Filing Released Lang Actions
Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 100% confidence The document is explicitly marked with an 'RNS Number' and contains details about share transactions by a Director/PDMR (Person Discharging Managerial Responsibilities) named Eric Hutchinson and Nigel Wright. This type of filing, reporting insider trades or director dealings, corresponds directly to the definition for Director's Dealing (DIRS). Although it is distributed via RNS, the specific content dictates the DIRS classification over the general RNS fallback.

Trading Update
Earnings Release Classification · 99% confidence The document is explicitly labeled with an "RNS Number" and originates from "Spirent Communications PLC" on "15 January 2019". The title is "Trading Update 2018". It provides key financial highlights for the final quarter and the full year 2018, including order intake, revenue, and an expected adjusted operating profit range ($75M to $77M). This content structure—a brief update on recent performance, often preceding the full audited results—is characteristic of an Earnings Release (ER). Although it mentions the date for the full year results announcement (March 7, 2019), the document itself is the preliminary announcement of the results/performance update. Since it provides key financial figures and performance commentary, it fits the definition of an Earnings Release (ER) better than a general Regulatory Filing (RNS) or a Report Publication Announcement (RPA), as it contains the substance of the earnings news, not just an announcement that a report is coming.

Block listing Interim Review
Regulatory Filings Classification · 98% confidence The document is explicitly titled 'BLOCK LISTING SIX MONTHLY RETURN' and is issued via 'RNS Number', indicating it is a regulatory filing distributed through the London Stock Exchange's news service (RNS). It reports on the balance of unallotted securities under various employee share schemes for the period July 1, 2018, to December 31, 2018. This type of periodic return concerning share schemes and regulatory reporting fits best under the general 'Regulatory Filings' category (RNS), as there is no specific code for a 'Block Listing Six Monthly Return'. It is not a comprehensive financial report (10-K, IR), an earnings release (ER), or a specific management/board change announcement (MANG, DIRS).
2019-01-04 English
Total Voting Rights
Regulatory Filings Classification · 98% confidence The document is identified by the RNS Number header and explicitly states it is notifying the market in accordance with the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules. The core content provides the 'Total Voting Rights and Capital' as of a specific date (31 December 2018) and states the total number of voting rights (611,741,888). This type of mandatory disclosure regarding the total number of shares and voting rights, often published monthly or upon significant change, is a standard regulatory announcement. While it relates to capital structure, it is not a financing activity (CAP) or a share issue/repurchase (SHA/POS). It is a general regulatory notification disseminated via RNS. Since it is a specific regulatory update that doesn't fit the other precise categories (like DVA for voting results or DIV for dividends), the most appropriate classification is the general regulatory filing category, RNS, as it is explicitly distributed via the RNS service.

Annual Report 2018 - Corrected Version
Annual Report Classification · 100% confidence The document is explicitly titled 'ANNUAL REPORT 2018' for Spirent Communications plc. It contains comprehensive sections including a Strategic Report, Corporate Governance, Financial Statements (including auditor's report and consolidated financial statements), and other information. It is a full-length annual report, not an announcement or summary, and thus fits the definition of a 10-K (Annual Report). FY 2018

It contains comprehensive sections including a Strategic Report, Corporate Governance, Financial Statements (audited), and other company information. It covers the full fiscal year ending 31 December 2018. It is clearly the primary annual report document, not an announcement or summary. FY 2018
