Criteo Receives Shareholder Approval for Redomiciliation from France to Luxembourg

NEW YORK, Feb. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Criteo S.A. (NASDAQ: CRTO) ("Criteo" or the "Company"), the global platform connecting the commerce ecosystem, announced today that its shareholders have approved all the proposals with overwhelming support at its general meeting of shareholders on February 27, 2026. As previously announced, Criteo expects to complete the pending transfer of the Company's legal domicile from France to Luxembourg via a cross-border conversion (the "Conversion") in the third quarter of 2026, subject to customary conditions.

"On behalf of the Board of Directors and management, we thank our shareholders for their strong support of Criteo's redomiciliation from France to Luxembourg. This vote represents an important milestone and sets Criteo on course to become a Luxembourg company in the third quarter of 2026, increasing our strategic flexibility and strengthening our ability to deliver sustainable long-term value for our shareholders," said Frederik Van der Kooi, Chairman of the Board of Directors.

Additional details regarding the voting results can be found in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed today with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which is available on the Company's investor website and at www.sec.gov.

Criteo's Board of Directors believes the Conversion and the replacement of its American Depositary Shares ("ADSs") structure with ordinary shares to be directly listed on Nasdaq will enhance shareholder value over the long-term by providing potential strategic opportunities and benefits, including:

• Positioning Criteo for potential inclusion in certain U.S. indices, subject to meeting other eligibility criteria, thereby expanding the Company's access to passive investment capital, triggering associated benchmarking from actively managed funds and broadening its shareholder base;
• Providing greater capital management flexibility by reducing or eliminating current restrictions related to share repurchases and holdings of treasury shares; and
• Eliminating fees and complexities associated with ADSs potentially increasing stock liquidity.
