Renault Group is widening its employee share ownership plan as it continues its Renaulution strategy. The action not only rewards the employees but also enhances their position as an integral contributor to the growth and performance of the company. The action aims to develop a more participative business culture and promote employees' engagement in Renault's future.

Key Points

1. Broad Accessibility and Participation

Almost 100,000 eligible workers in 30 countries will be granted three free Renault S.A. shares per worker, with no investment involved.

The scheme is available to staff in a large geographic territory, with a focus on inclusiveness and widespread participation.

2. Competitive Financial Terms

Between May 12 and May 30, 2025, Renault employees in 24 countries can buy Renault shares at a preferential rate of €31.34, which is 30% cheaper than the reference price of €44.76.

For the initial share bought, Renault will provide three free bonus shares, totaling seven shares for a €31.34 investment-a gross benefit of €281.98 from the reference price.

3. Extra Company Contribution

The employer contribution further amplifies the value proposition: six shares from Renault (three free, three bonus) for every first share purchased, maximizing benefit for minimal investment.

4. Investment Limit and Conformity

Workers' investment in the program has a maximum limit of 25% of their projected gross 2025 salary to make their participation accountable and conforming.

5. Impact on Strategy and Culture

Through December 31, 2024, Renault workers already owned 5.63% of the group's share capital, which accentuated the increased stake of worker-shareholders.

The program aligns with Renault's vision to develop an inclusive, participative company model that acknowledges staff as key drivers of long-term success.

Conclusion

Renault Group's new share ownership initiative reflects a strong belief in employee empowerment and sharing of value, providing high levels of financial incentives and underpinning a culture of shared achievement.
