Dear Fellow DBV Shareholders,

Each year, I begin my letter to you with the reminder that DBV was founded upon the belief that children with food allergies, their families, and the allergists who treat them, need, and deserve, multiple treatment options. That belief continues to guide our corporate strategy and drives our employees each day as a foundational element of DBV.

Financial diligence and responsible, targeted spending are core components of our culture. We know and appreciate that our shareholders have placed their trust in us, that we will execute with care spending practices appropriate for a late-development stage biotechnology company. In 2022, DBV secured financial support to advance our strategy for Viaskin^™ Peanut. In May, DBV successfully launched an At-The-Market program and subsequently completed sales of new ordinary shares in the form of American Depository Shares (ADSs) for a total gross amount of $15.3 million. In June, DBV announced a $194 million private investment in public equity (PIPE) financing. DBV closed Q2 2022 with a cash balance of $248 million following the ATM and PIPE offerings. We remain committed that this shot in the arm will fuel DBV’s operations through top-line results of our new, Phase 3 Pivotal Study of Viaskin Peanut in 4 – 7 year old children with peanut allergy, VITESSE, anticipated in the first half of 2025.

In June 2022, DBV announced positive topline results from EPITOPE, our Phase 3 Pivotal Study of Viaskin Peanut in toddlers 1 – 3 years old. We shared that 67 percent of subjects treated with Viaskin Peanut 250 µg met response criteria after 12 months, as compared with 33.5 percent of subjects in the placebo arm. The EPITOPE safety results were generally consistent with the safety profile of Viaskin Peanut 250 µg observed in our studies of children ages 4 and older with a confirmed peanut allergy. As patient safety and treatment experience are a priority for DBV, it was encouraging to learn that of the serious adverse events (SAEs) reported, only 1 of the SAEs was deemed related to treatment. Further, of the four subjects in the Viaskin Peanut arm having experienced an anaphylactic reaction determined to be related to, or possibly related to, treatment, 3 resolved with a single dose of epinephrine and 1 resolved without epinephrine. All reported anaphylactic reactions were deemed mild to moderate in severity. In the 12-month treatment period, the trial completion rate was 84.8 percent and was balanced between the Viaskin Peanut and placebo arms. We were also pleased to see that the mean subject compliance to daily patch treatment was above 95 percent in both the active and placebo arms.

The EPITOPE study results were widely shared with the food allergy community with positive reception. DBV also actively engaged in sharing the full EPITOPE trial results at global medical congresses and is currently pursuing publication of the data in a peer-reviewed journal. We know that most peanut-allergic children are diagnosed between 1 – 3 years of age, and yet there are currently no FDA-approved therapies for this age group. The EPITOPE data advanced our understanding of investigational epicutaneous immunotherapy and its ability to induce an immune response with minimal amounts of allergen. We believe that these positive findings support the potential clinical benefit of Viaskin Peanut in this underserved population and look forward to exploring next steps with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Throughout 2022, DBV worked hard to develop and align with the FDA on key elements of the VITESSE protocol, DBV’s Phase 3 Pivotal Study in children ages 4 – 7 years old with a confirmed peanut allergy. While the FDA issued a partial clinical hold (PCH) on VITESSE in September 2022, DBV appreciated the clear feedback from the FDA, which specified changes to elements of the VITESSE protocol with the intent for the trial to support a future biologics license application (BLA) submission. The FDA communication contained four protocol modifications: the redefinition of the minimal daily wear time, the addition of a statistical test for the patch adhesion assessment, the reclassification of certain adverse events (AEs) to adverse events of special interest (AESIs) and an increase in the number of trial participants on active treatment. Thankfully, there was no disruption to subjects, as DBV had not yet begun screening or recruitment of subjects into the VITESSE study. Further, the PCH only applied to VITESSE and did not impact any other ongoing DBV clinical studies. While the PCH was a temporary setback, DBV is grateful for the FDA’s additional feedback reflecting careful attention to the VITESSE study and our goal for a path forward.

