Total Voting Rights financial
"Total Voting Rights In conformity with the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance"
The total voting rights number is the count of shares that carry the right to vote at a company’s shareholder meetings, reflecting how much voting power exists in the market. Investors use it to understand control and influence—like knowing how many votes are in play when measuring ownership stakes, calculating a shareholder’s voting percentage, or assessing how easy it would be for a holder to sway decisions.
Treasury financial
"of which 256,112,615 Ordinary Shares were held in Treasury."
The treasury is the department or area within a government or organization responsible for managing its money, finances, and financial strategies. It handles tasks like collecting revenue, paying bills, and planning for future financial needs, much like a household manages its budget. For investors, understanding the treasury is important because it influences interest rates, government spending, and overall economic stability.
