VusionGroup has announced that Walmart sold 650,000 VusionGroup shares on Monday through an accelerated private placement, as part of the US company's strategy to monetize its investment in the French company over time.
The shares sold result from the exercise of 650,000 BSA warrants subscribed by Walmart in June 2023 concurrently with the conclusion of the commercial agreement entered into in 2023, which was then extended at the end of 2024 to all Walmart stores in the United States.
The world's leading retailer retains 1,111,200 BSA shares that may, subject to certain conditions, give access to a total of approximately 6.5% of the share capital of the digital commerce solutions group.
Following this transaction, VusionGroup's share capital will consist of 16,721,708 ordinary shares, and the free float will increase by two percentage points. This transaction will increase its cash position by €72.8m.
