On April 4, 2024, Valeo announced the placement of 850 million euros worth of new green bonds maturing April 11, 2030.
This issue raised 850 million euros in bonds maturing in 6 years with a coupon of 4,50%. BNP Paribas, Crédit Agricole CIB, Citibank, Mizuho and Natixis acted as Joint Active Bookrunners. The net proceeds of the transaction will be used for financing projects and investments linked to the portfolio of technologies that contribute to low-carbon mobility, in particular vehicle electrification.
Valeo, a global automotive technology leader, celebrated a major milestone with the official grand opening of its new manufacturing facility in Daegu (Korea) for the production of sensors for vehicle automation.
At its meeting held on July 26, 2022, and on the recommendation of the Governance, Appointments and Corporate Social Responsibility Committee, Valeo's Board of Directors unanimously decided to co-opt Alexandre Dayon as an independent director. Alexandre Dayon will replace C. Maury Devine, who resigned from her office effective that same day. He will serve out her remaining term of office, i.e. until the end of the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting convened to approve the financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2024.
