Regulatory News:
Verallia (Paris:VRLA), the world's 3rd-largest producer of
glass packaging for food and beverages, has successfully completed
its 9th employee shareholding offer. On June 20, 2024, over 3,800
employees, including 73% of French employees, subscribed to this
program and became partners in the Group's development and
performance. Open from May 2 to May 17, 2024, in 9 countries, this
program enabled them to benefit from exclusive conditions for
acquiring a stake in the Group's capital - a 15% discount on the
share price and a favorable matching contribution plan.
Following on from previous years, this 9th edition confirms the
success of the Group's CSR strategy, by involving its employees in
the company's development and performance. By the close of business
on June 20, 2024, more than 3,800 employees, or 41% of eligible
employees in 9 countries, had invested in the Group, benefiting
from an attractive unit subscription price of 29.64 euros1. Total
employee investment (including the Company's matching contribution)
came to over 18.1 million euros.
At the close, 611,445 new ordinary shares, representing 0.5% of
the share capital and voting rights, were issued by the Company. As
in previous years, in order to neutralize the dilutive effect of
this operation, the Company also reduced its capital by cancelling
611,445 treasury shares acquired under the share buyback
program2.
In just 9 years, these operations have already enabled almost
50% of the Group's employees to become Verallia shareholders, and
more than 80% of French employees, both directly and through the
Verallia FCPE. Employees now own 4.5%3 of the Company’s
capital.
"The strong participation of our employees in this employee
shareholding program reflects their confidence in Verallia's
strategy and strong CSR ambitions. We are very proud that in 9
years, these operations have already enabled almost 50% of them
worldwide, and more than 80% in France, to become direct and
indirect shareholders in the company by acquiring almost 4.5% of
the capital during this period. This scheme demonstrates once again
that we are firmly committed to sharing value," stated Patrice
Lucas, CEO Verallia.
