Annual General Meetings

A KEY MOMENT OF DIALOGUE AND DECISION

The Annual General Meeting is a cornerstone of our corporate governance and a key moment for dialogue between our shareholders and the leadership team. A crucial opportunity to review our performance, understand our strategy, and exercise our shareholders' voting rights on the resolutions that shape Accor's future.

Under French law, Shareholders’ Meetings can be either:

Save the date

Ordinary Meetings

Held within six months of Accor's fiscal year-end (Dec 31), these annual meetings allow management to review yearly performance while shareholders approve financial statements, determine the dividend, and vote on directors and auditors.

Extraordinary Meetings

It refers to Special Meetings in the U.S. and the U.K., which can be called at any time for shareholders to vote on matters such as amending Accor's bylaws or approving new share issuances.

Combined Meetings

Held on the same day, this format usually coincides with the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. This is a common format used by Accor.

Shareholder's Voting Rights

Shareholders are eligible to vote at the Shareholders’ Meeting provided that their shares have been recorded in their name in the Company’s share register or in a securities account kept by an accredited bank or broker no later than the second business day preceding the date of the Meeting, which is the record date. The date of the Shareholders' Meeting is announced several weeks in advance via financial notices published in the French business press, the Shareholders' Calendar on this website and the Bulletin des Annonces Légales Obligatoires (BALO).

If your Accor shares are registered, proxy documents will be sent to you at least two weeks prior to the meeting. These include all necessary materials for making an informed voting decision, such as an overview of the Company’s business and financial status, summary financial statements, and proposed resolutions.

Additionally, they contain a meeting attendance card request form, a proxy form, a postal voting form, and a request form for documents like the full financial statements and auditors' reports.

If your shares are in bearer form, you should be able to obtain these documents from your bank or broker. You may also request them by email. You may choose 1) to attend the Meeting by requesting an attendance card, 2) to vote by mail, or 3) to give proxy to the Chairman of the Shareholders’ meeting or to your spouse or to a designated Accor shareholder. In each case, you simply fill out the appropriate form with your name and address and then date and sign it. Registered shareholders should send the form to Société Générale (Service Assemblées Générales – 32, rue du Champ de Tir – CS 30812 – 44308 Nantes cedex 3 – France). Bearer shareholders should send the form to their banker of broker, which will transfer the vote form to Société Générale with the certificate of ownership indicating that the shares have been recorded in your account at the appropriate date (see above). 

If you do not receive your attendance card in time, you may still come to the Meeting. Assuming you have your certificate of ownership (if your shares are in bearer form), you will be issued an attendance card at the registration desk. This is not the usual procedure, however, and we request that you avoid it if at all possible. 

Shareholders’ Meetings may exercise the powers vested in them by law only if the relevant quorum is fulfilled. In the case of Ordinary Meetings, 20% of shares carrying voting rights must be represented at Meetings held on first call, while there are no quorum requirements for Meetings held on second call. In the case of Extraordinary Meetings, the quorum is 25% for Meetings held on first call and 20% for Meetings held on second call. In the past, Accor Shareholders’ Meetings were automatically held on second call, but now shareholders are invited to attend on the first date set for the Meeting. Resolutions tabled at Ordinary Meetings must be approved by a majority of votes cast in person or by proxy (i.e. 50% plus one). Resolutions tabled at Extraordinary Meetings must be approved by two-thirds of the votes cast in person or by proxy.  

To facilitate voting and to process and display voting results more quickly, Accor uses an electronic voting system managed by Société Générale. As they enter the Meeting, shareholders are provided with an easy-to-use handheld device enabling them to vote on the resolutions. Final results are processed immediately and displayed just a few seconds after each vote.
