Ingenico - AGM and EGM 11 June 2019
On 5 November 2018, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Philippe Lazare was replaced by Nicolas Huss as Chief Executive Officer and Bernard Bourigeaud as Chairman of the Board. The functions of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer are now separated.
This change leads to approval of the cooptation and appointment of Nicolas Huss to the Board of Directors (resolutions 7 and 8).
The Board's high level of independence (67%) also allows us to support the other five appointments and renewals of directors (resolutions 9 to 13).
REMUNERATION
The remuneration due to Philippe Lazare for 2018 will be supported. Indeed, the latter has waived his annual bonus and the severance payment of € 1.5 million does not seem excessive compared to a stock market trajectory during his term as Chief Executive Officer (2007-2018), which saw the share price triple (resolution 14).
Due to a lower fixed remuneration than his predecessor, Nicolas Huss' remuneration policy for 2019 will be supported despite a structure that could be improved (resolution 17).
