Purchase of a block of shares for the

On Friday June 24, 2022, ABC arbitrage acquired a block of 250,000 ABC arbitrage shares from AUBÉPAR INDUSTRIES SE. This acquisition, made at the price of 6.90€ per share, accounts for about 0.4% of the capital. The price represents a discount of about 2% on the closing price of Thursday June 23, 2022, discount justified by the quantity purchased.

This purchase allows the Group to provide, without dilution for its shareholders, the necessary shares for its remuneration commitments in the form of employee equity incentives up to the end of 2022, be that "Performance Shares" or Stock Options.

All the information relating to the group's capital products can be accessed on the ABC arbitrage website, in the Annual Financial Report 2021 on pages 9 to 11. The document can be downloaded from the following link: Annual Financial Report 2021¹.
