Annual Shareholders Meeting of May 16, 2025
The Annual Shareholders Meeting of the Michelin Group was held today in Clermont-Ferrand under the chairmanship of Florent Menegaux, Managing Chairman.
The event was webcast live on the Company's website https://www.michelin.com.
All of the resolutions submitted for shareholder approval were adopted, including, in particular:
the payment of a dividend of €1.38 per share, payable in cash as from May 23, 2025;
the re-election to the Supervisory Board of Wolf-Henning Scheider, who was also re-appointed by the Board to the Audit and Corporate Social Responsibility Committees, of which he was already a member; and
the 2024 compensation packages and 2025 compensation policy for the Managers and members of the Supervisory Board.
At the 2025 Annual Shareholders Meeting, Florent Menegaux spoke of the Company's need for agility in the face of recent crises and the importance of the "Michelin in Motion 2030" strategy for anticipating and absorbing shocks. He highlighted the transformations needed to prepare Michelin for the decades ahead, focusing on employee development, customer experience, innovation, data use, agile operating methods, and protecting the planet.
The innovation power of the Michelin Group was demonstrated in various ways during the meeting. A preview presentation was given on the new MICHELIN CrossClimate 3 and MICHELIN CrossClimate 3 Sport tires, which show how the Group continues to rise to technological challenges. Shareholders were able to learn about the scope of activities of the Manufacture des Talents, a concrete example of the Group's social innovation work. Serving as a major university for over 130,000 students in Clermont-Ferrand, the campus is open to Michelin employees as well as employees from other companies and public organizations. Shareholders then attended a presentation on an airless tire, an innovation-packed solution capable of withstanding extreme conditions and designed to fit out a lunar roving vehicle as part of NASA's ARTEMIS program.
Lastly, Florent Menegaux concluded the Annual Meeting by looking back at the deployment of the "Michelin in Motion 2030" strategy, reviewing the progress made in 2024: « Our "Michelin in Motion 2030" strategy provides us with a clear, relevant roadmap, reducing our dependence on the fluctuations of a single market. In the face of successive crises, from COVID to international instability, we are continuing to develop in the composite solutions sector, offering unique experiences for our customers while also transforming the Group to prepare for the future. The Manufacture des Talents illustrates our ambition to develop employees, and our obsession with customer experience remains central to our value creation strategy. Lastly, Michelin's capacity for innovation continues to be deployed in many areas, with more than 10 new product ranges launched and 245 patents filed last year, demonstrating the commitment of the Group and its teams to offering ever more proactive, innovative solutions ».For more information, you can find vote totals on the resolutions, answers to written questions, and a webcast of the entire Annual Meeting on the corporate website michelin.com.

Michelin-Starred Gwen Is Closing in Hollywood and Moving to the Westside
Gwen, the Michelin-starred restaurant, butcher shop, and bakery in Hollywood from Australia-born chef Curtis Stone, is closing in Hollywood after eight years and looking for another location on the Westside, according to a statement emailed to Eater. Stone opened the restaurant with his brother Luke in 2016 as a follow-up to his Beverly Hills tasting menu destination, Maude, which debuted in 2014. According to Stone, he and his brother, who will remain business partners, have a few different locations in mind but haven't settled on one yet. The last day of business for Gwen will likely be in early-to-mid August, depending on negotiations with the landlord, giving fans almost two months to visit the restaurant before it leaves Hollywood. In 2016, Eater awarded Gwen 'Most Beautiful Restaurant of the Year' for its gorgeous modern Art Deco design, soaring ceilings, and blend of industrial features. The menu incorporated tasting menu elements and a la carte options but centered around the wood-fired grill, which was fully visible from the dining room. Eventually, it settled into a high-end steakhouse with meats dry-aged on the premises. Over the years, Stone expanded the butcher shop to become one of the top destinations for meat in the city, with house-made charcuterie and salumi, pastries, and sandwiches. The restaurant was featured in an Eater video earlier this year as one of the world's top steakhouses.. Gwen's move from Hollywood signals an overall weakness in the neighborhood's dining scene as a result of the 2023 writers' and actors' strikes and the January 2025 wildfires. In the emailed statement, Stone said, 'We've made the difficult decision to move the restaurant because we believe there's an even greater opportunity to grow, develop, and evolve. The heart of Gwen will never change, but we're always seeking ways to refine, reimagine, and raise the bar.' The chef also thanked front and back-of-house staff as well as loyal regulars. Stone elaborated to Eater over text that 'Hollywood is still such a challenge.' Stone also closed Maude in 2024 after a 10-year run and morphed the Beverly Hills space into the Pie Room, a casual daytime pastry, cafe, and wine bar. Over the years, Stone has been busy with television projects in addition to operating his LA restaurants, serving as a judge on Crime Scene Kitchen on Fox, Field Trip with Curtis Stone on PBS, and hosting My Kitchen Rules on Fox. In 2024, he also opened Woodend by Curtis Stone at the Maroma resort in Mexico's Riviera Maya near Cancun. See More: LA Restaurant Closings LA Restaurant News

