Norges Bank increased its holding in Coats Group on September 30, 2026, lifting its voting-rights position to 4.01 percent from 3.01 percent, according to Investegate on October 2, 2026. The notification covered 76,798,315 shares and gave the filing a concrete ownership signal ahead of the next results cycle.

Norges Bank crosses 4 percent

The position rose from 3.007270 percent to 4.005390 percent of voting rights, a 0.998120 percentage-point increase. The notification was reported to Coats Group on October 1, 2026, while the threshold was crossed on September 30, 2026, the filing states.

For investors, the important detail is the size of the disclosed holding rather than the unchanged daily quote. Norges Bank now ranks as a named institutional holder with more than four percent of the voting rights, giving the filing a measurable ownership dimension.

Revenue reaches GBP 1.46 billion

Coats Group generated GBP 1,464.9 million of revenue in fiscal year 2025, compared with GBP 1,433.0 million in fiscal year 2024, according to the Reuters market page. That represents growth of 2.23 percent, while net income increased to GBP 103.4 million from GBP 80.6 million, a 28.29 percent rise.

The same 2025 figures show operating cash flow of GBP 224.7 million, compared with GBP 95.8 million in fiscal year 2024. Coats Group operates across industrial threads, apparel and footwear components, and performance materials, so revenue growth and cash conversion provide separate measures of operating progress.