In December 2022, DBV announced that the FDA had lifted the PCH on the VITESSE Phase 3 Pivotal Study. In lifting the PCH, the FDA confirmed DBV satisfactorily addressed all clinical hold issues identified in the PCH letter. The FDA stated that DBV may proceed with VITESSE with the confirmed revisions to the protocol. Subsequently, DBV submitted the updated protocol to study sites for subsequent Institutional Review Boards (IRB)/Ethics Committees (EC) approval. DBV is currently advancing study forward. We know that the food allergy community is eagerly awaiting the opportunity to study and expand our learnings about the potential of epicutaneous immunotherapy and Viaskin Peanut. The Company expects to initiate patient screening in Q1 2023 with the last patient screened in 1H 2024 and topline results anticipated in 1H 2025.

While it is no secret that 2022 contained both highs and lows for DBV, looking back, I can say with certainty that I am proud of our persistence that led to standing where we are today. DBV rebuilt confidence, strengthened our relationships, and earned our current achievements. Because of our strategic actions in 2022, we are strongly positioned for the future. We have not only progressed the development of our lead product candidate, but also have earlier stage food allergy programs in phase 2 of clinical development for cow’s milk allergy and eosinophilic esophagitis. I am confident that DBV will be well-positioned to bring innovative, specialized therapies to market that help make a meaningful difference to patients worldwide.

Reflecting on the year, 2022 was characterized by perseverance and transformation for DBV. At our core remains the steadfast dedication to science and technology that sets us apart from other biotechnology companies. Those of you who have been a part of our journey for some time know that our commitment to food allergic families is embedded in our corporate culture. We are here to serve our future patients, to give them hope when treatment options have thus far been so limited. We believe that it is unacceptable that avoidance and OIT are the only means of managing a peanut allergy. The curious and courageous minds that compose DBV’s global personnel work hard every day to one day bring to market an innovative and transformative therapy for children and toddlers living with peanut allergy. Our team will not give up on them. We are looking forward to 2023 as we are actively recruiting for the VITESSE Phase 3 Pivotal Study and embarking on possibilities stemming from the results of our EPITOPE data. Thank you very much for your trust and support as a shareholder—and for being an active contributor to the success of our journey.

We have sent you this proxy statement, the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the proxy card and a copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, because you owned our Ordinary Shares or ADSs on March 15, 2023.

Our registrar, Société Générale Securities Services intends to commence distribution of the proxy materials to shareholders of Ordinary Shares on or about March 24, 2023, in accordance with French law and requirements.

Who may vote?

Ordinary shareholders of record and bearer shareholders

If you are a holder of Ordinary Shares at 12:00 AM Paris time on April 6, 2023 you will be eligible to vote at the Annual General Meeting. In deciding all matters at the Annual General Meeting, each shareholder will be entitled to one vote for each share of our Ordinary Shares held by them on the record date.

In accordance with article R. 225-85 of the French Commercial Code, only those holders of Ordinary Shares who can prove their status by having their shares registered in their name, or in the name of an intermediary duly registered on their behalf, on the second business day prior to the meeting, i.e. April 6, 2023 at 12:00 AM Paris time (the “Ordinary Share Record Date”), either in the registered share accounts or in the bearer share accounts held by their authorized intermediary, will be eligible to vote.

For registered shareholders, this registration in the registered share accounts on the Ordinary Share Record Date is sufficient to enable them to vote their Shares.

For bearer shareholders, it is the authorized intermediaries who maintain the bearer share accounts who directly prove their clients’ status as shareholders to Société Générale Securities Services (the centralizing institution for the meeting mandated by DBV Technologies) by producing a certificate of participation which they attach to the single postal voting or proxy form drawn up in the name of the shareholder or on behalf of the shareholder represented by the registered intermediary.

