法國經濟部長宣布國家6月8日將100%控股電力公司EDF集團 Sameer al Doumy
法國部長宣布國家6月8日將100%控股電力公司EDF。法國電力公司EDF的重新國有化作業即將完成。 “6 月 8 日,國家將對 EDF 擁有 100% 的控製權”,這是經濟部長布魯諾·勒梅爾 (Bruno Le Maire)周二,在接受 RTL 電台的采訪時宣布的。
結束一項要延遲數月才能完成的行動,也就是解除該集團的反對國營的小股東們提出的上訴時間;這些小股東擁有的股權總計達 97 億歐元。
經濟部長說,迄今為止,國家持有 97.69% 的資本和至少 98.04% 的投票權,並於23日周二向金融市場管理局發送了“實施強製退出的請求”。 XXX 因此,那些仍由私人股東持有的 2% 的股份必須轉讓給國家,這是 EDF 從巴黎股票市場上消失之前的最後一階段手續的操作。 最終,法國電力公司集團在巴黎證券交易所度過不到 18 年的時間。
EDF 的重新國有化不僅旨在使其能夠“在盡可能最好的條件下執行六個新核反應堆的建設計劃”,而且“對 EDF 提出明確的要求”,也就是無論是在核電生產方麵“返回盡快達到 350 太瓦時”(去年為 279 太瓦時),同時能獲得“盡可能低的電價”,這點是“我們公司競爭力的關鍵”。
經濟部長的信息很明確,國家打算利用其作為能源公司唯一股東的地位強加其觀點。 這種姿態很可能會違背新任集團首席執行官 Luc Rémont 的意願,他認為 EDF 是一家與其他公司一樣的公司,對市場規律做出反應。 風險很高,因為與受監管的曆史核電 (Arenh) 相關的關稅即將結束,歐洲正在討論其電力市場的未來。
State takeover of EDF resumes after appeal dismissed

The French State has requested the country's Financial Markets Authority (AMF) reopens the simplified public tender offer for the outstanding shares of EDF after the Paris Court of Appeal dismissed a claim lodged by minority shareholders in EDF challenging the deal.
EDF's board of directors on 27 October last year approved an offer by the French state to renationalise the company by increasing its shareholding in EDF from 84% to 100% in a deal worth almost EUR10 billion (USD11 billion).
The following month, the AMF approved the simplified public tender offer filed by the French state for the equity securities of EDF, with an offer price of EUR12.00 per EDF share and EUR15.52 per OCEANE (existing shares not already held by the French state). The offer was open from 24 November to 22 December inclusive.
A group of minority shareholders took the case to the Paris Court of Appeal arguing that the price offered to EDF shareholders was too low. The employee shareholding fund Actions EDF and the non-profit organisations Energie En Actions and Association pour la Défense des Actionnaires Minoritaires are seeking the annulment of the clearance decision on the offer.
The AMF announced in late-January that the simplified public tender offer will be closed on 3 February, pending the decision of the Paris Court of Appeal.
The Court has now dismissed the claim, confirming the validity of the offer with regard to the applicable legislative and regulatory provisions.
The AMF said that, in accordance with the French State's undertakings, the offer will be "reopened for a period of 10 trading days from 4 May 2023 to 17 May 2023 included".
"Following this period, the French State will request the implementation of a squeeze-out procedure for EDF shares and OCEANEs, since the legal and regulatory conditions for such implementation will be met," EDF said.
