In order to accelerate its deleveraging, Casino Group announces that it has initiated a study of a potential new sale of part of its stake* in Assaí for an amount of approximately US\$600 million, which could be increased depending on market conditions.
No final decision has been made on this potential transaction, which would take the form of a secondary public offering.
In this context, Casino Group has instructed a banking syndicate and has asked Assaí's teams to carry out the preliminary work for a possible transaction.
