About this update from Ramsay Generale De Sante Sa

PRESS RELEASE                 Paris, 20 February 2026 New step for Ramsay Santé in connection with Ramsay Health Care's proposal to distribute its shareholding in Ramsay Santé to its shareholders Ramsay Générale de Santé (“ Ramsay Santé ” or the “ Group ”) takes note of the proposal announced today (the “ Proposal ”) by Ramsay Health Care Limited (“ RHC ”) to distribute its 52.79% shareholding in Ramsay Santé to its own shareholders. The Proposal follows RHC's review of its strategic options associated with its majority shareholding in Ramsay Santé, which the Group acknowledged in its press release dated 25 November 2025. This Proposal does not preclude the exploration of alternative options, which RHC states it is open to consider, including by engaging discussions with potentially interested third parties. The Board of Directors of Ramsay Santé has been duly informed of this Proposal, which was presented at a meeting held today. Listed on Euronext Paris and major player in private hospital care in France and Europe, Ramsay Santé has implemented its development strategy and built a market leading position independently of RHC, supported by a dedicated management team and a clear governance framework. The Group also benefits from its own standalone balance sheet and financing structure independent of RHC. The Proposal would mark a new step forward for the Group in its renewed ambition to serve its patients as closely as possible, supported by a new and broader shareholding and driven by the talent and commitment of all its employees and medical partners. Ramsay Santé intends to continue rolling out its strategic roadmap, based on investment in innovation, operational excellence and maintaining rigorous financial management. Pascal Roché, CEO of Ramsay Santé, states: “ The proposal announced today would open a new chapter for Ramsay Santé, following years of confidence from RHC as a key shareholder alongside Crédit Agricole Assurances. Our group has solid resources and positions that allow us to approach this step with confidence and serenity. More than ever, our priority remains the same: providing our patients with high-quality, innovative and accessible care, in close collaboration with healthcare professionals and the regions. We remain committed to our mission of improving health through constant innovation and see this step as an opportunity to continue on our path of development, with ambition and responsibility.” RHC also announced that it had decided to terminate the shareholders' agreement entered into on 30 September 2014 with Crédit Agricole Assurances, through its subsidiary Predica, a reference shareholder with a 39.82% stake in Ramsay Santé. In accordance with its terms, the shareholders' agreement will terminate with effect on 1 October 2026. In view of the transaction, Crédit Agricole Assurances reiterated its commitment as a long-term shareholder of Ramsay Santé and its confidence in the Group's strategy, teams and growth potential. Furthermore, Crédit Agricole Assurances confirmed that it did not intend to increase its shareholding in the Company or take control of it. Terms and next steps: According to information released by RHC, the Proposal could be implemented during Q4 2026, subject to the required approvals.
