COVER NOTE TO FORM 8.3 DISCLOSURE
DCC plc - Rule 8.3 Opening Position and Dealing Disclosures
Date: | 1 July 2026 |
Discloser: | Mackenzie Financial Corporation |
Relevant security / offeree: | DCC plc |
Filing venue: | London Stock Exchange / RNS |
Related body: | Irish Takeover Panel |
Purpose of this note
This cover note is provided to accompany Mackenzie Financial Corporation's consolidated Form 8.3 filing in respect of DCC plc under Rule 8.3 of the Irish Takeover Panel Act, 1997, Takeover Rules, 2022.
Background
Mackenzie previously submitted Form 8.3 disclosures relating to DCC plc through Euronext Dublin. Those submissions were made in good faith on the basis that DCC plc is an Irish security and on Mackenzie's prior practice and understanding for Irish securities.
In connection with the 9 June 2026 filing, Mackenzie reviewed the appropriate publication venue and was advised by Euronext Dublin that DCC plc is not listed on Euronext Dublin and that the relevant submissions were not published.
Current corrective submission
To ensure public disclosure through the appropriate Regulatory Information Service, Mackenzie is now submitting the attached consolidated Form 8.3 disclosure package through the London Stock Exchange / RNS.
The attached package is intended to be read as a joint consolidated submission comprising: (i) the opening position disclosure as at 30 April 2026; and (ii) all subsequent dealing disclosures in DCC plc through the date of this filing, including the current dealing disclosure.
Mackenzie is also notifying the Irish Takeover Panel of this corrective filing and the steps taken to ensure that the relevant disclosures are publicly available through the appropriate venue.
