Stellantis Implements First Employee Share Purchase Plan

Stellantis* (NYSE: STLA) said in Amsterdam today that it has successfully started its first employee share purchase plan. In November, Stellantis launched ‘Shares to Win,’ an incentive program that enables employees to become shareholders with preferential terms. The employee share purchase plan launched less than three years after the creation of Stellantis to more than 85,000 employees in France and Italy. Employees received a 20% discount on the share price and a matching contribution of 100% of the personal amount invested up to €1000.

“The success of this step of Shares to Win in Italy and France demonstrates our employees’ confidence in the sustainable future of our Company supported by the execution of our Dare Forward 2030 strategic plan, which maps out the path to achieving carbon net zero by 2038 and creating value for all our stakeholders,” claimed Xavier Chéreau, Chief HR & Transformation Officer.

A total of 22% of eligible employees subscribed to Shares to Win this year, with an individual investment of ~€2470.

• In France, 31% of eligible Stellantis employees subscribed to Shares to Win.
• In Italy, the rate was 13%, a remarkable result given that this was the very first employee share purchase offered to ex-FCA employees in the country.

The preferential terms include:

• No minimum subscription in France and from one share subscribed in Italy
• Accessible to the greatest number of employees – A 20% discount on the reference share price

On 10 November, the subscription price for Shares to Win 2023 was set at €14.52 in France and Italy. The reference share price is equal to the average closing price of Stellantis shares on the Milano stock exchange between October 12 and November 8, 2023. Stellantis makes a  contribution of 100% of the employee’s personal contribution, up to €1000 gross. This is equivalent to 62 to 68 shares offered by Stellantis for €1000 invested by the employee, depending on the legislation in place in the country.

“This employee share purchase plan should be extended worldwide, starting in the first half of 2024 to 242,000 eligible employees in 18 countries, according to equivalent incentive guiding principles. Then, in 2025 it would be further expanded to all countries where Stellantis operates, as soon as the regulatory and economic context allows,” Stellantis said.
