Shareholders back major treasury share cancellations and capital reduction.

Shareholders of Sequans Communications S.A. approved resolutions to cancel a significant block of shares held by the company and to authorize further cancellations. This reduces stated share capital and removes treasury shares that were already excluded from voting.

The meeting had very high participation, with 1,447,882,094 ordinary shares representing 99.9% of ordinary shares outstanding as of the record date being voted. Support levels for the capital reduction resolutions were strong, indicating alignment between shareholders and the Board’s recommendations.

The immediate cancellation of 151,697,300 shares and the authorization to cancel up to 723,946,200 additional shares held by the company adjust the capital structure without bringing in new capital. Future company disclosures may clarify how quickly the Board uses the additional cancellation authority.
