BBVA to hold its Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting this Friday
Tomorrow, Friday, July 5th at 10:00 AM Central European Summer Time (CEST), BBVA will hold the 2024 Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting at the Euskalduna Conference Center in Bilbao. The bank has proposed to its shareholders the capital increase needed to carry out the share exchange with Banco Sabadell. This capital increase will entail the issuance of new BBVA shares, which will be given to the Banco Sabadell shareholders who accept the offer. No payments will be made by BBVA shareholders.
You can watch the extraordinary shareholders’ meeting live here.
This capital increase is a necessary step in the bid submitted to Banco Sabadell's shareholders targeting 100 percent of their shares, which BBVA announced on May 9. The deal aims to merge both entities to build a stronger and more profitable bank, capable of competing in an increasingly global sector and with growing needs for investment in technology and data.
The final amount of the capital increase will depend on the number of Banco Sabadell shareholders who take up the offer, and it will not require BBVA shareholders to make any payment. Therefore, if the proposal is approved, progress will be made in the offer to Banco Sabadell shareholders to purchase 100 percent of the bank’s shares.
