QUILTER PLC - Form 8.3 announcement

What this filing means

Quilter PLC has filed a Form 8.3 under the UK Takeover Code, disclosing it holds a 0.08% stake (444,816 shares) in Picton Property Income Limited — the offeree in a likely takeover involving a LondonMetric/Schroder consortium — and made a small purchase of 12,054 shares on 1 July 2026. The filing is a routine regulatory disclosure of passive shareholder interests and does not contain information about Quilter's own financial performance, strategy, or solvency.

This is a UK Takeover Code filing telling the market who owns shares in Picton Property Income — Quilter happens to be one of those small shareholders, with less than one-tenth of one percent. Quilter bought a tiny extra slice (about 12,000 shares) on 1 July, but this tells you nothing about how Quilter itself is performing. Think of it like a government gazette: informative, but not a reason to change your view on Quilter.
