CT Progressive Income PLC Confirms 92,142,970 Voting Rights Denominator for October 2026

CT Progressive Income PLC, an investment trust managed and secretaried by Columbia Threadneedle Investment Business Limited, has filed its monthly total voting rights notice as required under FCA Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rule 5.6. The company confirms that as at 31 October 2026, the applicable denominator for shareholder notification purposes is 92,142,970 ordinary shares. This figure is derived by subtracting the 15,146,052 treasury shares from the total 107,289,022 ordinary shares of 25p each currently in issue. Treasury shares carry no voting rights and are therefore excluded from the calculation under standard regulatory practice.

How CT Progressive Income's 25p Ordinary Shares and Treasury Position Affect Shareholder Obligations

The distinction between total shares in issue and voting shares is significant for institutional and major shareholders who must monitor their percentage holdings against FCA notification thresholds. For CT Progressive Income PLC, the 15,146,052 shares held in treasury represent a meaningful portion of the overall issued share capital, and their exclusion reduces the denominator shareholders must use when calculating whether a disclosure obligation has been triggered. Any shareholder whose holding crosses a relevant FCA threshold relative to the 92,142,970 voting rights figure would be required to notify the company and the FCA accordingly.
