SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED JANUARY 19, 2021 PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS TECHNIP ENERGIES B.V. Ordinary Shares (€0.01 nominal value per share) This prospectus is being furnished to you as a shareholder of TechnipFMC plc (‘‘TechnipFMC’’), in connection with the planned distribution by TechnipFMC to its shareholders of % of our ordinary shares, €0.01 nominal value per share (the ‘‘Technip Energies shares’’), held by TechnipFMC immediately prior to such distribution (the ‘‘Distribution’’ or the ‘‘Spin-off’’). On , 2021 (the ‘‘Payment Date’’), TechnipFMC will distribute to each TechnipFMC shareholder Technip Energies shares for every TechnipFMC shares (the ‘‘Distribution Ratio’’) that such shareholder owns at 5:00 p.m., New York time, on , 2021 (the ‘‘Record Date’’). Depending on the respective shareholders’ bank or broker, it is expected that Technip Energies Shares will be credited to applicable securities accounts either on or as soon as possible after the Payment Date. The dividend detachment date (the ‘‘Ex Date’’) will be , 2021. Technip Energies will apply to list the Technip Energies shares on the Euronext Paris stock exchange (‘‘Euronext Paris’’), and we anticipate that the Technip Energies shares will begin trading separately from TechnipFMC shares on Euronext Paris at 9:00 a.m. CET on , 2021 (the ‘‘Listing Date’’). Immediately following the Distribution, Technip Energies will be a separate publicly traded company. The Distribution will be made in book-entry form. TechnipFMC shareholders will not receive fractional Technip Energies shares. In the event that a TechnipFMC shareholder is entitled to receive fractional Technip Energies shares, such fractional Technip Energies shares will be aggregated by the relevant intermediary and sold. Following completion of such sale, each such TechnipFMC shareholder will receive from the relevant intermediary a cash payment from the net proceeds of the sale in lieu of any fractional Technip Energies shares that such TechnipFMC shareholder would have otherwise received. It is expected that such net cash proceeds from the sale of the fractional Technip Energies shares will be credited by the relevant intermediary to the accounts of such TechnipFMC shareholders as soon as possible after the Payment Date. Except as described herein with respect to holders of physical share certificates representing TechnipFMC shares, TechnipFMC shareholders will not be required to take any further action in connection with the Spin-off. A proxy is not required, and no payments or any surrender or exchange of any TechnipFMC shares for Technip Energies shares is needed, except as described herein with respect to holders of physical share certificates representing TechnipFMC shares in the section entitled ‘‘The Spin-off––When and How To Receive Technip Energies Shares—TechnipFMC Shares—Holders of TechnipFMC physical share certificates.’’ The number of outstanding TechnipFMC shares will not change as a result of the Spin-off. In connection with the proposed Spin-off, TechnipFMC entered into a share purchase agreement, dated January 7, 2021 (the ‘‘Share Purchase Agreement’’), with Bpifrance Participations SA, a société anonyme incorporated under the laws of the Republic of France (‘‘BPI’’), pursuant to which BPI will purchase from TechnipFMC for $200.0 million, subject to adjustment, a number of Technip Energies shares determined based upon a thirty day volume-weighted average price (‘‘VWAP’’) of Technip Energies’ shares, less a six percent discount (the ‘‘Investment’’). The Investment is subject to the conditions set forth in the section entitled ‘‘Share Purchase Agreement.’’ Following the completion of the Distribution, TechnipFMC will retain approximately 49.9% of the Technip Energies shares, but intends to significantly reduce its shareholding in Technip Energies over the 18 months following the Spin-off, including in connection with the sale of shares to BPI pursuant to the Investment. We are a ‘‘foreign private issuer’’ under applicable U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules and will be eligible for reduced public company disclosure requirements.
