The merger by absorption of the parent company Surongo in July 2002 represented an important step in the company's development, as it resulted in a simplification of the Group's structure. Today, it is made up of Entreprises et Chemins de Fer en Chine, the reference shareholder, and Compagnie du Bois Sauvage, the operational Company.
The limited partnership Fingaren owns 86.4% of Entreprises et Chemins de Fer en Chine, which has become family-owned and held 43.3% (43.7% on a fully diluted basis) of Compagnie du Bois Sauvage on 31 December 2008. The Company is not aware of any shareholders' pact for the remainder, i.e. 56.7% of the capital, which can be considered free float.
