English Translation of a Press Release Announcing a Strategic Partnership and an émission d’obligations convertibles

We were recently commissioned to translate from French into English an official press release published by a French agri-food company, on the occasion of the signing of a strategic partnership with a U.S. group specialized in natural colorants.

🤝 A structuring technological and financial partnership

The press release announced:

• the implementation of a plan de développement pluriannuel (multi-year development plan),

• the émission d’obligations convertibles assorties de bons de souscription d’actions (convertible bonds with attached warrants),

• a attribution gratuite de bons de souscription (free grant of warrants),

• and the activation of a ligne de financement en fonds propres (equity line of financing).

These operations aimed to accelerate the industrial rollout of an innovative portfolio of colorants alimentaires naturels, while supporting R&D efforts and patent protection.

📑 A translation balancing financial accuracy and institutional readability

Translating a press release for the markets requires:

• rigorous financial terminology,

• exact consistency of technical data (prix d’exercice, actions nouvelles, potential dilution),

• and perfect readability for an international audience, including investors, industrial partners, and analysts.
