• Large Secondary Offering by Selling Shareholders

  Up to 121,604,413 ordinary shares, representing 19.86% of outstanding shares, are being offered by selling security holders. This is a substantial volume of stock being made available for sale.

• No Proceeds to Company

  The company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares, as they are being sold by existing shareholders (Unilever subsidiaries).

• Share Repurchase Authorization

  Shareholders authorized the Board to make one or more repurchases of shares, which could help offset some of the dilution from the secondary offering.

• Future Share Issuance Authorization

  The Board was authorized to issue new shares and restrict pre-emption rights, providing flexibility for future capital raises but also potential for further dilution.

This filing confirms the active status of a substantial secondary offering by selling shareholders, making nearly 20% of outstanding shares available for sale. This could create significant downward pressure on the stock as the company receives no proceeds. However, shareholders also approved a share repurchase program, which could help offset some of this dilution. The AGM also authorized the Board to issue new shares and approved a "Foundation Plan for Growth" despite some dissent.
