France's securities regulator, Autorité des Marchés Financiers ("AMF"), has just announced the results of Fimalac's share buyback offer ("the Offer"). The Offer period ran from 15 April to the close of trading on 12 May, after which Fimalac bought back all 1,700,000 shares concerned by the Offer, i.e., 6.32% of the share capital - which is made up of 26,920,000 shares - at a price of €101 per share.

Fimalac is delighted with the the Offer's successful outcome and would like to thank all of the shareholders who chose to take part. As the number of shares tendered to the Offer exceeded the maximum of 1,700,000 that Fimalac was offering to buy back, the financial intermediaries will reduce the number of shares bought back from each participating shareholder by around 2%, on a proportionate basis.

As announced by Fimalac during the Offer, all of the 1,700,000 shares bought back by the Company into treasury stock will be cancelled. After the shares are cancelled, Fimalac's majority shareholder Groupe Marc de Lacharrière, in concert with Marc Ladreit de Lacharrière, and also mainly Fondation Culture & Diversité, will hold 92.98% of the capital. Shares held in treasury stock prior to the Offer will represent 0.83% of the capital and the free float will amount to 6.19%.
