Amcor stock falls after Raymond James reiterates Market Perform rating
LONDON - Investment management firm BlackRock (NYSE:BLK), Inc. has reported a significant stake in Dalata Hotel Group plc, according to a recent disclosure filed with the Irish Takeover Panel. As of Wednesday, BlackRock holds a total interest of 2.46% in the company, amounting to 5,218,348 ordinary shares, and a short position of 0.59%, which translates to 1,255,862 shares.
The disclosure, which follows the rules under the Irish Takeover Panel Act of 1997 and Takeover Rules of 2022, indicates that BlackRock’s dealings in the securities took place on April 16, 2025. The transactions included both the purchase of 3,549 Dalata Hotel Group shares at a price of EUR 5.1500 each and the sale of 5,670 shares at the same price.
Dalata Hotel Group plc operates hotels primarily in Ireland and the United Kingdom (TADAWUL:4280), and this move by BlackRock may suggest confidence in the hospitality sector, which has been recovering from the impacts of the pandemic.
The filing did not reveal any agreements, arrangements, or understandings related to the voting rights of the relevant securities under any options or derivatives. It also stated that there were no attachments to the form, such as a Supplemental Form 8, which would provide additional details on stock-settled derivative positions or agreements to purchase or sell relevant securities.
The information disclosed by BlackRock is a routine regulatory requirement for entities holding interests and short positions representing 1% or more in a company involved in a takeover situation. It is intended to ensure transparency in the market and provide investors with pertinent information about significant shareholdings and short positions in publicly traded companies.
This disclosure has been made to a Regulatory Information Service and is based on a press release statement. It is part of the standard practice for market participants to announce their positions in companies, allowing for a fair and orderly market.
