Paris, France, June 28, 2023 - Atos SE's Combined Annual General Meeting of shareholders was held today at the Company's headquarters and chaired by Mr. Bertrand Meunier, Chairman of the Board of Directors.
Despite the attempts to destabilize the Group, particularly in recent weeks, shareholder democracy was fully expressed.
It is therefore in a serene context that the General Meeting approved all the resolutions submitted to it and recommended by the Board of Directors, including:
After an exhaustive question-and-answer session, Atos shareholders followed the recommendation taken unanimously by the Atos Board of Directors of rejecting all four resolutions A to D proposed at the initiative of certain minority shareholders.
The detailed results of the votes as well as the replay of the Annual General Meeting itself will be available on the Atos website (in the section Investors – Annual General Meeting: https://atos.net/en/investors/annual-general-meeting).
Following the Combined Annual General Meeting, the Board of Directors is now composed of the following 14 members: Bertrand Meunier (Chairman of the Board of Directors), Elizabeth Tinkham* (Lead Independent Director), Vesela Asparuhova, Vivek Badrinath* , Valérie Bernis* , Laurent Collet-Billon* , Katrina Hopkins, Farès Louis, Jean-Pierre Mustier* , Aminata Niane, René Proglio* , Caroline Ruellan* , Vernon Sankey and Astrid Stange* .
* Independent directors.
Thus, in accordance with the diversity policy adopted by the Board of Directors and the AFEP-MEDEF Code to which the Company refers, the ratio of independent directors currently amounts to 73% (exclusive of employee directors and directors representing employee shareholders in accordance with the AFEP-MEDEF code's calculation guidelines).
The Board of Directors, meeting after the General Meeting, decided, on the recommendation of the Nomination and Governance Committee, to modify the composition of its committees as follows
Bertrand Meunier, Chairman of the Board of Directors, stated:
"I am delighted by the shareholders' renewed confidence in their Board of Directors. In particular, I note the strong support expressed by shareholders for the Board's proposals to appoint and/or renew Laurent Collet-Billon, Jean-Pierre Mustier and Caroline Ruellan to the Board. On behalf of the entire Board of Directors, I would like to thank the directors who have completed their terms of office for their commitment to Atos during many years, and for their important contribution to the Board's work during an essential period. This Annual General Meeting was also an opportunity to demonstrate the solid fundamentals of Atos' corporate governance and provide an update on the separation project and perspectives for the future. The Board of Directors, with its Nomination and Governance Committee, intend to continue renewing its membership and strengthening its skills, particularly in view of the planned group separation into two entities".
