Criteo (NASDAQ: CRTO) details shareholder vote on Luxembourg redomiciliation

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Criteo S.A. is reminding shareholders about its general meeting on February 27, 2026 in Paris to vote on proposals related to the company’s proposed redomiciliation from France to Luxembourg. A recent French decree changed the record date rules, so only shareholders of record as of February 20, 2026 at 00:00 (Paris time) may vote.

Shareholders can vote in person, by mail, or by granting a proxy to the chairperson, another shareholder, or certain family members, with proxy materials due to Uptevia by February 23, 2026. The communication highlights extensive forward-looking risk factors that could prevent or delay the redomiciliation, including failure to obtain shareholder approval, exceeding thresholds for cash withdrawals, listing issues on Nasdaq, legal or regulatory actions, operating under Luxembourg law, and a potential later merger into a U.S. subsidiary. It directs investors to a Form S-4 registration statement and proxy statement/prospectus filed with the SEC, and to Criteo’s investor relations site, for full details on the transaction and voting materials.

Cross-border corporate actions analyst

Criteo advances shareholder vote on shifting its legal home to Luxembourg, outlining conditions and risks.

Criteo is moving ahead with a shareholder meeting on February 27, 2026 to approve proposals tied to redomiciling from France to Luxembourg. A new French decree resets the record date to the fifth business day prior, fixing voting rights as of February 20, 2026.

The communication emphasizes that completion depends on several conditions, including shareholder approval, limits on cash withdrawals linked to the transaction, and maintaining a Nasdaq listing after redomiciliation. It also flags potential disruption to operations and relationships, as well as added complexity from operating under Luxembourg law and a possible later merger into a U.S. subsidiary.

For investors, the key elements are the contingent nature of the move, the possibility that the board may defer or abandon the redomiciliation shortly before the meeting, and the detailed risk factors incorporated by reference from prior SEC filings and the Form S-4. Subsequent disclosures in ongoing SEC and shareholder communications will clarify whether these conditions are ultimately satisfied.

The following is being mailed to holders of Criteo’s ordinary shares in connection with the general meeting of shareholders.

Paris, February 17, 2026

Dear Shareholder,

Reference is made to the convening notice that was sent to you on January 22, 2026 (the “Convening Notice”) regarding the general meeting of the shareholders of Criteo S.A. (“Criteo” or the “Company”) to be held on February 27, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., Paris time (the “General Meeting”), at the Company’s registered office at 32 Rue Blanche, 75009 Paris, France, for the purposes set forth on the enclosed agenda which has remained unchanged since the Convening Notice, in connection with the proposed redomiciliation of the Company from France to Luxembourg.

Following the publication of French Decree No. 2026-94 of February 13, 2026 relating to the modernization of communication methods with shareholders of certain commercial companies, which has entered into force on February 16, 2026, amending in particular Article R. 225-86 of the French Commercial Code, the record date for any general meeting is now set at the fifth business day prior to the date of that general meeting (previously two business days).

The record date for the General Meeting is therefore now set on February 20, 2026 at 00:00 (Paris time), meaning that only shareholders of record at that time are entitled to vote at the General Meeting. You have the right to (i) vote at the General Meeting, (ii) vote in advance by submitting your voting card by mail, (iii) grant your voting proxy directly to the chairperson of the General Meeting, or (iv) grant your voting proxy to another shareholder, your spouse or your partner with whom you have entered into a civil union, provided in each case that you are the holder of record of ordinary shares of the Company on the record date. You may ultimately decide to vote in person at the General Meeting by requesting an admission card by checking the appropriate box on your proxy card.

If you choose to vote by mail, the deadline for sending your proxy card by mail remains unchanged. Thus, your proxy card must be received by Uptevia by February 23, 2026, in order to be taken into account. If you cast your vote by appointing the chairperson of the General Meeting as your proxy, the chairperson of the General Meeting will vote your ordinary shares in accordance with the Company’s board of directors’ recommendations. If you appoint another shareholder, your spouse or your partner with whom you are in a civil union to act as your proxy, such proxy must be written and made known to the Company, and such person’s proxy must be received by Uptevia, by February 23, 2026 in order to be taken into account.

Please refer to the proxy supplement expected to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on or around February 17, 2026, for additional information.
