Syensqo had its shares listed on Euronext Brussels and Euronext Paris on 11 December three days after shareholders voted 99.53% in favour of its demerger from Solvay. It also expects to be included in other major stock market indices, such as BEL20, Stoxx Europe 600, MSCI Europe ad FTSE Russell, subject to each individual index review.

The new company employs over 13,000 employees and is spread across the world, with 41% of 2022 net sales in the Americas, 36% in Asia-Pacific and 23% Europe. The initial share price of €90 gives it a market capitalisation of € 9.53 billion.

Syensqo, the speciality chemicals firm that is planned to be split out from Solvay, has presented its mid-term financial targets and sustainability commitments at its inaugural capital markets day. The separation is subject to shareholder approval at an extraordinary general meeting approval in Brussels on 8 December. Meanwhile the Belgian Financial Services & Markets Authority has approved a prospectus relating to listing Syensq’s shares on Euronext Brussels and Euronext Paris.
