The offering, part of the company’s employee shareholding policy, saw participation from 62,796 employees across 97 countries, representing 53% of the eligible workforce.
The subscription period, which ran from May 2 to May 15, 2025, allowed employees and former employees who are members of the PEG-A Group savings plan to purchase shares at a price of 42.50 euros, reflecting a 20% discount on the average closing price on Euronext (EPA:ENX) prior to the setting of this price.
This year’s subscription amount of 449.3 million euros closely approaches the record-setting 480 million euros raised in 2024 and marks a significant increase over the amounts from 2021 to 2023. The number of subscribers has grown by 10,000 since 2024, a year when each employee received 100 shares to commemorate the company’s centenary.
Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and CEO of TotalEnergies, highlighted the importance of employee share ownership in fostering a sense of belonging and aligning interests between employees and shareholders. He noted the consistent growth in participation and investment as an indicator of employees’ strong confidence in the company and its strategy.
With the new shares issued, employee shareholders now hold an estimated 8.8% of TotalEnergies’ share capital as of June 10, 2025. These shares carry immediate dividend rights and are fully assimilated with existing shares on Euronext.
TotalEnergies, a global energy company, is committed to delivering reliable, affordable, and sustainable energy to a broad international market, emphasizing sustainability in its strategy and operations.