Holders of American Depositary Shares

If you are a registered holder of ADSs on the books of Citibank, N.A. on March 15, 2023 (the “ADS Record Date”), then at or prior to 10:00 AM Eastern Time on April 5, 2023, you may provide instructions to the Depositary as to how to vote the Ordinary Shares underlying your ADSs on the issues set forth in this proxy statement. The Depositary will mail you a voting instruction card if you hold ADSs in your own name on the Depositary’s share register (“Registered Holders”). If, however, on the ADS Record Date you held your ADSs through a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee/agent (“Beneficial Holders”), it is anticipated that such bank, broker, custodian or nominee/agent will forward voting instruction forms to you.

5

As an ADS holder, you will not be entitled to vote in person at the Annual General Meeting. To the extent you provide the Depositary or your broker, bank or other nominee, as applicable, with voting instructions, the Depositary will, to the extent practicable and subject to French law and the terms of the deposit agreement, vote the Ordinary Shares underlying your ADSs in accordance with your instructions.

How many votes do I have?

Each share of our Ordinary Shares that you own entitles you to one vote. Each ADS represents one-half of one Ordinary Share. Voting instructions with respect to ADSs may be given only in respect of a number of ADSs representing an integral number of Ordinary Shares.

How will my Ordinary Shares be voted if I do not vote?

If you hold Ordinary Shares and do not (i) grant your voting proxy directly to the chairman of the Annual General Meeting, (ii) vote in person at the Annual General Meeting, (iii) grant your voting proxy to another shareholder, your spouse, or your partner with whom you have entered into a civil union, (iv) vote by submitting your proxy card by mail or (v) vote electronically via Votaccess, your Ordinary Shares will not be counted as votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote with respect to any matter.

If you hold Ordinary Shares and grant your voting proxy directly to the chairman of the Annual General Meeting without specifying how you wish to vote with respect to a particular matter, your Ordinary Shares will be voted in accordance with the Board of Directors’ recommendations.

If you own Ordinary Shares in “street name” through a broker, bank or other nominee and you do not direct your broker how to vote your shares on the proposals, your shares will not be voted on any proposal on which the broker does not have discretionary authority to vote. This is referred to as a broker non-vote. We believe that all of our proposals are non-routine matters and your broker cannot vote your shares for which you have not provided voting instructions. Broker non-votes on a particular proposal will not be counted as votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote with respect to such matter.

How will the Ordinary Shares underlying my ADSs be voted if I do not provide voting instructions to the Depositary or my broker, bank or other nominee?

With respect to Ordinary Shares represented by ADSs for which no timely voting instructions are received by the Depositary from a holder of ADSs, the Depositary shall not vote such Ordinary Shares. The Depositary will not itself exercise any voting discretion in respect of any Ordinary Shares.

If you own ADSs in “street name” through a broker, bank or other nominee and you do not direct your broker how to instruct the Depositary how to vote the Ordinary Shares represented by your ADSs on the proposals, your shares will not be voted on any proposal on which the broker does not have discretionary authority to provide voting instructions to the Depositary. This is referred to as a broker non-vote. We believe that all of our proposals are non-routine matters and your broker cannot provide voting instructions to the Depositary with respect to how to vote the Ordinary Shares represented by your ADSs for which you have not provided voting instructions. Broker non-votes on a particular proposal will not be counted as votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote with respect to such matter.

6

How will my Ordinary Shares be voted if I grant my proxy to the chairman of the Annual General Meeting?

If you are a holder of Ordinary Shares and you grant your proxy to the chairman of the Annual General Meeting, the chairman of the Annual General Meeting will vote your Ordinary Shares in accordance with the Board of Directors’ recommendations. As a result, your Ordinary Shares would be voted “FOR” the nominees of the Board of Directors in Proposal Nos. 6 to 9 and “FOR” each of Proposal Nos. 1 to 5 and 10 to 41.

How many votes are needed for approval of each proposed resolution?

What is an “abstention” and how would it affect the vote?

