The group specializing in collective catering and services has released its monthly regulatory statement regarding the composition of its share capital. As of December 31, 2025, Sodexo had 147,454,887 shares making up its capital.
Details of Share Capital and Voting Rights
According to the press release issued on January 6, 2026, Sodexo's share capital consisted of 147,454,887 shares as of December 31, 2025. The company reports that the number of exercisable voting rights stands at 215,840,029, while the theoretical number of voting rights reaches 218,066,504. This discrepancy is explained by the mechanism of double voting rights and the holding of treasury shares, as specified in the company's regulatory information.
Voting Rights and Share Categories
According to the document, all company shares have the same voting rights, except for two specific categories. Treasury shares are deprived of voting rights, in accordance with applicable regulations. Additionally, shares held in registered form for at least four years benefit from double voting rights, Sodexo explains. The number of theoretical voting rights is calculated based on all shares that have attached voting rights, whether single or double, including shares temporarily deprived of voting rights.
Regulatory Compliance and Corporate Information
This monthly declaration is part of the regulatory obligations imposed by Article L.233-8-II of the Commercial Code and Article 223-16 of the General Regulation of the Financial Markets Authority. Sodexo, headquartered in Issy-les-Moulineaux, thus publishes each month information relating to the total number of voting rights and shares making up its share capital. The group, which had a market capitalization of 8.3 billion euros as of October 22, 2025, according to its own data, employs 426,000 staff as of August 31, 2025, and reported consolidated revenue of 24.1 billion euros for the fiscal year 2025.
