Claranova SE - Assemblée Générale des Actionnaires du 29 Juillet 2020

Gouvernance
La société propose la nomination de 3 administrateurs. Si l'on regrettera que la société ne donne pas les raisons pour lesquelles ces candidats ont été choisis, Proxinvest n'a pas identifié de conflit d'intérêts potentiels et soutient leurs nominations.

Augmentation de capital réservée (résolution 4)
Lors de l’AG de décembre 2019, la même résolution avait été proposée et l'association ADANOVA avait proposé une résolution alternative. Faute de quorum, la résolution de la société n’avait pas été soumise aux voix et faute de preuve de détention de la part de capital nécessaire, la résolution alternative d’ADANOVA avait été retirée du vote.
La rédaction ici proposée semble résulter d'un compromis entre la société et l'association, ce qui est un signe de bonne écoute de la part de la société.
Toutefois, cette augmentation de capital peut être utilisée comme arme anti-OPA très puissante, ce qui ne respecte pas nos principes et le jeu de l’offre et des surenchères. Nous ne la soutenons donc pas.
