Essilor (Euronext Paris: EI) and Luxottica (MTA: LUX), announce the extension to July 31, 2018 of the deadline of both the Combination Agreement1and Contribution Agreement2 signed between Essilor and Delfin, Luxottica’s majority shareholder.
As of today, the Chinese competition authority has not yet approved the contemplated combination between Essilor and Luxottica, such approval being a condition precedent to the closing of the combination. The parties remain confident that they will succeed in completing the antitrust processes in China and Turkey in the coming weeks.
The first General Meeting of EssilorLuxottica shareholders which was scheduled for July 25, 2018 will be reconvened by the EssilorLuxottica’s Board of Directors for a later date to be announced as soon as possible.
