North Atlantic France SAS annonce le montant de l’ajustement de la valeur du stock lié à son projet d’acquisition d’une participation majoritaire dans Esso Société Anonyme Française SA

Paris, FRANCE, 06 oct. 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

North Atlantic France SAS annonce le montant de l’ajustement de la valeur du stock lié à son projet d’acquisition d’une participation majoritaire dans Esso Société Anonyme Française SA

Paris, FRANCE, 6 octobre 2025 – North Atlantic France SAS (« North Atlantic ») a annoncé, le 28 mai 2025, être entrée en négociations exclusives avec ExxonMobil France Holding SAS (« ExxonMobil ») en vue de l’acquisition de l’intégralité des participations d’ExxonMobil dans Esso Société Anonyme Française SA (« Esso S.A.F. ») et dans ExxonMobil Chemical France SAS par la signature d’une promesse d’achat.

Le 24 septembre 2025, North Atlantic a annoncé la signature d’un contrat d’acquisition d’actions.

Comme indiqué dans ces communiqués de presse, le prix pour l’acquisition des participations détenues par ExxonMobil est soumis, entre autres, à un ajustement à la hausse ou à la baisse reflétant le changement dans la valeur en euros du stock d’Esso S.A.F. par rapport à sa valeur au 31 décembre 2024. En raison de l’appréciation de l’euro par rapport au dollar américain, et de la baisse des cours du Brent, la valeur en euros du stock d’Esso S.A.F a diminué. À la suite de la finalisation par Esso S.A.F. du transfert de propriété de ses stocks de pétrole brut et de certains produits pétroliers à un établissement bancaire, l’ajustement qui en résulte est un ajustement à la baisse du prix d’acquisition pour un montant cumulé de 141.555.511,67 €, correspondant à 11,01 € par action Esso S.A.F.1.

Par conséquent, sur la base de l’information disponible, le prix de 149,19 € par action serait réduit à 85,18 € avant le versement de toute distribution additionnelle et prenant en compte les ajustements suivants :

  • ajustement pour stock : ajustement à la baisse de 11,01 € par action ;
  • trésorerie distribuée par Esso S.A.F : ajustement à la baisse de 53,00 € par action correspondant au dividende versé par Esso S.A.F. le 10 juillet 2025.

En outre, en tenant compte de la distribution envisagée de 60,21 € par action qui sera versée le 14 novembre 2025 par Esso S.A.F., sous réserve de l’approbation de l’assemblée générale des actionnaires d’Esso S.A.F. convoquée pour le 4 novembre 2025, le prix par action serait en conséquence réduit à 24,97 €.

Ce prix de 24,97 € par action, après versement de la distribution du 14 novembre 2025 (sous réserve de l’approbation des actionnaires), reste soumis aux ajustements suivants :

  • un ajustement à la hausse par un mécanisme de ticking fee correspondant aux intérêts calculés (i) sur un premier montant de base de 362.000.000 € au taux d’intérêt à court terme européen plus 2 % par an entre le 2 mars 2025 (inclus) et la date de réalisation (exclue), et (ii) sur un second montant de base de 950.000.000 € au taux de 2,4 % par an entre le 2 mars 2025 (inclus) et la date de réalisation (exclue) ;
  • un ajustement à la hausse reflétant (i) la vente au groupe ExxonMobil de l’activité de commercialisation de lubrifiants et de produits spécialisés opérée par Esso S.A.F. pour un prix estimé de 8 millions d’euros (comme annoncé par Esso S.A.F. le 24 septembre 2025, incluant 3 millions d’euros pour stocks, à ajuster à la date de réalisation) et (ii) la vente au groupe ExxonMobil de certaines marques et autres droits de propriété intellectuelle d’Esso S.A.F. pour un montant de 20 millions d’euros (comme annoncé par Esso S.A.F. le 24 septembre 2025) ;
  • un ajustement à la baisse pour prendre en compte certains passifs sociaux comme précédemment annoncé le 24 septembre 2025 ; cet ajustement à la baisse, pour autant que les pertes portent sur des passifs sociaux postérieurs à la date de réalisation2, n’impactera pas le prix proposé aux actionnaires minoritaires de Esso S.A.F. dans le cadre de l’offre publique d’achat obligatoire sur les actions restantes.

Le prix final pour l’acquisition envisagée de la participation de 82,89 % détenue par ExxonMobil dans Esso S.A.F. reflétant les ajustements restants décrits ci–avant sera fixé définitivement avant la finalisation de l’acquisition du bloc (le “Bloc de Contrôle”) et sera communiqué au marché en temps utiles.

