Evolution in Saint-Gobain governance

The Board has unanimously decided to appoint Benoit Bazin as Chief Executive Officer with effect from July 1, 2021. PierreAndré de Chalendar will continue to serve as Chairman of the Board of Directors.

Pierre-André de Chalendar, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Saint-Gobain, commented: “The record results of the Group for second-half 2020, in a year in which the world suffered its worst crisis in decades, confirms the pertinence of the Group’s differentiation strategy and the success of its profound transformation begun several years ago. Its new decentralized organization closely aligned with its markets and customers gives it the agility, efficiency and responsiveness it needs to capture all opportunities and maximize synergies. In reshaping its portfolio, the Group is focusing its energies on businesses offering the highest potential for profitable, sustainable growth. Our record free cash flow generation, the result of operational improvements and strict financial discipline, has enabled us to significantly reduce our debt despite the difficult economic environment. I would like to sincerely thank the teams for these excellent results achieved and for their unwavering commitment and solidarity.

Benoit Bazin, Chief Operating Officer of Saint-Gobain, commented: “The Group’s performance in 2020 testifies to the impressive reaction of our teams in our new organization by country and by market, who took the right health decisions from the very outset of the crisis, and then in the second half successfully seized all opportunities for growth."
