Key terms and expected timetable of the proposed public tender offer for withdrawal followed by a mandatory squeeze-out
On 1 April 2026, after market close, the Board of Directors received a proposed public tender offer for withdrawal from SMABTP Group ("SMABTP Group" or the "Offeror"), the Company's majority shareholder holding 95.35% of its share capital and 95.36% of its voting rights, under which the Offeror proposes to acquire from the Company's shareholders all of their shares for a cash consideration of €8.20 per share.
In connection with this offer, SMABTP Group entered into share purchase agreements on 1 April 2026 with AG Real Estate and Suravenir, representing 0.67% and 0.86% respectively of the Company's share capital and voting rights.
SMABTP Group has also indicated that it intends to request the implementation of a mandatory squeeze-out procedure following the offer, as the conditions for its implementation have already been met[4].
The filing of the offer with the French Financial Markets Authority (AMF), which will review its compliance, is expected in the coming weeks.
Receipt of the proposed offer by the Company
Following a thorough review of the Offeror's proposal, the Board of Directors, which met on 2 April 2026, acknowledged SMABTP's intention to file a proposed offer.
In accordance with the provisions of the AMF General Regulation, the Board of Directors has formed, from among its members, an ad hoc Committee composed of independent directors within the meaning of the Middlenext Corporate Governance Code. The Committee is chaired by Ms Bibiane de Cazenove (independent director) and also includes Ms Christine Sonnier (independent director) and Ms Marie Wiedmer-Brouder (independent director).
Sorgem Evaluation, represented by Mr Thomas Hachette, has been appointed by the Board of Directors, on the recommendation of the ad hoc Committee, as independent expert to prepare a report on the fairness of the financial terms of the offer.
The reasoned opinion of the Board of Directors and the independent expert's report will be made public in due course as part of the Company's draft response document, the filing of which with the AMF will be the subject of a press release by the Company.
