GENERAL SHAREHOLDERS’ MEETING,
SEPTEMBER 27, 2023
Paris, September 27, 2023 - The
Annual General Meeting of shareholders of Ubisoft was held on 27
September 2023 in Paris and was chaired by Mr. Yves Guillemot,
Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer.
At this meeting, the shareholders present or
represented held an aggregate 78.97% of the outstanding shares.
All resolutions were approved, highlighting the
broad support and confidence of the shareholders in Ubisoft’s
strategy.
In particular, the shareholders have voted for
the appointments of two new independent directors, Katherine Hays
and Olfa Zorgati. Ubisoft welcomes them to its Board of Directors
and looks forward to benefiting from their respective expertise and
experience, which will contribute to support Ubisoft's strategy and
development in the coming years.
The shareholders also renewed the terms of
office of Corinne Fernandez-Handelsman and Belén Essioux-Trujillo
as independent directors.
With these appointments and the additional
Director refreshments made during recent years, Ubisoft continues
to strengthen its Board in order to benefit from high-caliber
profiles who bring a diverse set of skills and expertise,
particularly in video games, finance, human resources and
management of large organizations. Independent members account for
55% of the Board’s composition.
The Board also expresses its gratitude for the
many years of service of two out-going independent directors,
Florence Naviner, out-going Chair of the Audit Committee and Didier
Crespel, out-going Lead Independent Director. Claude France, who
joined the Board in July 2022 to bring her digital and tech
expertise and experience managing large scale organizations, has
been appointed as the new Lead Independent Director as well as
Chairwoman of the Audit & Risk Committee.
Yves Guillemot, Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer, said, “I would like to thank our shareholders for their
robust support. By voting in favor of all the resolutions presented
to them today, they have demonstrated their confidence in the
strategy decided on by the Board and implemented by Ubisoft's
management team. This vote strengthens our determination to
accelerate the execution of our roadmap and the resulting value
creation for the benefit of all our stakeholders.”
Ubisoft thanks the shareholders who attended the
General Meeting for their valuable contributions to the
discussions.
