Elis Launches Its 2026 Employee Share Ownership Plan With a 30% Discount
The textile services group has detailed the terms of its "Elis for All" 2026 plan, reserved for employees in France and nineteen other countries. The operation is based on two capital increases without preferential subscription rights.
Two Capital Increases Reserved for Employees
Elis announced on September 3, 2026 the launch of a new employee share ownership operation called "Elis for All" 2026. The Managing Board decided on July 30, 2026, on the basis of the delegations granted by the Extraordinary General Meeting of May 21, 2026, to proceed with two capital increases through the issuance of shares without preferential subscription rights.
One is reserved for employees who are members of Elis's Group Savings Plan, the other for employees of foreign subsidiaries. The group presents this operation as part of the development of employee share ownership, one of its objectives, intended to more closely associate employees with future developments and performance.
30% Discount and Capital Ceiling of 0.86%
The offer includes a so-called "classic" formula with a 30% discount compared to the reference price and a bonus of one share offered for every ten shares subscribed. A common ceiling of a nominal amount of 2,000,000 euros, i.e. 2,000,000 shares, applies to the two capital increases, representing 0.86% of the share capital as of the Managing Board's decision date.
The scope covers French entities that are members of the Group Savings Plan and foreign subsidiaries established in nineteen countries, including Germany, Spain, Italy, the United Kingdom, Brazil and Mexico. According to the indicative timetable, the subscription price is to be fixed on September 11, 2026, the subscription period to run from September 15 to October 1, 2026, and the completion of the capital increases to take place on November 10, 2026.
