PARIS - Societe Generale (OTC:SCGLY) has announced that it did not engage in market stabilization activities for the recent LVMH (EPA:LVMH) Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton S.E. bond offering. The securities in question, totaling EUR 1.9 billion, comprised two sets of bonds with different maturities and fixed coupon rates.
The first set, amounting to EUR 1.1 billion, carries a 2.625% coupon and is due on March 7, 2029. The second set, valued at EUR 800 million, has a 3.000% coupon and matures on March 7, 2032. These bonds were offered at prices of 99.868 and 99.423, respectively.
Societe Generale, acting as the Stabilisation Manager, had expected the stabilization period to start on April 28, 2025, and to conclude by June 6, 2025. However, it was confirmed that no stabilization measures were undertaken within the meaning of Article 3.2(d) of the Market Abuse Regulation.
Stabilization activities are typically conducted to support the market price of securities immediately after their issuance. The absence of such measures could indicate that the securities found a stable market without the need for intervention.
The announcement made clear that the bonds have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, and as such, may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration. It was also stated that there has not been and will not be a public offer of the securities in the United States.
