type of mandatory disclosure regarding capital structure and voting rights, especially when issued via RNS, fits best under the general regulatory announcement category. While it relates to capital, it is not a financing activity (CAP) or a share issue/change (SHA), but rather a mandatory disclosure of the current denominator for shareholder notifications. Given the context of being an RNS notification providing essential regulatory data that doesn't fit a more specific category like DVA (which is about *results* of a vote) or SHA (which is about *changing* the capital structure), the most appropriate classification is the general Regulatory Filings fallback (RNS).
