Exercisable Rights and Treasury Holdings

According to the regulatory filing, the number of voting rights that may be effectively exercised is 731,469,293. This net figure is reached after subtracting 10,254,144 treasury shares, which are held by the company as of January 31, 2026, and do not carry voting power under current regulations.

Beyond the share counts, Veolia highlighted specific disclosure requirements within its internal governing documents. Under Article 8 of the company’s Articles of Association, investors are mandated to report whenever they cross specific shareholding thresholds. This internal clause acts as a supplement to standard French legal and regulatory frameworks, ensuring a higher level of transparency regarding shifts in the company’s ownership and influence.