With respect to Ordinary Shares, an “abstention” occurs when a shareholder votes by mail with instructions to abstain from voting regarding a particular matter or without making a selection with respect to a particular matter.

With respect to ADSs, an abstention occurs when a holder of ADSs sends proxy instructions to the Depositary to abstain from voting regarding a particular matter.

Abstentions by holders of Ordinary Shares or by holders of ADSs will not be counted toward a quorum and will not be counted as votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on matters on which a holder has abstained.

Who will count the votes at the Annual General Meeting?

Representatives of Société Générale Securities Services and our legal department will tabulate the votes and act as inspectors of election.

What Constitutes a Quorum for the Annual Meeting?

Consistent with French law, our by-laws provide that a quorum requires the presence of shareholders having at least (1) 20% of the shares entitled to vote in the case of an ordinary shareholders’ general meeting or at an extraordinary shareholders’ general meeting where shareholders are voting on a capital increase by capitalization of reserves, profits or share premium, or (2) 25% of the shares entitled to vote in the case of any other extraordinary shareholders’ general meeting.

How can I vote my Ordinary Shares or ADSs?

If you hold Ordinary Shares

In order to facilitate their participation in the Annual General Meeting, the Company offers its holders of Ordinary Shares the possibility of voting via Votaccess.

The Votaccess website will be open from March 24, 2023, at 9:00 AM Paris time to April 11, 2023 at 3:00 PM Paris time.

In order to avoid any possible bottleneck on the Votaccess platform, shareholders are strongly recommended not to wait until the end of the opening period of Votaccess to enter their instructions.

7

Only holders of bearer shares whose account-holding institution has subscribed to the Votaccess system and offers them this service for this general meeting will be able to access it. The securities account holder of the bearer shareholder, who does not subscribe to Votaccess or who makes access to the site subject to conditions of use, will indicate to the shareholder how to proceed.

Shareholders wishing to participate in the Annual General Meeting may choose one of the following options:

You may vote in person at the Annual General Meeting so long as you do not submit your proxy card by mail or appoint a proxy in advance of the meeting.

Shareholders who have chosen to vote by mail using the single form or via Votaccess may:

Postal votes cast by paper means will only be taken into account if the duly completed and signed forms (and accompanied by the certificate of participation for bearer shares) reach the aforementioned Meetings Department of Société Générale at least three days before the date of the general meeting, i.e., no later than April 9, 2023, 11:59 PM Paris time.

In accordance with the provisions of Article R. 225-79 of the French Commercial Code, notification of the appointment and revocation of a proxy to the Chairman or to another shareholder, your spouse, or your partner with whom you have entered into a civil union, may also be made in the following manner:

In addition, if you give a proxy vote to another shareholder, to your spouse or to your partner with whom you have entered into a civil union, the voting proxy needs to address its voting instructions to Société Générale for the exercise of its mandates in the form of a scanned copy of the single form, by e-mail to the following

8

address: assemblees.generales@sgss.socgen.com. The form must bear the surname, first name and address of the person being named as proxy, the words “In the capacity of proxy”, and must be dated and signed. The direction of the vote must be indicated in the “I vote by mail” box of the form. The proxy must attach a copy of his or her identity card and, if applicable, a power of attorney from the legal entity he/she represents. To this end, the authorized intermediary holding the account shall notify the Company or its agent of the transfer of ownership and provide it with the necessary information. No transfer of ownership made after Ordinary Share Record Date, regardless of the means used, shall be notified by the authorized intermediary holding the account or taken into consideration by the Company, notwithstanding any agreement to the contrary. It should be noted that for any proxy given by a shareholder without indication of a proxy holder, the chairman of the Annual General Meeting shall cast a vote in favor of the adoption of draft resolutions presented or approved by the Board of Directors, and a vote against the adoption of all other draft resolutions.

