Atos SE (the “Company”) announces the implementation of a reverse stock split of the shares comprising its share capital, through the exchange of 10,000 old shares of €0.0001 par value for 1 new share of €1.00 par value.
Given the number of Atos shares issued during the capital increases carried out as part of the Company’s accelerated safeguard plan and the low share value, the reverse stock split aims to restore a normal number of shares, reduce share price volatility and support a new stock market dynamic.
The reverse stock split is a purely technical exchange transaction with no direct impact on the total value of the Company’s shares held by each shareholder.
For example, for a shareholder holding 30,000 shares before the operation:
(until April 23, 2025)
(from April 24, 2025)
(1) Value at the close of trading on March 6, 2025.
(2) Excluding price fluctuations.
Main terms and conditions of the reverse stock split
Following delegation of powers by the shareholders’ combined General Meeting of January 31, 2025 (29th resolution), the Board of Directors, at its meeting on March 6, 2025, decided on the terms and conditions of the reverse stock split, which are detailed below.
After this period, shareholders who have not been able to obtain a number of shares that is a multiple of 10,000 will be compensated by their financial intermediary in accordance with Articles L. 228-6-1 and R. 228-12 of the French Commercial Code and market practice.
Old shares that have not been consolidated will be delisted at the end of the reverse stock split period.
Pursuant to Articles L. 228-6-1 and R. 228-12 of the French Commercial Code and in accordance with the decision of the Board of Directors held on March 6, 2025, at the end of a period of thirty days from March 25, 2025, the new shares that could not be allocated individually and correspond to fractional rights will be sold on the stock market by the account holders, and the proceeds of the sale will be allocated in proportion to the fractional rights of each rights holder.
The old shares subject to the reverse stock split will be admitted to trading on the Euronext regulated market in Paris under ISIN code FR0000051732, until the last day of trading on April 23, 2025. The new shares resulting from the reverse stock split will be admitted to trading on the Euronext regulated market in Paris from April 24, 2025, the first day of trading, under ISIN code FR001400X2S4.
A notice of reverse stock split and suspension of the right to exercise share subscription warrants will be published in the Bulletin des Annonces Légales Obligatoires (BALO) on March 10, 2025.
