Based on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors at its meeting of April 8, 2021, recognized that:

  • neither of the two performance conditions had been met as the annual average growth in operating profit (before exceptional items and excluding currency impacts) was a negative 10.95% and Sodexo's TSR was a negative 17.7% against a positive 29.6% for the CAC 40 GR index. Consequently, the 8,400 performance shares granted by the Board of Directors on April 20, 2017 did not vest; 
  • the continued presence condition was met. Consequently, the remaining 5,600 restricted shares (i.e., not subject to performance conditions) vested and were delivered on April 27, 2020.

In recognition of Denis Machuel's contribution to the development of the Group, which he joined in 2007 and of which he has been the Chief Executive Officer since January 2018, and his actions during the Covid-19 crisis, and in accordance with the compensation policy approved by the Annual Shareholders Meeting of January 12, 2021 and recommendations 25.3.3 and 25.5.1 of the AFEP-MEDEF Code, the Board of Directors has decided to waive the presence condition applicable to the share plans in the process of vesting, and to maintain the share rights pro rata to his effective presence within the Group.

In accordance with the compensation policy approved by the Annual Shareholders Meeting of January 12, 2021, there will be no acceleration of the vesting period and the performance conditions of these plans will continue to apply.

Denis Machuel will therefore retain a portion of his rights to the plans granted in 2018, 2019 and 2020, i.e., 41,514 of the 75,000 initially granted. These shares amounted to 2,872,221 euro at the grant date as measured in accordance with IFRS. However, this measurement does not take into account the achievement of performance conditions measured at the end of the vesting period provided under the plans. These performance conditions are particularly stringent, as evidenced by the failure to meet the performance conditions related to the 2016 and 2017 plans. In addition, the performance criteria of the non-vested plans, including those granted to Denis Machuel, will be severely affected by the impact of the Covid-19 crisis on the Group's performance. The current number of shares that could be obtained under each plan and their values cannot be known at this stage.
