Who are the largest shareholders?

Stellantis has two types of shares: common shares that are available to the public through stock exchanges and special voting shares. It's a common setup when companies seek capital but founders or key investors aim to retain control.

Ordinary shares (STLA)

These shares are publicly traded on several stock exchanges, including the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker STLA, along with Euronext Paris and Borsa Italiana in Milan. Each ordinary share carries voting rights, allowing the shareholder to vote at the company's general meetings and receive dividends distributed by Stellantis. These shares are accessible to retail and institutional investors.

Special voting shares

Special voting shares aren't publicly traded and are held by certain long-term shareholders to provide additional voting power. Key holders of Stellantis' special voting shares, including Peugeot 1810 and Exor N.V, are part of a loyalty voting structure designed to reward long-term shareholders with additional voting rights, enhancing their influence on company decisions.
