Les réponses à toutes vos questions answered
All employees of The Magnum Ice Cream Company (TMICC) who are eligible on the day we become an independently listed company will receive €300-worth of shares*.
We're calling this award of shares the Celebration Award.
You will receive your Celebration Award shares in December 2025. They don't immediately become yours - they are held for 12 months, known as a holding (or vesting) period. During this time, the shares are set aside for you.
When the 12-month holding period ends in December 2026, and provided you are still employed by TMICC, your Celebration Award shares become yours in full, and you'll officially become a TMICC shareholder. This means you'll be able to:
Share in our success: if we perform well and our share price increases, the value of your shares will increase too. Please remember that the value of shares can go down as well as up.
Receive dividends: whenever dividends are paid to shareholders, you'll receive a share of these.
Choose what to do with your shares: keep or sell them - it's entirely up to you.
*If you work in a jurisdiction that is transferring to TMICC after December 2025, you will receive your Celebration Award when this transfer takes place.
We're stepping into a bold new chapter as an independently listed company, and the Celebration Award is our way of thanking every colleague who's part of this moment.
Once your shares become yours, at the end of the 12-month holding period in December 2026, you'll officially become a TMICC shareholder, with your own stake in our future and the chance to share in our success as we grow together.
This is a moment for all of us to feel proud of how far we've come, and excited for everything we'll create next.
The Celebration Award is being overseen by our Reward Team and managed by our Share Plan Administrator, Computershare.
Computershare provides EquatePlus, your secure online account where you can view your shares, track their value, and manage them once they become yours in December 2026. You will receive more information about setting up your online EquatePlus account in January 2026.
Your Celebration Award shares are worth €300 (or the equivalent in US dollars or British pounds for shares awarded to certain participants) on the date they are awarded to you. After that, their value may go up or down over time, depending on our share price, which may fluctuate. Fluctuations in share price are normal for any publicly listed company like ours.
You'll be able to check our latest share price at any time through your EquatePlus account.
Like other publicly listed companies, our share price reflects the current market value of our shares.
It's perfectly normal for our share price to go up and down, sometimes a little each day, sometimes more over time. This is normal and depends on how we're performing, what's happening in the markets around us, and the wider economy.
Rather than a cash payment, we're awarding you €300 of shares - a real and exciting stake in what we'll achieve together during this new chapter. However, in a few countries, local legal or compliance rules may prevent us from awarding shares. If you're based in one of these locations, you'll still receive an award of the same value. After the 12-month holding period, you'll receive the cash equivalent of the shares' value at that time.
Under our share plan rules, your Celebration Award shares are held for 12 months before they become yours in December 2026. This is known as a conditional award with a holding (or vesting) period.
To receive your shares in full, you'll need to remain employed with us when your shares vest: i.e 12 months from the date you receive your Celebration Award.
After the 12-month holding period, your shares will officially become yours to keep or sell, and you'll officially become a shareholder in TMICC.
A shareholder is anyone who owns at least one share in a company. Once your Celebration Award shares become yours following the 12-month holding period (December 2026 for most people), you'll officially become a shareholder in TMICC.
As a shareholder, you'll own a stake in our company. This means you'll share in our success, benefit from any dividends that are paid, and, like all shareholders, experience the normal ups and downs of the market as your share value changes over time. You'll also have a personal interest in how we grow and a role in shaping our future together.
Owning a part of TMICC means having your very own stake in our shared future. Becoming a shareholder comes with exciting benefits:
Receive dividends: whenever dividends are paid to shareholders, you'll receive a share of these.
Choose what to do with your shares: keep or sell them - it's entirely up to you.
Remember: Share prices can go down as well as up, so the value of your shares may change over time.
We're a publicly listed company, which means our total value is divided into shares. When you own shares, you own part of the company and share in any success we create together.
The value of your Celebration Award shares can go up or down over time. This is normal and depends on how we're performing, what's happening in the markets around us, and the wider economy.
Some of the main things that can influence our share price include:
- How well we perform and expectations of future growth
- What's happening in the industries where we operate
- Global market trends and investor confidence
- The global economy.
Share prices naturally rise and fall, sometimes a little each day, sometimes more over time.
Dividends are a portion of our profits that may be shared with shareholders from time to time.
TMICC has announced that it expects to pay its first dividend in 2027 for the 2026 financial year, pending approval by the Board. If you keep your shares, you will receive this dividend, as well as any future dividends paid on your shares, for as long as you keep them.
Any dividends you receive will be re-invested to purchase additional shares, which will automatically appear in your EquatePlus account.
The Celebration Award is for all colleagues who meet the following eligibility criteria:
You are an employee of TMICC on the date that we become an independently listed company (different timings apply for those in deferred markets).
You are employed on the award date and remain employed 12 months after you received your award.
External contractors, consultants, agency workers and interns are not eligible to receive the Celebration Award.
Yes, all eligible colleagues, whether full-time or part-time, will receive €300 worth of shares (or a cash equivalent in certain locations).
Yes, if you're on parental leave, sick leave, or any other approved extended leave, you'll still receive your Celebration Award as long as you're employed on the award date, and the shares will become yours as long as you remain employed by us after the holding period (December 2026 for most people).
