Paris, 15 June 2021

No appeal filed against the French financial markets authority's decision granted on the proposed conversion of Lagardère SCA into a joint-stock company

Lagardère SCA (the "Company") received confirmation from the registry of the Paris Court of Appel that no appeal was filed against the decision of the French financial markets authority's (Autorité des marchés financiers – AMF) having considered that the conversion of the Company into a joint-stock company does not require the launching of a tender offer1.
