Launch of a sixth Employee Share Ownership Plan

Paris, September 19, 2019 – Capgemini announces the launch of a sixth Employee Share Ownership Plan (ESOP).

The new employee share ownership plan is offered to approximately 98 % of the employees and is part of the Group’s policy to associate all employees with its development and performance. The employee shareholding resulting from previous ESOPs represents 5.9 % of Capgemini SE’s share capital. This sixth ESOP will be implemented through a capital increase reserved for the Capgemini employees for a maximum of 2,750,000 shares (i.e. 1.64 % of outstanding shares), with settlement-delivery no later than December 18, 2019. The main terms and conditions of this employee share ownership plan are detailed in an appendix to this press release.

As in 2018, the Board of Directors of Capgemini SE at its meeting of July 29, 2019 decided to authorize a dedicated share buyback envelope. This envelope could be used within the next 12 months[1] to neutralize all or part of the dilutive effect of this capital increase. The terms of these transactions are in accordance with the authorizations granted by the Shareholders’ Meeting of May 23, 2019.