Portland, Get Ready for Stellar Michelin-Starred Texas Barbecue Royalty
The Portland barbecue scene is getting a surprise entrant: Michelin-starred Austin, Texas, favorite La Barbecue is setting up an outpost far from home with the planned opening of sister restaurant Lil' Barbecue this year. Ben Vaughan, general manager and pitmaster at the Austin-based outfit, will be leading the charge to bring brisket, pork and beef ribs, sausages, and more to a yet-to-be-found locale in Portland. Vaughan says he initially pitched the idea of expanding to La Barbecue owner Ali Clem, after enjoying his first trip to Portland last year. When he talked to locals about what he does for work back in Texas, he received a lot of encouragement to open a restaurant. 'They were like, 'You've got to move up here. We need more barbecue,'' Vaughan says. 'That got the wheels turning in my head of, I could move up there, you know?' The idea of expansion wasn't a far-off concept. Clem and her late wife LeAnn Mueller, a descendant of Texas barbecue royalty, had previously attempted to open a Los Angeles-area food truck in 2017, only to have those plans nixed due to Los Angeles County regulations around the use of offset smokers. But the move to Portland will give Vaughan a chance to escape the oppressive Central Texas summer heat, he says. 'The weather here is rough,' Vaughan says. 'I don't know if you've ever been in Central Texas in the summer, but it's hot and humid, and I work outside over smokers all day, so everything just fell into place when I brought [the idea of expanding] to Ali; she signed off and was excited about it, so I've been working on a concept for a few months now.' (Just don't tell him about those heat domes.) As for Lil' Barbecue's menu, Vaughan says it'll be 'very similar' to La Barbecue's offerings, meaning saucy pork ribs with 'a bright, lightly sweet crust,' as Texas Monthly describes it; pulled pork; brisket; beef ribs; smoked turkey; and homemade, snappy sausages in traditional, jalapeño, and chipotle flavors. If the rest of the menu holds true, diners can expect to pull any of those meats into a sandwich, and there will also be a number of specialty sandwich options where one can get a pulled pork sandwich laden with chipotle coleslaw or a Frito pie with chopped brisket. One change from the Austin original will be the shift to an all-day, bar-restaurant format; Vaughan says that barbecue in Central Texas is very much a lunch thing that goes from 11 a.m. until sellout around 2 p.m. or 3 p.m. He's hoping to keep a steady stream of food going throughout the day, so people won't have to rush to get that hit of barbecue. There will also be the added layer of bar food, with Vaughan already picturing selling a burger made of brisket trimmings that is typically a special at La Barbecue. Clem will be a co-owner in the new venture, and Vaughan says she'll be in Portland at the end of June to help scout a location for the new restaurant. They're looking to open on the East side of Portland, if possible, and Vaughan praised the walkability of the city, which is different from the Austin scene (though both cities favor food trucks and claim to keep it weird). Besides locking down a location, the buildout of two custom, Texas-made smokers will add to the timeline of the opening. They have a rotisserie smoker being built by M&M BBQ Company, as well as an offset smoker from Mill Scale Metalworks in Lockhart, Texas, both of which are set to be completed and delivered by August or September. If all goes well, Vaughan expects to be open by late summer or early fall. See More:

Could Pennsylvania soon have its first Michelin star restaurant?
(WHTM) — Michelin stars are awarded only to restaurants that display the epitome of culinary excellence through their cooking. Cities like Philadelphia are known for their vibrant food scenes, but no Pennsylvania restaurants have a Michelin star. The Michelin Guide lists restaurants awarded a Michelin star, one of the highest culinary achievements a restaurant can earn. While the guide has sent its inspectors to hundreds of cities and counties across the globe, no Pennsylvania restaurants are listed. Close Thanks for signing up! Watch for us in your inbox. Subscribe Now However, this could soon change. In May, the MICHELIN Guide announced it would be coming to Philadelphia and Boston for its newly minted MICHELIN Guide Northeast Cities edition. 'We are thrilled for Boston and Philadelphia to join the MICHELIN Guide Northeast Cities as both are premier destinations for gourmets to experience a rich diversity of cuisine and culinary history,' said Gwendal Poullennec, International Director of the MICHELIN Guides. 'The local passion, talent and camaraderie in both Boston and Philadelphia is evident in their restaurant communities and the anonymous Inspectors look forward to spotlighting their unique experiences in both cities.' The announcement said that Michelin Inspectors are already in the field, making reservations and hunting down hidden gems and local favorites. Michelin added that it won't be long before Pennsylvanians start seeing familiar restaurants in the famed guide. Pennsylvania fried chicken eatery announces expansion According to Michelin, the selection process is determined by anonymous inspectors, who are full-time employees who are former restaurant and hospitality professionals. Several inspectors must eat at each restaurant before coming to a final decision. A Michelin star is awarded to the restaurant's food on the plate and nothing else, according to Michelin. Only 260 of the nation's top eateries have been awarded a Michelin star, and fewer than 50 have earned multiple. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
