Filing Released Lang Actions
TR-1: Notification of Major Interest in Shares
Regulatory Filings Classification · 1% confidence The document is explicitly labeled with "RNS Number : 8593S" and contains the standard header/footer information associated with Regulatory News Service (RNS) releases from the London Stock Exchange. The content itself is a "TR-1: Standard form for notification of major holdings," which details changes in share ownership crossing a notification threshold (specifically, Ameriprise Financial, Inc. changing its holding to 16.992%). This type of mandatory disclosure regarding significant shareholdings falls under regulatory reporting. Since there is a specific category for general regulatory announcements that don't fit elsewhere, and this is a standard regulatory form submission, the most appropriate classification is RNS, which serves as the general regulatory filing category.

Company Announcement - General
Remuneration Information Classification · 1% confidence The document is identified by the 'RNS Number' header and the closing statement 'This information is provided by RNS The company news service from the London Stock Exchange'. The content details transactions (sales) of shares by directors and Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities (PDMRs) following the vesting of a Share Incentive Plan (SIP). This type of insider transaction reporting, especially involving directors' personal holdings, directly corresponds to the definition of Director's Dealing (DIRS). Although it is an RNS announcement, the specific nature of the content (director dealing) makes DIRS a more precise classification than the general RNS fallback.

Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 1% confidence The document is very short (1051 characters) and is titled 'Notification of transactions of directors, persons discharging managerial responsibility (PDMR) or connected persons'. It explicitly details the acquisition of ordinary shares by James Ullman, the Audit Director. This directly corresponds to the definition of Director's Dealing (insider trades). The presence of 'RNS Number' suggests it was released via the Regulatory News Service, but the content itself is a specific disclosure about director transactions.

Director/PDMR Shareholding
Director's Dealing Classification · 1% confidence The document is very short (826 characters) and contains an 'RNS Number' header, indicating it is a regulatory announcement from the London Stock Exchange. The content explicitly details a 'Notification of transactions of directors, persons discharging managerial responsibility (PDMR) or connected persons,' specifically mentioning the CEO acquiring shares. This directly matches the definition for Director's Dealing (DIRS). Although it is an RNS announcement, the specific nature of the content (insider trade) overrides the general RNS fallback.

Change of Results Date
Report Publication Announcement Classification · 1% confidence The document is very short (2101 characters) and its primary purpose is to announce a change in the date for the next trading update (from November 1st to November 8th, 2017). It explicitly mentions being an 'RNS Number' filing and states it is made to meet the requirements of the UK Listing Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules. This is not the trading update itself, but an announcement *about* the timing of a future report. According to Rule 2, when a document announces the timing or publication of another report, it should be classified as a Report Publication Announcement (RPA). Since it is a formal regulatory announcement via RNS regarding a future report schedule, RPA is the most specific fit, although RNS is also plausible. RPA is preferred as it specifically relates to the publication schedule.

Preliminary results - replacement announcement
Earnings Release Classification · 1% confidence The document explicitly states it contains 'PRELIMINARY RESULTS (For the 53 weeks ended 30 July 2017)' and provides detailed financial highlights, profit/loss figures, EPS, dividend information, and management commentary on performance. This structure is characteristic of an Earnings Release (ER) or an Interim/Quarterly Report (IR). Since the period covered is the full fiscal year (53 weeks), it is the primary annual results announcement, which often overlaps with the content of a 10-K but is typically released earlier and less comprehensive than the final 10-K filing. However, the content is a detailed summary of annual results, including historical comparisons and forward-looking statements, which aligns best with the definition of an Earnings Release (ER) or a comprehensive annual report summary. Given the presence of 'Preliminary Results' and the detailed financial tables covering the full year, it functions as the initial announcement of annual results. Furthermore, Note 4 states: 'The annual report and financial statements 2017 has been published on the Company's website on 15 September 2017.' This suggests the document itself, dated September 15, 2017, is the preliminary announcement preceding the final 10-K filing. The correction issued on September 20, 2017, further confirms this is a time-sensitive results announcement. Therefore, 'ER' (Earnings Release) is the most appropriate classification for this preliminary annual results announcement. FY 2017