Please also note that shareholders who wish to ask questions may submit these in writing, accompanied by the shareholder’s certificate of registration, to investors@dbv-technologies.com. Questions must be submitted by April 4, 2023, at 11:59 PM Paris time.

If you hold ADSs

If you are a holder of ADSs, you may give voting instructions to the Depositary or your broker, bank, or other nominee, as applicable, with respect to the Ordinary Shares underlying your ADSs. If you held ADSs as of the ADS Record Date, you have the right to instruct the Depositary - if you held your ADSs directly - or the right to instruct your broker, bank, or other nominee - if you held your ADSs through such intermediary - how to vote.

If you are a registered holder of ADSs on the books of the Depositary as of the ADS Record Date, the Depositary will mail you a Voting Instruction Form. So long as the Depositary receives your Voting Instruction Form on or prior to 10:00 AM Eastern Time on April 5, 2023, it will, to the extent practicable and subject to French law and the terms of the deposit agreement, vote the underlying Ordinary Shares as you instruct.

If your ADSs are held through a broker, bank, or other nominee as of the ADS Record Date, such intermediary will provide you with instructions on how you may give voting instructions with respect to the Ordinary Shares underlying your ADSs. Please check with your broker, bank, or other nominee, as applicable, and carefully follow the voting instructions provided to you.

As an ADS holder, you will not be entitled to vote in person at the Annual General Meeting. To the extent you provide the Depositary or your broker, bank, or other nominee, as applicable, with voting instructions, the Depositary will, to the extent practicable and subject to French law and the terms of the deposit agreement, vote the Ordinary Shares underlying your ADSs in accordance with your instructions.

How does the Board of Directors recommend that I vote on the proposals?

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR” the nominees to the Board of Directors in Proposal Nos. 6 to 9 and “FOR” each of Proposal Nos. 1 to 5 and 10 to 41.

What if I receive more than one proxy card?

You may receive more than one proxy card if you hold shares in more than one account, which may be in registered form or held in street name. Please vote in the manner described above under “How can I vote my Ordinary Shares or ADSs?” for each account to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Is voting confidential?

We will keep all the proxies, ballots and voting tabulations private. We only let our Inspector of Election examine these documents. Management will not know how you voted on a specific proposal unless it is

9

necessary to meet legal requirements. We will, however, forward to management any written comments you make on the proxy card or that you otherwise provide.

Where can I find the voting results of the Annual General Meeting?

The preliminary voting results will be announced at the annual meeting, and we will publish preliminary results, or final results if available, in a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days of the annual meeting. If final results are unavailable at the time we file the Form 8-K, then we will file an amended Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose the final voting results within four business days after the final voting results are known. 

What Are the Costs of Soliciting These Proxies?

We will pay all of the costs of soliciting these proxies. Our directors and employees may solicit proxies in person or by telephone, fax or email. We will pay these employees and directors no additional compensation for these services. We will ask banks, brokers and other institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward these proxy materials to their principals and to obtain authority to execute proxies. We will then reimburse them for their expenses.

Where is the Annual General Meeting?

The Annual General Meeting will be held at 10:00 AM, Paris time, on April 12, 2023 at the Company’s headquarters located at 177-181 Avenue Pierre Brossolette – 92120 Montrouge, France.

On April 12, 2023, starting at 10:00 AM Paris time, the Annual General Meeting will be webcast with live audio on the Company’s website http://www.dbv-technologies.com, including the presentation of the results of the votes on the resolutions received by Société Générale Securities Services. Shareholders will also be able to access the recorded webcast of the Annual General Meeting on the Company’s website for two years.

Who may attend the Annual General Meeting?

Holders of record of Ordinary Shares as of 12:00 AM Paris time, on April 6, 2023 or their duly appointed proxies, may attend the Annual General Meeting. Holders of Ordinary Shares may request an admission card for the Annual General Meeting by checking the appropriate box on the proxy form, dating and signing it, and returning the proxy form by regular mail or may present evidence of their status as a shareholder at the Annual General Meeting as of 12:00 AM Paris time, on April 6, 2023.

