AXA announces the results of its Shareholders’ Meeting

Following its Annual Shareholders’ Meeting held today in Paris, AXA announces that all resolutions submitted to shareholders were approved with the meeting quorum representing 71.23% of AXA shares.

The Shareholders’ Meeting notably approved the consolidated and parent company financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the payment of a dividend of €2.32 per share (with a payment date on May 13, 2026, and an ex-dividend date on May 11, 2026).

The Shareholders’ Meeting overwhelmingly voted in favor of the renewal of the mandate of Thomas Buberl for a four-year term, following which the Board of Directors reappointed him as Chief Executive Officer until the end of his mandate.

“On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am delighted with the strong support of our shareholders regarding the proposal to renew Thomas Buberl’s mandate. This renewal will allow the Group to continue with its growth strategy and keep improving its performance” said Antoine Gosset-Grainville, Chairman of the Board of Directors of AXA.

“I would like to thank the shareholders and the members of our Board of Directors once again for their continued support and trust. Following another year of very strong performance, AXA remains particularly well-positioned to generate sustainable, long-term value for its shareholders. As I take up my new mandate, I’m focused on delivering our current plan, energized by the profitable growth opportunities in front of us, and confident the Group is well positioned for sustainable success going forward” said Thomas Buberl, Chief Executive Officer of AXA.

The Shareholders’ Meeting also renewed the mandates, as directors, of (i) Ewout Steenbergen for a four-year term, (ii) Rachel Picard for a three-year term and (iii) Gérald Harlin for a two-year term, and appointed Philomena Colatrella as a director for a three-year term.

“I would also like to welcome to our Board Philomena Colatrella. I am pleased that our Board can benefit from her extensive experience as former CEO of an insurance group” added Antoine Gosset-Grainville.

Accordingly, at the close of today’s Shareholders’ Meeting, the Board is composed of 14 members, including 8 women and 6 men, 9 of whom are considered independent under the criteria of the Afep-Medef Code. The composition of the Board Committees is as follows:
