PRESS RELEASE

BY KAUFMAN & BROAD FOLLOWING THE crossing by promogim of THE 20% THRESHOLDS OF THE SHARE CAPITAL

AND VOTING RIGHTS OF THE COMPANY

 

 

The Board of Directors of Kaufman & Broad noted that Promogim Groupe SAS declared on April 21, 2022, to hold 4,265,000 shares of the company Kaufman & Broad.SA representing 20.01 %[1] of its capital and to have exceeded the legal threshold of 20% in voting rights[2] with 5,569,668, on April 21, 2022 with 20.58% of the company's theoretical voting rights.

 

The Board of Directors of Kaufman & Broad SA acknowledges:

 

* the crossing by Promogim Groupe SAS of the 20% thresholds of the share capital and voting rights of the company

* It also takes note of Promogim's repeated statement that it does not plan to acquire control of Kaufman & Broad or to request the appointment of a director, as well as its confidence in the management, prospects and group strategy.

* It reiterates its concern that Promogim is a residential developer directly competing with Kaufman & Broad, and indicates that it will remain very attentive to the issue of potential conflicts of interest and will ensure the preservation of the interests of all of the company's shareholders.

* It also reiterates its commitment to maintaining the Group's specific culture, which is characterized in particular by a core shareholder base closely involved in the management of Kaufman & Broad, consisting of Kaufman & Broad employees, which is a guarantee of the motivation of the teams, the creation and sharing of value, and the ongoing development of the Group.