La finalisation de l’acquisition du Bloc de Contrôle reste soumise aux formalités et autorisations réglementaires relatives à ce type de transaction, notamment en matière d’investissements étrangers en France, ainsi qu’à la finalisation de certains accords de financement.

La finalisation de la transaction est prévue d’ici la fin de l’année 2025. North Atlantic rappelle s’être engagée à assurer une transition complète et bien gérée, avec l’intention de maintenir l’emploi, les rémunérations et avantages existants.

1 Note : Conformément au contrat d’acquisition d’actions, l’ajustement est égal à la différence en euros entre (i) le cours Platts du Dated Brent par baril de pétrole brut publié par S&P Global Platts le 31 décembre 2024, divisé par le taux de change EUR/USD à cette date (i.e., 74,645 $ par baril, divisé par 1,0389), et (ii) la moyenne arithmétique des prix de règlements quotidiens du cours Platts du Dated Brent par baril de pétrole brut publié par S&P Global Platts pour la période allant du 29 septembre 2025 au 3 octobre 2025, soit 67,341 $, divisé par le taux de change EUR/USD au 26 septembre 2025, soit 1,1672, appliqué à dix (10) million de barils de pétrole.
2 Note : Certains passifs antérieurs à la date de réalisation, dont le montant, le cas échéant, n’est pas encore connu, pourraient également être concernés par cet ajustement.

Over 185% Liquidity Improvements on BitMEX Derivatives Contracts Following Strategic AWS Tokyo Migration

VICTORIA, Seychelles, Sept. 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BitMEX, one of the world’s safest crypto exchanges, today announced the transformative impact of its successful trading engine migration to AWS Tokyo. The move has delivered liquidity improvements by more than 185% across nine perpetual contracts and markedly faster order execution times for traders globally.

The migration was executed by the BitMEX engineering team on 23 August 2025, which was completed within ten minutes. The exchange was brought back online in under an hour—a major technical milestone for the platform that ensured a smooth, disruption–free transition for users.

One month following the migration, the platform enhancements are clear:

  • Deeper Liquidity on Flagship Contracts: Liquidity within 5 basis points of the mid–price for XBTUSDT and ETHUSDT has deepened by 185% and 401% respectively. This directly benefits traders with tighter spreads and reduced slippage.
  • Measurable Improvements on Emerging Pairs: Newer contracts for HYPE, BCH, PEPE, and more, have also recorded liquidity improvements of more than 2000%, broadening the range of trading opportunities available on the platform. Known as the home of OG Bitcoin perpetual swap, BitMEX is now extending its credibility across a wider suite of perpetual contracts, proving itself as a serious venue for trading tokens beyond Bitcoin.
  • Faster, More Reliable Execution: End–to–end order placement latency and orderbook latency have improved to support active market–making participants to increase orderbook liquidity even more than before.

“The seamless execution of this migration is a technical milestone and a strategic leap forward in our commitment to delivering an institutional–grade trading experience, while also empowering retail users with better execution quality and innovative products,” said Stephan Lutz, CEO of BitMEX. The immediate improvements in latency and liquidity directly translate to a more competitive and robust trading environment for all users and our work isn’t done. We are already building on this success to deliver even greater performance in the months ahead.”

BitMEX’s AWS Tokyo migration is just the beginning of a broader roadmap to continually optimise platform performance. In the upcoming months, BitMEX expects further improvements in the platform’s liquidity and latency as it finetunes internal processes and rolls out additional infrastructure improvements.

Additional information about the platform upgrades can be found here.

North Atlantic France SAS reaches a key milestone in its project to acquire a majority stake in Esso Société Anonyme Française SA and 100% of ExxonMobil Chemical France SAS, with the signing of a share purchase agreement

ST. JOHN’S, NL, CANADA, Sept. 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

North Atlantic France SAS reaches a key milestone in its project to acquire a majority stake in Esso Société Anonyme Française SA and 100% of ExxonMobil Chemical France SAS, with the signing of a share purchase agreement

ST. JOHN’S, NL, CANADA, September 24, 2025 – North Atlantic France SAS (“North Atlantic”) announced on May 28, 2025, that it had entered into exclusive negotiations with ExxonMobil France Holding SAS (“ExxonMobil”) for the acquisition of ExxonMobil’s entire stake in Esso Société Anonyme Française SA (“Esso S.A.F.”) and ExxonMobil Chemical France SAS by signing a put option agreement. Following the information and consultation process of employees’ representative bodies, North Atlantic today announces that it has entered into an agreement with ExxonMobil to acquire ExxonMobil's entire stake in Esso S.A.F. (the “Controlling Block”) and EMCF.

