Proxy Report - 02/05/2018

Cette année encore, la communication de la société concernant les rémunérations n’est pas améliorée et reste en deçà des pratiques françaises et européennes. Ainsi, la société ne communique toujours pas les taux de réalisation de chacun des critères du bonus annuel, empêchant ainsi une parfaite compréhension des montants attribués : en effet, l’un des critères financiers est en hausse, mais la société l’apprécie « en dessous de la cible » tandis que l’autre critère financier est en baisse, mais la société l’apprécie « au-dessus de la cible ». Ce manque de communication alors que M. Brandicourt perçoit une rémunération 2017 de 9,75 M€ (488 SMICs) est inacceptable.

Le mandat de M. Brandicourt est en renouvellement cette année. Bien que la séparation des fonctions soit fortement appréciée, nous regrettons fortement son manque d’investissement personnel (6% de son fixe seulement). Comme annoncé en 2013, lorsque le dirigeant ne détiendra pas un minimum de six mois de rémunération fixe, son renouvellement fera l’objet d’une opposition. Aussi, nous ne soutenons pas son renouvellement.
