The capital increase is conducted in accordance with Article L. 411-2 1° of the French Monetary and Financial Code, based on the delegated authority granted by shareholders at the February 21, 2025 meeting (3rd resolution).

Due to recent share price volatility, the set price represents a 16. 99% discount relative to the closing price on May 9, 2025. The settlement and delivery of the new shares and their admission to trading on Euronext Growth Paris are anticipated upon final completion of the capital increase.
