8.1.4 ADR program

Since Sodexo’s voluntary delisting from the New York Stock Exchange in 2007, Sodexo American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) are traded on the over-the-counter (OTC) market, ticker SDXAY, with five ADRs representing one Sodexo share. Advantages for U.S. investors:

• U.S. brokers purchase, sell and settle the ADRs in the same way as they would for the shares of a U.S. Company;
• the prices of the ADRs are quoted in U.S. dollars and the dividends are paid in U.S. dollars;
• ADRs are a straightforward and effective way of enabling U.S. investors to invest in international companies;
• during the Pluxee spin-off in the form of a dividend, as Pluxee does not have an ADR program, Citibank sold the Pluxee shares and distributed the proceeds of the sale to each ADR holder.
