To justify such a situation, it was envisaged that the BSPCEs would be allocated without dividend rights and\/or without voting rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alterm\u00e8s was commissioned by the shareholders to assist them in valuing the shares subscribed in exercise of BSPCEs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc46 To find out how BPSCE works, click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.altermes.fr\/en\/accounting-expertise\/bspce-bsa-aga-stock-options-how-to-involve-employees-in-the-companys-development\/\">here!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Special case: valuation of non-voting and\/or non-dividend-paying shares  <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Within a joint-stock company, it is possible to allocate preference shares enabling shareholders to benefit from rights and prerogatives specific to an ordinary share:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Political rights: shares with double or multiple voting rights, which give the shareholders concerned a greater say at general meetings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Financial rights: preferred shares entitle shareholders to a higher dividend than other shareholders.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>It is also possible to issue shares with no dividend rights for a period to be determined, or with no voting rights (article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.legifrance.gouv.fr\/affichCodeArticle.do?cidTexte=LEGITEXT000005634379&amp;idArticle=LEGIARTI000006227613&amp;dateTexte=&amp;categorieLien=cid\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">L228-11 of the French Commercial Code<\/a>).  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the first case, the shareholder does not receive a dividend for the defined period. In the second case, the shareholder does not vote at General Meetings. It therefore has no say in decision-making.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our value proposition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We worked on an evaluation report in 2 phases:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Phase 1 &#8211; Company valuation (basis for BSPCE calculation)<\/strong> <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Market research<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Financial statement analysis<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Business plan analysis<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Valuation methods :\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Transaction multiple ;  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stock market multiple ;  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Discounted Cashflow (DCF) ;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Net asset value.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>2. <strong>Phase 2 &#8211; Valuation of BSPCE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Valuation of shares without dividend rights (temporary or permanent) based on DCF ;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Valuation of non-voting shares: although this approach is possible and has been observed on the market, it appears to be more subjective;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Valuation of action integrating a mix of solutions envisaged in the first 2 points.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Results of our work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our work enabled us to assess the possible discount in return for the elimination of dividend rights.
