GROUP CASINO ASSIGNED FIRST TIME RATING BY MOODY`S

To comply with the rating agency rotation recommended by the European regulatory body,

Casino Group has mandated Moody`s Investors Service (Moody`s) to assess the credit worthiness of the group.

Moody`s assigned today a rating of Ba1 with stable outlook to Casino Guichard Perrachon S.A. and its bond obligations. This new rating is based on the recognition of (i) the group`s unique multi-format retail strategy, (ii) its leading position in Latam representing a source of diversification of its revenue base, and (iii) its key achievements in the E-commerce segment.

The group cancelled today its agreement with the rating agency Fitch Ratings and requested that Fitch`s credit ratings be withdrawn.