This marks an important step in North Atlantic’s project to establish a long–term presence in France, contributing to European energy security, industrial resilience, and energy transition.

The completion of the project remains subject to customary regulatory conditions applicable to this type of operation, including foreign direct investment control in France, and finalization of certain financing arrangements.

Ted Lomond, President and CEO of North Atlantic, President of North Atlantic France stated: “Our commitment to France is long–term. By building on Gravenchon’s record of industrial excellence, we aim to strengthen energy security and resilience while accelerating the transition to lower–carbon solutions. This project reflects our ambition to grow North Atlantic into a premier transatlantic energy company, with strong foundations on both sides of the Atlantic.”

Simon Fenner, CEO of North Atlantic France stated: “With the signing of this agreement, North Atlantic reaffirms its ambition to consolidate the Gravenchon site and provide it with an ambitious development plan to serve the French energy and industrial sectors. We are firmly committed to completing the transaction by year–end.”

As a reminder, on May 28, 2025, North Atlantic had announced that following the acquisition of the Controlling Block in Esso S.A.F., it would file a mandatory tender offer for the remaining shares of Esso S.A.F. on the same financial terms as the acquisition of the Controlling Block.

Furthermore, it should be noted that the Board of Directors of Esso S.A.F. has convened a Shareholders Meeting on November 4, 2025 to deliberate on the proposal for a distribution of reserves, amounting to €60.21 per share, with payment scheduled for November 14, 2025.

During the discussions between ExxonMobil and North Atlantic over the past months, the two parties agreed to a downward adjustment of the purchase price for the Controlling Block, to reflect certain social liabilities. This downward adjustment will not affect the price offered to minority shareholders of Esso S.A.F. in the context of the mandatory tender offer for the remaining shares, which will be determined after taking into account the various adjustments described in the press release dated May 28, 2025, namely:

     (i)   a downward adjustment to reflect the amount of cash distributed by Esso S.A.F. prior to the date of completion of the acquisition of the Controlling Block (i.e., an amount of €113.21 per share, corresponding to a dividend of €53 per share payable on July 10, 2025, and an amount of €60.21 per share in respect of the distribution proposed by Esso S.A.F. and to be paid on November 14, 2025, subject to the approval of the Esso S.A.F. shareholders meeting);

     (ii)   upward adjustment by a ticking fee mechanism corresponding to accrued interest on (i) a first base amount of €362,000,000 at the euro short–term rate plus 2% per annum between March 2, 2025 and the closing date, and (ii) a second base amount of €950,000,000 at a rate of 2.4% per annum between March 2, 2025 and the closing date;

     (iii)   upward or downward adjustment to reflect the change in the euro value of Esso S.A.F.’s inventory and equal to the difference between the crude oil value of ten (10) million barrels as of December 31, 2024 and the crude oil value of the same number of barrels as of a period prior to closing that will depend on the date of the contemplated transfer of the ownership of ESAF inventory to a bank.

The final price for the acquisition of the Controlling Block will be definitively set prior to the completion of the transaction and will be communicated to the market in due course.

The completion of the transaction is still expected in Q4 2025. North Atlantic reiterates its commitment to delivering a comprehensive and well–managed transition, with the intention to maintain employment and existing compensation and benefits.

ST. JOHN’S, NL, CANADA, 24 sept. 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

North Atlantic France SAS franchit une étape clé dans son projet d’acquisition d’une participation majoritaire dans Esso Société Anonyme Française SA et 100% d’ExxonMobil Chemical France SAS, avec la signature d’un contrat d’acquisition d’actions

ST. JOHN’S, NL, CANADA, le 24 septembre 2025 – North Atlantic France SAS (« North Atlantic ») a annoncé, le 28 mai 2025, être entrée en négociations exclusives avec ExxonMobil France Holding SAS (« ExxonMobil ») en vue de la cession de l’intégralité des participations d’ExxonMobil dans Esso Société Anonyme Française SA (« Esso S.A.F. ») et dans ExxonMobil Chemical France SAS (« EMCF ») par la signature d’une promesse d’achat. A l’issue du processus d’information et de consultation des instances représentatives du personnel, North Atlantic annonce aujourd’hui avoir conclu, avec Exxon Mobil un contrat d’acquisition de l’intégralité de la participation d’ExxonMobil dans Esso S.A.F. (le « Bloc de Contrôle ») et EMCF.

