Obligations related to warrants

The exercise of warrants, which can occur at any time from September 24, 2013 to September 24, 2022, will lead to an increase in the Publicis Groupe’s capital stock. The conversion ratio was adjusted again during the financial year by a factor of 1,116 to reflect the distributions drawn from the Company’s reserves and premiums. Following the cancellation of the warrants acquired in previous years or exercised since September 24, 2013, Publicis Groupe was, as of December 31, 2021, committed to issuing (in the event that the 529,895 outstanding stock warrants are exercised) 591,363 shares with a euro 0.40 par value and a euro 30.10 premium.

Other commitments

As of December 31, 2021, there were no significant commitments such as pledges, guarantees or collateral, or any other significant off-balance sheet commitments, in accordance with currently applicable accounting standards.
