Filing Released Lang Actions
Form of Proxy for 2014 AGM
Proxy Solicitation & Information Statement Classification · 99% confidence The document is explicitly titled 'Form of Proxy' and contains instructions for shareholders on how to appoint a proxy to vote on their behalf at the '2014 Annual General Meeting' (AGM). It lists specific resolutions to be voted upon, such as receiving the Annual Report, approving remuneration, electing directors, and authorizing share actions. This material is directly related to soliciting shareholder votes for the AGM, which falls under the definition of Proxy Solicitation & Information Statement (PSI). Although it relates to the AGM, it is the proxy form itself, not the AGM presentation (AGM-R) or the notice/information statement (DEF 14A is remuneration focused).

Total Voting Rights
Regulatory Filings Classification · 98% confidence The document is identified by the RNS Number (3356B) and explicitly states it is notifying the market in accordance with the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules regarding the 'TOTAL VOTING RIGHTS AND CAPITAL' as of a specific date (28 February 2014). This type of mandatory disclosure concerning the total number of shares and voting rights 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), but rather a periodic regulatory update required by the exchange/regulator. Since it is a specific regulatory notification that doesn't fit the other precise categories (like DVA, DIRS, DIV), the most appropriate classification is the general regulatory filing category, RNS, as it is explicitly sourced from RNS and serves as a mandatory disclosure.

Transaction in Own Shares
Transaction in Own Shares Classification · 99% confidence The document explicitly states the subject is 'Transaction in own shares' and details the purchase and subsequent cancellation of Ordinary Shares by Spirent Communications plc. This directly matches the definition for 'Transaction in Own Shares' (Code: POS). The document is short (1426 chars) and is a direct announcement of the transaction, not an announcement about a report, thus ruling out RPA/RNS as the primary classification.

Preliminary Results
Earnings Release Classification · 100% confidence The document explicitly states 'PRELIMINARY RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2013' and provides a detailed summary of financial performance (Revenue, Operating profit, EPS, Dividends) for the full year 2013, comparing it to 2012. This content structure is characteristic of an Earnings Release (ER) or a preliminary section of an Annual Report (10-K). However, since it is explicitly labeled 'PRELIMINARY RESULTS' and is presented as a press release format (RNS Number, date, contact info, announcement of results summary), it fits the definition of an Earnings Release (ER) which contains the initial announcement of periodical financial results (key highlights). While it contains more detail than a typical ER, the 'PRELIMINARY' nature distinguishes it from the final, audited 10-K. Given the context of financial highlights and the announcement format, ER is the most appropriate classification over the comprehensive 10-K. FY 2013

Transaction in Own Shares
Transaction in Own Shares Classification · 99% confidence The document explicitly states its purpose in the title: "Spirent Communications plc: Transaction in own shares". The text details the purchase and subsequent cancellation of 127,802 Ordinary Shares, including the average price paid. This directly corresponds to the definition of 'Transaction in Own Shares'. The RNS Number indicates it is a regulatory announcement, but the specific content points overwhelmingly to the POS classification.
2014-02-25 English
Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 98% confidence The document is explicitly marked with an 'RNS Number' and contains a notification regarding 'DIRECTOR / PDMR SHAREHOLDING'. It details the acquisition of shares by directors (Eric Hutchinson and Rachel Whiting) under an Employee Share Purchase Plan (ESPP) and references compliance with the Financial Conduct Authority's ("FCA") Disclosure and Transparency Rules. This content directly corresponds to insider trading reports or director dealings. The most specific category is 'Director's Dealing' (DIRS). Although it is an RNS announcement, the content is highly specific to DIRS, making DIRS the primary classification over the general RNS fallback.
