Vincent Bolloré has told Havas shareholders that he does not expect to win two seats on the Aegis board at their annual shareholder meeting on Wednesday.
Bolloré has a 29% stake in Aegis (see Bollore Increases Aegis Share Ownership)and a similar stake in Havas. The Aegis board have urged their shareholders to vote against Bolloré’s candidates, Philippe Germond and Roger Hatchuel, on June 14 (see Aegis Board Urge Shareholders To Block Nominations) because of what they see as a conflict of interest.
