(News Bulletin 247) – Vergnet formalized its decision on Wednesday to carry out a consolidation of the company’s shares in order to reduce the number of shares in circulation, a source of volatility and management difficulties.
At the end of the operation, 7,600 old shares with a nominal value of 0.0001 euro will give the right to one new share with a nominal value of 76 centimes.
