Corporate governance

Major holdings

Shareholders who cross, either up- or downwards, the threshold of three (3) percent of the company’s share capital on a fully diluted basis must disclose their holdings. A subsequent disclosure is required for each crossing, either up- or downwards, of the threshold of five (5) percent and each multiple of five (5) percent of the company’s share capital. 

The above overview is based on the disclosures and notifications received by the company and may not reflect the actual shareholdings of the owners listed.

Dematerialization of shares

• If you want to dematerialize your shares and transfer them from your securities account to Barco’s nominative shareholders register, you need to contact the bank holding your securities account. Your bank must send the duly completed and signed instruction form made available by the Central Securities Depositary Euroclear (“Change of form demat into registered”) to Barco, whereupon Barco will also sign this form and forward it to Euroclear. Euroclear will process the instruction so that your securities account with your bank will be debited with the number of shares you want to transfer to Barco’s nominative shareholders register and Barco’s account of registered shares will be credited with the same number. Please note that the bank may charge certain administrative costs to complete this procedure.
  
  
• You must provide us with your contact details (domicile + email address) as well as bank account details for the dividend payments.
  
  
• Upon the completion of this process, Barco will send you by registered mail a duly signed share certificate, certifying that the transferred shares have been duly recorded in its nominative shareholders register.
  
  
• As a nominative shareholder, you will be invited via email to our annual shareholders meeting and will receive any approved dividends directly on your account wired by Barco after deduction of any applicable taxes or duties.
