Filing Released Lang Actions
Holding(s) in Company
Major Shareholding Notification Classification · 98% confidence The document explicitly starts with "RNS Number : 5581N" and concludes with information about RNS, the news service of the London Stock Exchange, stating it is approved by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to act as a Primary Information Provider. The content itself is a "TR-1: Standard form for notification of major holdings," detailing an acquisition/disposal of voting rights by Ameriprise Financial, Inc. This type of mandatory disclosure regarding significant changes in share ownership thresholds is a standard regulatory filing. Since there is a specific category for 'Major Shareholding Notification' (MRQ), that is the most precise fit over the general 'Regulatory Filings' (RNS).

Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 100% confidence The document is clearly identified by the header 'RNS Number : 0483N' and contains details about a 'DIRECTOR / PDMR SHAREHOLDING'. It reports the purchase of shares by an executive (Paula Bell, CFO) and specifies the transaction details, date, and resulting total holding. This type of filing, reporting personal share transactions by company directors and executives, directly corresponds to the definition of 'Director's Dealing'. The presence of the RNS distribution boilerplate confirms it is a regulatory announcement, but the specific content points to DIRS over the general RNS code.

Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 100% confidence The document is titled 'DIRECTOR / PDMR SHAREHOLDING' and details transactions (Acquisition of shares via the Spirent Dividend Reinvestment Plan) made by a Non-Executive Director (Gary Bullard) and a Person Closely Associated with him. This type of filing, reporting personal share transactions by company directors and executives, directly corresponds to the definition of Director's Dealing. The presence of 'RNS Number' and the footer referencing RNS (the news service of the London Stock Exchange) confirms it is a regulatory disclosure, but the specific content points to DIRS over the general RNS category. It is not a full financial report (10-K, IR) or an earnings announcement (ER).
2021-09-21 English
Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 100% confidence The document is identified by the 'RNS Number' header and contains specific details about a transaction involving a Director/PDMR (Person Discharging Managerial Responsibilities), specifically the CFO, Paula Bell. Section 4 details the 'Nature of the transaction' as 'Purchase of Dividend shares under the Spirent UK Employee Share Purchase Plan 2005'. This type of filing, reporting insider share transactions by directors, directly corresponds to the definition of Director's Dealing (DIRS). Although it is distributed via RNS, the specific content dictates the DIRS classification over the general RNS fallback.
2021-09-20 English
Total Voting Rights
Declaration of Voting Results & Voting Rights Announcements Classification · 100% confidence The document is titled 'TOTAL VOTING RIGHTS AND CAPITAL' and explicitly states the total number of voting rights (611,741,888) as of a specific date (31 August 2021), issued under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules. This type of mandatory notification regarding the total number of shares and voting rights is a standard regulatory disclosure. While it relates to capital structure, it is not a financing announcement (CAP) or a share issue/change (SHA) in the sense of a transaction, but rather a periodic required disclosure of the current share count denominator. Since there is no specific code for 'Total Voting Rights Notification', and it is a mandatory regulatory announcement distributed via RNS, it fits best under the general 'Regulatory Filings' (RNS) category, as it is a routine compliance filing rather than a specific event like a dividend or management change. Given the document length is relatively short (under 5,000 characters) and it is a standard regulatory update, RNS is the most appropriate general classification.
2021-09-01 English
Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 100% confidence The document is identified by the 'RNS Number' header and explicitly mentions 'RNS, the news service of the London Stock Exchange'. The content details a 'DIRECTOR / PDMR SHAREHOLDING' transaction involving a CFO (Paula Bell) purchasing shares under an employee plan. This type of insider transaction report, especially when filed via RNS, directly corresponds to the definition of Director's Dealing (insider trades). Therefore, the correct classification is DIRS.
