CMA CGM receives regulatory approvals for its investment in CEVA

Baar, Switzerland, 11 July, 2018 - CEVA Logistics A.G. ("CEVA"), one of the
leading asset-light third-party logistics providers, announces that CMA CGM S.A.
("CMA CGN") has obtained all regulatory approvals required in connection with
its investment in CEVA and will become a regular 24.99% shareholder in CEVA.

CMA CGM, the third largest container shipping group in the world, made a
strategic investment in convertible securities issued by CEVA in a concurrent
private placement at the time of CEVA's initial public offering on the SIX Swiss
Exchange (the "IPO"). CMA CGM has now obtained all required regulatory approvals
and the securities will be converted into registered ordinary shares in the
coming days. Following conversion, CMA CGM will hold 24.99% of CEVA's share
capital. CMA CGM has entered into a lock-up agreement for one year following the
IPO and has agreed not to increase its shareholding in CEVA for six months
post-IPO.

CEVA and CMA CGM will work together to expand their commercial cooperation and
to develop complementary services, which address the increasing customer need
for integrated end-to-end solutions. Both companies explore arms-length
cooperation and believe that the partnership could create significant value to
customers and would be mutually beneficial to both companies.

CEVA's CEO, Xavier Urbain, commented: "It is good news that regulatory approvals
have been obtained so quickly and we can now fully engage. We are excited about
the partnership with CMA CGM."
