Vivendi Will Lodge an Appeal Before the Court of Justice Of the European Union

Regulatory News:

On June 3, 2026, the General Court of the European Union found that the illegality of a request for information from the European Commission had not been established and consequently dismissed Vivendi’s (Paris:VIV) action.

This ruling does not impose any sanctions on Vivendi and does not prejudge the outcome of the proceedings on the merits initiated in 2023 by the European Commission concerning the acquisition of control of the Lagardère Group.

Vivendi will lodge an appeal against this ruling before the Court of Justice of the European Union. In this respect, Vivendi recalls that on April 11, 2024, the Court of Justice had ruled in its favor against both the General Court of the European Union and the European Commission.

In any event, Vivendi intends to assert its rights and take all necessary steps to ensure that it is definitively cleared of any wrongdoing in the proceedings initiated by the European Commission.
