BOULOGNE-BILLANCOURT, France--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:

Carmila (Paris:CARM):

To date, all of Carmila's shopping centres in France have reopened on Monday, May 11, but some businesses remain closed by decree (restaurants, leisure, etc.) and the conditions required for reopening shopping centres in Spain and Italy are only partially disclosed.

To preserve liquidity and financial soundness of the Company in a period when the conditions for resuming full activity of all Carmila centres are not entirely known, the Carmila Board of Directors met today and decided to submit to the General Meeting, which will take place behind closed doors on June 29, 2020 at 9:30 am, the payment of a dividend of €1.0 per share versus €1.50 [] initially considered.

Shareholders will be offered the option to receive this dividend in shares. The new shares, if the option is exercised, will be issued at a price equal to 95% of the average opening prices quoted on the regulated market of Euronext Paris during the twenty trading days preceding the Annual General meeting, less the net amount of the dividend and rounded upward to the nearest euro cent.

Carrefour and the institutional shareholder members of the Carmila Board representing 78% of the capital have already committed to opt for the payment of the dividend in shares up to a minimum of 50% of their dividend. Thus, Carmila’s equity base will be strengthen by at least 121 million euros.