The Celebration Award is our way of celebrating this new chapter together, but we understand that owning shares may not be for everyone. There's no obligation to accept your award; it's entirely your choice.
If you'd prefer not to receive your award of shares, you can opt out via your EquatePlus account - the secure online platform, managed by Computershare.
If you're unsure about whether to opt out of accepting your award, read through the other resources available on this hub, which are designed to help you make an informed decision. You may also wish to speak to a professional financial or tax advisor. Please note that if you do decide to opt out of the Celebration Award, you will not receive an alternative benefit.
As long as you're employed by TMICC on the day we become a listed company, you'll receive your Celebration Award. If you started working with us after that date, you're unfortunately not eligible.
*If you work in a jurisdiction that is transferring to TMICC after December 2025, you will receive your Celebration Award after this transfer takes place.
Yes, if you're an Insider or on TMICC's Restricted List, you're still eligible to receive the Celebration Award.
However, there are some important rules for people on our Restricted List. Because you may have access to confidential information that isn't yet public, you can't buy or sell shares while in possession of that information, or during any closed period.
This means that while you can receive your Celebration Award shares, you won't be able to sell them if trading restrictions apply. You will be notified if such restrictions affect you.
You don't need to do anything to receive your Celebration Award, it will be awarded to you automatically in December 2025.
You'll receive an invitation email from EquatePlus, the secure online platform we're using to manage the Celebration Award.
This email will guide you through the process of activating and logging into your account.
We'll let you know when your Celebration Award is live and ready to view.
If you do not have a company email address, please see question 4.2: 'How do I receive the Celebration Award if I don't have a company email address?'.
If you do not have a TMICC email address, your local HR team will inform you on how to provide your personal details to be able to receive the invitation email from EquatePlus, the secure online platform we're using to manage your Celebration Award.
If you already use EquatePlus to manage any existing Unilever share plans, you'll continue to use the same platform for your Celebration Award.
However, your Celebration Award and any other TMICC share awards for which you are eligible will be held in a separate account. As a result, you'll receive new login details and an invitation email from EquatePlus with instructions on how to access it.
You'll still be able to view your existing Unilever shares in your original account.
You can view your Celebration Award shares at any time by logging into your EquatePlus account once that's live.
Once you're logged in, you can:
- See how many shares you have and their current value
- Check when your Celebration Award shares will become yours (generally in December 2026, 12 months from the date they were awarded to you)
- Update your personal details.
Once your Celebration Award shares become yours in December 2026 (12 months from the date they were awarded to you), you can choose what to do with them.
You can:
- Keep them and become a TMICC shareholder, owning your stake in the future we're creating together
- Sell some or all of them through your EquatePlus account.
- We'll share more information on how you can sell your shares closer to the date they become yours in December 2026.
No, you can only manage your TMICC awards via your EquatePlus account. You cannot buy shares in TMICC or in other companies through the platform.
We know people's circumstances can change, and what happens to your Celebration Award will depend on why you leave TMICC.
If you leave for reasons such as retirement, redundancy or ill health, you'll usually keep your Celebration Award shares, even if you leave during the 12-month holding period.
In most other situations, if you resign during this 12-month period, you will lose your award.
Following the 12-month holding period in December 2026, the Celebration Award shares become yours and belong to you, whether you stay with TMICC or move on to something new.
If you leave after your shares become yours, they'll stay safely in your EquatePlus account and you can keep, sell or transfer them whenever you wish.
Before you leave us, please ensure you update your EquatePlus account with a personal email address, so you can still be contacted about any updates to your shares.
Yes, the shares (or cash alternative if you are located in a country where shares cannot be awarded to you) you receive from your Celebration Award are typically subject to income tax (and social security in some countries).
Each country has its own rules on taxing shares, which means the amount of tax due, and how and when it's paid, will differ from place to place.
In most countries, we are legally required to report the value of your Celebration Award shares to the local tax authorities and then reduce the number of shares which will be delivered to you to pay any taxes due. This process happens after the shares become yours in December 2026, 12 months after the date they were awarded to you.
You may therefore see fewer shares in your EquatePlus account after we've paid your tax. This means that you don't need to pay anything up front, and the rest of your shares will then be yours to keep or sell.
Many countries have their own rules regarding the reporting of shares, especially those held in a foreign organisation or outside the country.
For more detailed information about the rules per country, see your 'Country Tax Notes' in the 'Resources' section of the share plans hub.
Once your Celebration Award shares become yours, they are yours to keep or sell whenever you choose.
If the value of your shares has increased between the date they became yours and when you sell them, you may need to pay Capital Gains Tax in some markets (or similar local taxes) on that increase in value.
You'll be able to see the value of your shares when they become yours, and when you sell them, in your EquatePlus account.
For more details about how Capital Gains Tax works in your country, visit your 'Country Tax Notes' in the 'Resources' section of the share plans hub.
Tax is complex and personal. If, after having checked all answers in this Tax section as well as reading your 'Country Tax Notes' in the 'Resources' section of the share plans hub, you still have tax concerns, we recommend that you speak to a qualified financial and/or tax advisor.
For further support, you can:
- Visit the share plans hub: for additional resources and country-specific tax information.
- Computershare: for questions about your EquatePlus account (once you've received your invitation email).
- Your local HR contact: for any other questions about the Celebration Award.
