Filing of the 2020 Universal Registration Document

On March 25, 2021, Bureau Veritas filed its 2020 Universal Registration Document (“Document d’enregistrement universel 2020”) with the French stock exchange regulatory authority, the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF).

The Universal Registration Document was filed in xHTML format and has been made available to the public free of charge in accordance with the regulations in force. It includes notably:

• The 2020 annual financial report, comprising Bureau Veritas SA statutory financial statements and Group consolidated financial statements;
• The Board of Directors’ report on corporate governance;

• The information related to the fees paid to Statutory Auditors for the financial year 2020;

For the first time, the Universal Registration Document is published in European Single Electronic Format (ESEF), with the five consolidated accounts tables (primary financial statements) marked up with XBRL tags. This was carried out voluntarily, one year ahead of the reporting obligation’s entry into force in France.

The French-language document is available on Bureau Veritas’ website (https://group.bureauveritas.com) as well as on the AMF website (www.amf-france.org). It is also available at the Company's registered office – Immeuble Newtime, 40/52 boulevard du Parc, 92200 Neuilly-sur-Seine, France.