Cette étape marque une avancée importante dans le projet de North Atlantic de bâtir une présence de long terme en France, au service de la sécurité énergétique, de la résilience industrielle et de la transition énergétique européennes.

Ce projet reste soumis aux formalités et autorisations réglementaires relatives à ce type de transaction, notamment en matière d’investissements étrangers en France, ainsi qu’à la finalisation de certains accords de financement.

Ted Lomond, Président Directeur Général de North Atlantic et Président de North Atlantic France a déclaré : « Notre engagement envers la France s'inscrit sur le long terme. En nous appuyant sur l’excellence industrielle du site de Gravenchon, nous entendons renforcer la sécurité énergétique et la résilience tout en accélérant la transition vers des solutions bas carbone. Ce projet reflète notre ambition de faire de North Atlantic un acteur énergétique transatlantique de premier plan, avec des bases solides des deux côtés de l'Atlantique. »

Simon Fenner, Directeur Général de North Atlantic France a déclaré : « Avec la signature de cet accord, North Atlantic réaffirme son ambition de consolider le site de Gravenchon et de lui offrir un projet de développement ambitieux au service du secteur de l'énergie et de l’industrie française. Nous nous engageons avec détermination dans la finalisation de la transaction d’ici la fin de l’année. »

Pour rappel, le 28 mai 2025 North Atlantic avait annoncé qu’à l’issue de l’acquisition du Bloc de Contrôle, North Atlantic déposerait une offre publique d’achat obligatoire pour les actions restantes d’Esso S.A.F. aux mêmes conditions financières que l’acquisition du Bloc de Contrôle.

Par ailleurs, il est rappelé que le Conseil d’administration d’Esso S.A.F. a convoqué une Assemblée Générale des actionnaires le 4 novembre 2025 en vue de délibérer sur une proposition de distribution de réserves, pour un montant de 60,21 € par action dont la mise en paiement devrait intervenir le 14 novembre 2025.

Dans le cadre des discussions qui ont eu lieu ces derniers mois entre ExxonMobil et North Atlantic, les deux parties sont convenues d’intégrer un ajustement à la baisse du prix d’acquisition du Bloc de Contrôle afin de tenir compte de certains passifs sociaux. Cet ajustement à la baisse ne s’imputera pas sur le prix qui sera proposé aux actionnaires minoritaires d’Esso S.A.F. dans le cadre de l’offre publique d’achat obligatoire sur les actions restantes, lequel sera déterminé après prise en compte des différents différents ajustements décrits dans le communiqué du 28 mai 2025, à savoir :

     (i)    un ajustement à la baisse pour refléter le montant de trésorerie distribué par Esso S.A.F. avant la date de réalisation de l’acquisition de bloc (soit un montant de 113,21 € par action, correspondant à un dividende de 53 euros par actions mis en paiement le 10 juillet 2025 et un montant de 60,21 € par action au titre de la distribution proposée par Esso S.A.F et devant être mise en paiement le 14 novembre 2025, sous réserve de l’approbation de l’assemblée générale des actionnaires d’Esso S.A.F.) ;

     (ii)   un ajustement à la hausse par un mécanisme de ticking fee correspondant aux intérêts calculés (x) sur un premier montant de base de 362.000.000 € au taux d’intérêt à court terme européen (€STR) plus 2% par an entre le 2 mars 2025 et la date de réalisation, et (y) sur un second montant de base de 950.0000.000 € au taux de 2,4% par an entre le 2 mars 2025 et la date de réalisation ;

     (iii)   un ajustement à la hausse ou à la baisse pour refléter un changement dans la valeur en euros du stock d’Esso S.A.F. et égal à la différence entre la valeur du pétrole brut de dix (10) millions de barils au 31 décembre 2024 et la valeur de ce même volume sur une période préalable à la réalisation de l’opération qui dépendra de la date du transfert envisagé de propriété de l’inventaire d’Esso S.A.F. à un établissement bancaire.

Le prix final pour l’acquisition du Bloc de Contrôle sera fixé définitivement avant la réalisation de l’opération et sera communiqué au marché en temps utiles

La finalisation de cette transaction reste prévue pour le dernier trimestre 2025. North Atlantic rappelle s’être engagée à assurer une transition complète et bien gérée, avec l’intention de maintenir l’emploi et les rémunérations et avantages existants.

