Recent filings

Filing Released Lang Actions
Trading update
Regulatory Filings Classification · 95% confidence The document is a trading update for the 26 week period ending 28 February 2026, providing revenue performance and outlook commentary. It includes detailed financial performance metrics for various regions and business segments but does not contain full financial statements or comprehensive financial analysis typical of an Interim/Quarterly Report. The document is relatively short (4651 characters) and is an update on trading performance rather than a full report. It also states that the Group will announce its Interim results on 23 April 2026, indicating this is a preliminary trading update rather than the interim report itself. Therefore, this document fits best as a Regulatory Filing (RNS) since it is a general regulatory announcement and trading update without full financial statements or detailed analysis.
2026-03-05 English
Total Voting Rights
Regulatory Filings Classification · 100% confidence The document is a standard regulatory notification regarding 'Voting Rights and Capital' issued by WH Smith PLC in accordance with the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules. It specifies the total number of voting rights (denominator) for shareholders. This type of filing is a routine regulatory disclosure required by stock exchanges and does not fit into specific categories like M&A, dividends, or financial reports. Therefore, it falls under the 'Regulatory Filings' (RNS) category.
2026-02-27 English
Block Listing Six Monthly Return
Regulatory Filings Classification · 100% confidence The document is titled 'BLOCK LISTING SIX MONTHLY RETURN' and provides details about the WH Smith Sharesave Scheme and Executive Share Option Scheme for the period from 25.08.25 to 24.02.26. It includes balances of unallotted securities and notes no securities were issued/allotted during the period. The document is short (2489 characters) and is a regulatory submission to the London Stock Exchange's National Storage Mechanism, typical of regulatory filings related to share schemes. It does not contain financial statements, management discussion, or detailed financial data. It is not an announcement of a report but a regulatory compliance filing. Therefore, it fits best under Regulatory Filings (RNS), which is the fallback category for miscellaneous regulatory announcements that do not fit other specific categories.
2026-02-25 English
Notice of GM
Regulatory Filings Classification · 95% confidence The document is a notice convening a general meeting to approve the appointment of a new Executive Chairman and the grant of a share award. It includes a Notice of General Meeting and Proxy Form, and it states these documents have been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will be made available to shareholders. The document is short (2846 characters) and primarily serves as an announcement of the meeting and related documents, not the meeting materials themselves or the results. Therefore, it is an announcement related to a general meeting rather than the meeting materials or voting results. This fits the category of Regulatory Filings (RNS) as a general regulatory announcement that does not fit more specific categories like AGM Information or Declaration of Voting Results.
2026-02-12 English
WH Smith Deed of Grant
Remuneration Information Classification · 95% confidence The document is a detailed legal deed titled 'Deed of Grant of Share Option' between WH Smith PLC and an executive, Leo Quinn. It outlines the terms and conditions of a share option grant, including vesting schedules, exercise conditions, claw-back provisions, and corporate actions affecting the option. This is a formal agreement related to executive compensation and share options, not a financial report, earnings release, or regulatory announcement. It does not contain financial statements, audit information, or management discussion of financial results. It is also not a notice of share issuance or capital change in the typical sense of a public announcement but a contractual document governing share options. The closest fitting category is 'Remuneration Information (DEF 14A)' which covers reports detailing compensation for top executives and directors, including share option grants and related agreements. Therefore, the document should be classified as DEF 14A with high confidence.
2026-02-12 English
WH Smith PLC GM Proxy Form 2026
Proxy Solicitation & Information Statement Classification · 95% confidence The document is a Form of Proxy and Attendance Card for a General Meeting scheduled on 12 March 2026. It includes instructions for shareholders on how to appoint proxies, vote on resolutions, and attend the meeting. The content is focused on facilitating shareholder voting and attendance rather than presenting financial results, management discussion, or regulatory disclosures. There is no indication of financial data, audit information, or report publication. The document is clearly related to the Annual General Meeting process, specifically proxy solicitation and voting instructions. Therefore, the document fits the category of Proxy Solicitation & Information Statement (PSI). The document length (9478 characters) supports it being a full proxy form rather than a brief announcement or notice.
