Paris, October 28, 2024 – JCDecaux
SE (Euronext Paris: DEC), the number one outdoor
advertising company worldwide, announced on 30 May 2023 that it had
signed an agreement with Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. to
acquire its business in Spain through the acquisition of the entire
share capital of Clear Channel Spain, subject to approval by the
Spanish competition authority (Comisión Nacional de los
Mercados y la Competencia, the "Spanish
Authority"). Following more than 14 months of
examination, JCDecaux regrets having to decide not to proceed
with this operation, which was supposed to complement its presence
in Spain, but whose economic and strategic interest, as well as its
implementation, are called into question by the indications
provided by the Spanish Authority on the nature, schedule and
implementation of the commitments required for its approval.
