Etude de l'AG du 23/06/2017

Proxinvest regrette principalement le manque de transparence de la communication de la société concernant les rémunérations des dirigeants mandataires sociaux. C'est, en effet, en raison de ce manque de transparence que Proxinvest recommande de s'opposer aux résolutions 8 à 12, relatives aux rémunérations des dirigeants.

Proxinvest regrette par ailleurs que la société maintienne la possibilité de l'usage de ces autorisations financières en période d'offre publique, en raison de leur possible utilisation comme arme anti-OPA. Proxinvest considère en effet que les OPA sont des opportunités d'enrichissement pour les actionnaires et que la mise en place de tels outils n'est pas favorable à leurs intérêts. C'est pour cette raison que Proxinvest recommande aux actionnaires de s'opposer à la totalité des autorisations financières.