In a first for many platforms, BitMEX is also introducing Reverse Copy Trading, a groundbreaking feature that allows users to strategically take the opposite position of a chosen leader. This dual functionality provides traders with unprecedented flexibility to align with or hedge against market trends based on their own outlook.

The new feature addresses a common challenge for many traders: the lack of time or expertise to actively monitor the fast–paced derivatives market. By enabling users to automatically follow the moves of experienced traders – or take the opposite approach through Reverse Copy Trading – BitMEX is making sophisticated trading accessible to a wider audience, from beginners to those with limited time.

“Since 2014, BitMEX has been home to some of the oldest and most proficient traders in the crypto space. With Copy Trading, we are democratising access to their expertise, allowing our users to mirror their success,” said Stephan Lutz, CEO of BitMEX. “This feature simplifies the trading process, removes the burden of constant market monitoring, and provides a unique opportunity for our community to engage with the crypto derivatives market more effectively.”

How Copy Trading on BitMEX Works:
BitMEX's Copy Trading feature allows users to become “Copiers” and automatically replicate the trades of chosen “Copy Leaders.”

  • Becoming a Copier: Users can browse and filter top traders, known as Copy Leaders, on the Copy Trading Marketplace. Once a leader is selected, users can allocate a specific amount of capital, and the system will automatically mirror their trades.
  • Reverse Copy Trading: Users can choose to take the opposite position of a selected Copy Leader, a feature designed for strategic hedging or for those with a contrarian market view.
  • Full Control: Users retain complete control over their risk, with the ability to set personal risk parameters, including Stop Loss and Take Profit levels.
  • Amplified Earnings for Copy Leaders: Experienced traders can apply to become a Copy Leader and earn up to a 50% profit share from their Copiers, providing an additional revenue stream and building their reputation within the community.

Key Benefits of Copy Trading on BitMEX:

  • Access Top Traders: BitMEX is home to the best traders since 2014. Mirror the strategies of the industry's most profitable and experienced traders.
  • Diversify Your Strategy: Copy up to five Copy Leaders simultaneously, building a robust and diversified trading arsenal.
  • Automate Your Trades: An ideal solution for busy individuals or those new to the market, automating the crypto derivatives trading process.
  • Fully Customisable: Maintain full control over your trading capital and personal risk parameters for each copy trade.

Linyi products cultivate foundations for China-Africa trade hub in Angola

LINYI, China, July 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — From July 4 to 6, the Linyi Trade City (Angola) High–Quality Products Fair 2025 took center stage at the Angola International Real Estate Trade Fair (FINI 2025).

This marked another large–scale appearance of Linyi, a renowned Chinese manufacturing hub, in Africa. The fair attracted over 400 domestic and international companies, creating a comprehensive ecosystem of industries along various supply chains. Over 200 Linyi enterprises showcased more than 1,000 high–quality products, including building materials and hardware, highlighting the city's manufacturing prowess.

Delegations from Angola, Portugal, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Zambia, and other countries visited the event. This high level of participation underscores the growing demand for Linyi's products in Africa.

Linyi's participation was a significant milestone for the city's export sector. The enterprises not only exhibited their products but also set up overseas warehouses in Angola to make it easier for African customers to purchase goods. This move is expected to streamline supply chains and reduce procurement costs for local buyers.

Three key strategic outcomes emerged from the fair. First, it addressed the pain points of cross–border procurement and reshaped the African procurement model. Second, it enabled Angolan buyers to connect directly with the overseas warehouse system, eliminating the need for transnational travel. Third, it ensured source price transparency, synchronizing the quality and pricing of Linyi's products with clear price differences.

Chinese Ambassador to Angola Zhang Bin emphasized that China is Angola's steadfast economic partner. He highlighted the importance of the fair in deepening Sino–Angolan economic and trade cooperation.

“In the future, the Chinese side will continue to support Angola's economic diversification and industrialization and work to build a more resilient bilateral cooperation system. The Chinese Embassy in Angola will continue to create a more favorable environment for enterprise cooperation,” said Zhang.

Carlos Alberto Gregorio dos Santos, Angola's minister of public works, urban planning and housing, highly appraised the fair's role in promoting Angola's industry, real estate, and trade development.

Held against the backdrop of an accelerating adjustment in the global trade environment, where traditional models are in urgent need of breakthroughs, the fair is an exploration in line with this trend. By building an efficient docking platform, it not only injects practical value into the Angolan market but also paves new ways for China–Africa economic and trade cooperation.
