Take part in Legrand’s first international employee share plan and have a say in the future of the Group 

The Legrand Group’s international employee share plan gives you, as an employee, the opportunity to further increase your involvement in the future of the Group by investing in Legrand shares on preferential terms.

What are the benefits of the plan?

  • You benefit from a 20% discount on the reference price of the share, 
  • Legrand matches 100% of your personal contribution, up to a maximum of €600, i.e. a maximum matching contribution of €600.

Let’s illustrate these benefits with an example

If the reference price is €88, the subscription price, including the 20% discount, is €70.40.

If you invest €600, Legrand tops up your investment with a €600 matching contribution. 

Your investment (personal contribution + matching contribution) in the employee share plan will therefore be €1,200. 

You will therefore hold 17.0455 units in the “Actions Legrand” Fonds Commun de Placement d’Entreprise. [on screen => €1,200 ÷ €70.40 = 17.0455 shares]

In short: by combining the effect of the discount with that of the matching contribution, your investment in the FCPE will represent, at the value of the reference price, an amount equivalent to €1,500, for an initial investment of €600. [on screen => 17.0455 shares x €88 = €1,500]

[on screen at the bottom => To find out more about the taxation applicable to the plan, please refer to the local supplement for your country, available at https://employeeshareplan.legrandgroup.com.]

But that’s not all...

The Legrand Group will also cover the account maintenance and management fees. 

Like any shareholder, you will benefit from any dividends, which will be automatically reinvested in Legrand shares in the FCPE. 

Please note before you invest

Your investment mirrors the Legrand share price, which may increase or decline. 

Your investment carries a foreign exchange risk. As the Legrand share is listed in Euros on the Paris Stock Exchange, the value of your investment during the term thereof will vary based on fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Euro and your currency.

While your investment is not protected, the aforementioned benefits allow you to limit the risk of loss if the Legrand share price falls, and increase your profit if it rises.

Your investment in the plan will be blocked in for 5 years, but there are cases of early release listed in the local supplement specific to your country.

If you have any questions, you can find your local representative in the “Contact” section at https://employeeshareplan.legrandgroup.com.
