Argan Stock Gains Visibility With Danone Cold Storage Lease and On-Site Green Energy Argan has delivered a new AutOnom cold storage warehouse to Danone in Sorigny, near Tours, in Western France.
The facility includes on-site green energy production designed for self-consumption.
Argan and Danone have signed a long-term lease with a firm nine-year commitment for this warehouse.
This new project shows Argan continuing to focus on logistics assets that combine operational efficiency with environmental features, which can appeal to large corporate tenants such as Danone.
For investors, the firm nine-year lease adds visibility to Argan’s rental income from this site, while the cold storage and energy features highlight the company’s exposure to more specialized logistics real estate, which can come with both higher technical requirements and potential cost risks.

Argan Sa Announces Supervisory Board Changes At the meeting of the Supervisory Board held on December 9, 2025, and as a result of the signing of an employment contract between Argan SA and Mr. Eric DONNET effective from January 2, 2026, it was acknowledged that Mr. Eric DONNET no longer met all of the independence criteria set out in the Middlenext corporate governance code to which the Company refers, and therefore ceased to be considered independent within the meaning of said code. In light of this situation, Mr. Jean-Claude LE LAN Junior informed the members of the Supervisory Board of his intention to resign, with effect from December 31, 2025, in order to allow the Company to adjust its governance in compliance with the required quota of independent members. On the recommendation of the Nominations and Remuneration Committee, ARGAN’s Supervisory Board therefore unanimously decided to appoint Ms. Laurence BATLLE as an independent member of the Supervisory Board with effect from January 1, 2026, replacing Mr. Jean-Claude LE LAN Junior, for the remainder of his term of office, i.e. until the General Meeting scheduled for March 26, 2026. A graduate of ICN and holder of the DEC (Diplôme d’Expertise Comptable), Ms. Laurence BATLLE has more than 30 years of professional experience, including 8 years as CEO of major companies. She notably served as Chair of the Management Board of RATP Dev and as Executive Chair of Foncia. She is also a non-executive director of several companies. This appointment is made on a provisional basis and will therefore be submitted for ratification at the next General Meeting. Subject to ratification by the next General Meeting and to her renewal for a four-year term, it is specified that Ms. Laurence BATLLE will be appointed as a member and Chair of the Audit, Risk and Sustainability Committee, replacing Mr. Eric DONNET, who is expected to become Vice-Chair of the Supervisory Board with effect from March 27, 2026.

New minor risk - Dividend sustainability The company has an unstable dividend paying track record. The dividend has had an annual drop of over 20% in the past. Dividend yield: 5.0% This is considered a minor risk. If the company has cut or reduced its dividend in the past, it may be a sign that the underlying business is too cyclical to consistently maintain or grow the dividend over the long-term. It may also indicate the company prioritizes other outcomes instead of maintaining the dividend. For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (9.9% operating cash flow to total debt). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 5.4% per year for the foreseeable future.

ARGAN and 4MURS Inaugurate A New Aut0nom® for 9,500 Sq.M in Metz In the presence of Christophe Ranchoup (CEO of 4MURS), François Henrion (Augny’s Mayor) and Cedric Gouth (Vice-Chairman of the Eurométropole – European community of cities – of Metz), Aymar de Germay – ARGAN’s General Secretary – officially inaugurated the new Aut0nom® opened in Augny. With a surface of 9,500 sq.m, this site is operated by 4MURS as part of a nine-year fixed-term lease. ARGAN is thus back for a second project on this former air base, closed in 2010, which has been turned around into a business area where real estate company inaugurated in 2020 its most significant project in size: a multi-storey building of 185,000 sq.m operated by AMAZON. A structuring project: With a surface of 9,500 sq.m, the site of Augny is home to 7,000 SKUs sold by 4MURS and thus helps the company grow, more particularly through an expansion of its catalogues. With 500 employees and a portfolio of 89 stores in France, 4MURS is rethinking its positioning and has become a decoration concept-store, with an expertise in walls arrangements, through a diversified offering, granting easy access combined to an actual know-how. This new site of 9,500 sq.m is part of long-term plans, as the company has signed a nine-year fixed-term lease. 4MURS is already very well established in the area with headquarters in the neighbouring city of Marly. Located in the South area of Metz, at the heart of a metropolitan area of 240,000 inhabitants – with direct access to the A31 French highway – Augny offers an ideal location for logistics businesses. Combining ‘in-use’ carbon neutrality and a turn-around of artificialized soils: this new site aims for environmental excellence: This new warehouse is Aut0nom® -labelled. The site is equipped with a photovoltaic power station on the roof that grants 250 kWp coupled with energy storage batteries with a capacity of 250 kWh. This warehouse thus generates its own green energy for self-consumption. On-site heating is ensured by electric heat pumps and lighting with smart LED technology along presence and luminosity sensors. Aut0nom® provides close to half of energy needs for the site, meaning 170 MWh per year with green energy generated locally, drastically reducing the site’s CO2 emissions to only 1.2 kg/sq.m/year. Remaining emissions will be compensated by a reforestation plan in France, in the area of Bordeaux. The site is thus carbon neutral for the ‘in-use’ phase. Additionally, this development, on the military brownfield of Frescaty, enables to re-use already artificialized land and helps reduce the ecological impact of the whole project. Duyuru • Mar 21

New Risk • May 17
New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 11% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (9.9% operating cash flow to total debt). Minor Risk Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (11% increase in shares outstanding). Buy Or Sell Opportunity • Apr 25

The group has indeed initiated the construction of a distribution centre totaling 4,600 sq.m, on the municipality of Eslettes, located about 15 kilometres away from the Northern limits of Rouen. The agency under development will be operated by DSV, a major international player that offers transport and logistics services, through its DSV Road subsidiary, as part of a lease With a 9-year fixed term". This is the second time that DSV and ARGAN work together, as group already owns the site located in Gennevilliers that is also operated by the company specializing in transport and logistics solutions. With this new development, ARGAN is confirming its ability to support its lease customers' growth. A particular attention was given to limiting the site's carbon footprint. With an Aut0nom®? label, the building will generate and use its own green energy due to a photovoltaic power plant on its roof, together with batteries for energy storage. This equipment will help cover a significant part of DSV's energy needs; it will also contribute to one of the group's targets included in its approach to decarbonizing transportation and logistics through consistent improvement in its buildings' eco-efficiency. All of these investments are beneficial to targeting a 'BREEAM Very Good' certification. Major Estimate Revision • Jun 21
