EQUITY AND EARNINGS PER SHARE NOTE 6 — EQUITY NOTE 6.1
The voting right attached to shares is proportional to the capital that they represent. Each share carries the right to a single vote. Certain shares are entitled to a double voting right, providing they are fully paid up and have been registered in nominative form for at least four years in the name of the same shareholder at the end of the calendar year preceding each General Meeting.
Transactions between shareholders Note 6.1.1
In the event of acquisition of additional interests in a subsidiary, the difference between the price paid and the book value of non-controlling interests acquired and any related acquisition costs is recognised as a reduction of the Group’s consolidated shareholders’ equity, and vice versa in case of disposal of interests without loss of control.
EARNINGS PER SHARE NOTE 6.2
Net earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit for the financial period by the average number of shares in issue over the period net of treasury shares held. Only treasury shares held by the Group and allocated at the closing to stock options plans or free shares allocations guarantee a dilutive effect on the calculation of diluted earnings per share. The Group has not issued any securities giving future access to capital.
Note 6.1.2 Treasury shares
The Group holds treasury shares for the following purposes: to stimulate the secondary market or ensure the liquidity of – the Somfy SA share, by way of an investment services provider within a liquidity contract that complies with practices recognised by regulations; to retain the shares purchased and subsequently exchange – them or use them as payment within the framework of potential acquisitions; to ensure the coverage of stock option plans and/or free – share allocation plans (or similar) granted to employees and/or corporate officers of the Group, as well as all other shares allocated under a company or group savings scheme (or similar), in relation to employee profit-sharing and/or any other form of allocation to employees and/or corporate officers of the Group; to cover marketable securities giving right to the allocation of – company shares, in accordance with applicable regulations; to proceed with the possible cancellation of shares acquired. – Treasury shares directly held by the Group or through a liquidity contract are recognised as a reduction from equity. On their disposal, the consideration received for the disposal of treasury shares is directly recognised as an increase of Group equity, no gain or loss is thus recognised in net profit/loss for the financial year.
