Shareholder structure May 30, 2011
The current shareholder structure is a derivation of the original structure and dates from AREVA’s foundation on September 3, 2001. Development has occurred as follows:
- Numerous shareholders (Total, EDF etc.) exchanged a number of minority holdings (primarily in COGEMA [now AREVA NC] and Framatome SA [now AREVA NP]) for shares in the new AREVA group.
- The holdings of the original shareholder, the CEA were consolidated from 95.1% to 73,03% following these transactions and following the increase capital reserved to KIA and the French State (December 2010) and the issuance of prefered shares without voting right.
Since May 30, 2011 AREVA’s entire capital has been listed in the form of ordinary shares.
* KIA stands for Kuwait Investment Authority and is the sovereign fund of the state of Kuwait.
