On Thursday, Faes Farma’s shareholders’ meeting approved the renewal of its board of directors following the changes in shareholding over the past year, which have resulted in the departure of two families with long-standing ties to the company: the Basagoiti and Fernández de Valderrama families.

Specifically, Carmen Basagoiti and Gonzalo Fernández de Valderrama have left the board; they have been replaced by Jacobo Llanza, representing the Alantra fund (which holds 9.5 per cent of the shares), and by Ángel Agudo, representing Asúa, the family office of the Álava-based businessman who is the main shareholder of Cvne, holding 7.05 per cent of the shares.

At the Company’s Annual General Meeting, validly held on second call, all the proposals of the Board of Directors set out under the various items on the Agenda were approved:

  • Approval of the annual accounts, the individual and consolidated management reports, as well as the non-financial information statement and sustainability information for the financial year 2025.
