Arverne’s Founder and CEO Plans to Increase His Stake Then Partner With INFRAGREEN V to Support a €70 Million ORANE Issuance Project

Regulatory News:

Arverne (FR001400JWR8 - ARVEN), the leading French supplier of geothermal solutions, announces that it has been informed of a plan by Pierre Brossollet, founder and CEO of Arverne, to strengthen his position as the Company’s principal shareholder through a partnership with INFRAGREEN V, a fund managed by RGREEN INVEST, a French asset management company specializing in strategic infrastructure supporting Europe’s energy sovereignty and competitiveness.

Against a backdrop that is particularly supportive of geothermal energy in France and Europe—where energy sovereignty, decarbonization and industrial competitiveness have become strategic priorities—Arverne occupies a unique position across the entire value chain. This partnership project between the founder and RGREEN INVEST would enable Arverne to reach a new milestone in its growth trajectory and accelerate the deployment of geothermal energy in France.

The transaction would follow the acquisition of minority stakes held by long-standing shareholders, consistent with their original investment rationale. In addition to realizing a significant capital gain, these shareholders will enable the founder to strengthen his position as reference shareholder while preserving substantial upside potential in light of Arverne’s growth prospects.
