2013 GENERAL MEETING – SHAREHOLDING AND VOTE ON RESOLUTIONS

2013 GENERAL MEETING – SHAREHOLDING AND VOTE ON RESOLUTIONS

Horizons 2012

Following the first global employee share scheme, the employee shareholder base increased from 3.1% to 3.5% of the capital. Launched last September, the “Horizons 2012” scheme offered Groupe SEB employees the chance to subscribe to an increase in capital at preferential rates (20% reduction on reference share price and a matching payment).

This plan was widely successful with more than 30% of employees in the 30 countries concerned subscribing, reflecting their confidence in the continued growth of the Group.

Shareholders

The shareholder structure remained stable overall, giving the Group’s General Management peace of mind to pursue its long-term strategy.

The founder group held a 43.4% stake in the capital as at 31/12/2012, a figure that remains more or less unchanged since the end of 2011.
