Welcome to our dedicated page for British Amer SEC filings (Ticker: BTI), a comprehensive resource for investors and traders seeking official regulatory documents including 10-K annual reports, 10-Q quarterly earnings, 8-K material events, and insider trading forms.
The British American Tobacco p.l.c. (BTI) SEC filings page brings together the company’s U.S. regulatory disclosures, primarily its annual report on Form 20-F and a series of current reports on Form 6-K. As a foreign private issuer with American Depositary Shares listed on the NYSE, British American Tobacco uses these filings to provide U.S. investors with information on its operations, capital structure, governance and financing activities.
Form 6-K filings for British American Tobacco frequently attach press releases and transaction documents as exhibits. These include announcements on transactions in own shares, details of share buyback programmes and their extensions, and updates on voting rights and capital. Such filings help investors track the evolution of the company’s equity base and the execution of authorised repurchases.
Another important group of filings relates to debt capital markets. British American Tobacco and its financing subsidiaries, such as B.A.T Capital Corporation and B.A.T. Netherlands Finance B.V., use Form 6-K to file underwriting agreements, supplemental indentures, prospectuses and press releases about the pricing of new notes offerings or tender offers for outstanding perpetual subordinated securities. Some of these exhibits are explicitly incorporated by reference into the group’s shelf registration statements on Form F-3, which govern the issuance of registered debt securities in the U.S. market.
Filings also cover governance and regulatory notifications, including TR-1 notifications of major holdings, board and committee changes, and notifications of transactions by persons discharging managerial responsibilities and persons closely associated with them. These documents provide insight into changes in significant shareholdings and the composition of the company’s leadership.
On this page, users can access these filings as they are made available through EDGAR, while AI-powered tools can help summarise lengthy exhibits, highlight key terms in notes offerings or tender offers, and clarify the implications of share buyback and voting rights announcements. This can be particularly useful when reviewing complex documentation such as supplemental indentures or multi-exhibit 6-K submissions.
