what happened
Societe Generale has reported that its stake in Gamma Communications PLC rose to 5.16% of voting rights, equal to 4,611,919 shares. The threshold was crossed on 2 November 2026 and the notice was issued on 3 November. The prior filing showed 4.89%, and the whole position is held in ordinary shares with no derivatives.
Separately, JPMorgan Chase & Co., through J.P. Morgan Securities PLC, disclosed a combined interest of 9.62%, or 8,586,113 voting rights. Of that, 2.75% is direct shareholding and 6.86% comes from cash-settled equity swaps. The previous notice stood at 8.84%, and the threshold date was 30 October 2026. The information was published by Holding(s) in Company.
why it matters
Filings of this kind follow UK rules that require disclosure when voting-rights thresholds are crossed. Cash-settled swaps give a bank economic exposure to the shares without formal ownership, so the gap between direct and total interest matters for reading the shareholder structure. The notices report positions only and do not state the intentions of the holders.
