As of December 31, 2020, employees of the Group owned 1.32% of Rubis’ share capital and voting rights through the Rubis Avenir mutual fund. Since it was put in place in 2002, Rubis has launched a capital increase reserved for employees of eligible companies (companies with their registered office in France) every year. All of these operations have seen a high level of participation by the Group’s employees.

On January 6, 2020, upon the Combined Shareholders’ Meeting’s approval on June 11, 2019, the Management Board carried out a capital increase reserved for employees of eligible Group companies, by means of the Rubis Avenir mutual fund.

This average was €53.53, giving a subscription price of €37.48.

This transaction resulted in the subscription of 102,837 new shares in a total amount of €3,854,330.76, representing the payment of par value in the amount of €128,546.25 and a share premium in the amount of €3,725,784.51. The subscription rate by the Group’s employees was 52.82%.