Holders of ADSs will not be able to attend the Annual General Meeting.

Can I vote in person at the Annual General Meeting?

If you hold Ordinary Shares as of 12:00 AM, Paris time, on April 6, 2023 you may vote in person at the Annual General Meeting unless you submit your proxy or voting instructions prior to the Annual General Meeting.

If you hold ADSs, you will not be able to vote the Ordinary Shares underlying your ADSs in person at the Annual General Meeting.

I share an address with another holder of ADSs, and we received only one paper copy of the proxy materials. How may I obtain an additional copy of the proxy materials?

SEC rules concerning the delivery of annual disclosure documents allow us or your broker to send a single set of our proxy materials to any household at which two or more of our ADS holders of record reside, if we or

10

your broker believe that the ADS holders of record are members of the same family. This practice, referred to as “householding,” benefits both you and us. It reduces the volume of duplicate information received at your household and helps to reduce our expenses. The rule applies to our annual reports, proxy statements and information statements. Once you receive notice from your broker or from us that communications to your address will be “householded,” the practice will continue until you are otherwise notified or until you revoke your consent to the practice. ADS holders who participate in householding will continue to have access to and utilize separate proxy voting instructions.

If a broker or other nominee holds your ADSs and (1) your household received a single set of proxy materials this year, but you would prefer to receive your own copy or you do not wish to participate in householding and would like to receive your own set of our proxy materials in future years or (2) you share an address with another ADS holder and together both of you would like to receive only a single set of proxy materials, please contact the broker or other nominee directly and inform them of your request. Be sure to include your name, the name of your brokerage firm and your account number.

Can I receive Company shareholder communications by electronic delivery?

Most shareholders can elect to view or receive copies of future proxy materials over the Internet instead of receiving paper copies in the mail. You can choose this option and save us the cost of producing and mailing these documents by following the instructions provided on your proxy card or by following the instructions provided when you vote over the Internet.

Where can I find documents referenced in this proxy statement?

Corporate Governance

Board Independence

As required under the Nasdaq listing standards, a majority of the members of a listed company’s Board must qualify as “independent,” as affirmatively determined by the Board. The Board consults with our counsel to ensure that the Board’s determinations are consistent with relevant securities and other laws and regulations regarding the definition of “independent,” including those set forth in pertinent listing standards of Nasdaq, as in effect from time to time.

Consistent with these considerations, after review of all relevant identified transactions or relationships between each director, or any of his or her family members, and us, our senior management and our independent auditors, the Board has affirmatively determined all of our directors, other than Mr. Tassé, are independent directors within the meaning of the applicable Nasdaq listing standards. In accordance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, a director shall be considered independent if she/he does not have any relationship which, in the opinion of the board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In addition, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rules, to be considered independent, a director shall not be subject to any of the mandatory bars to independence set forth in Rule 5605(a) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules. However, pursuant to French law requirements, only Michel de Rosen, Daniele Guyot-Caparros, Timothy E. Morris, Adora Ndu, Julie O’Neill, Daniel B. Soland and Ravi M. Rao are considered to be “independent directors.” In making such determination, our Board of Directors considered the relationships that each non-employee director has with us and all other facts and circumstances our Board of Directors deemed relevant in determining the director’s independence, including the number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the director and his or her affiliated entities (if any).

Board Structure and Director Election

We currently have ten directors, half of whom are citizens or residents of the United States. Under French law and our by-laws, our Board of Directors must be composed of between three and 18 members. Within this limit, the number of directors is determined by our shareholders. Since January 1, 2017, the number of directors of each gender may not be less than 40%. Any appointment made in violation of this limit that is not remedied will be null and void. Directors are elected, re-elected and may be removed at a shareholders’ general meeting with a simple majority vote of our shareholders. Pursuant to our by-laws, the term of a director is three years, subject to a lesser period which could either be one or two year(s) for the purpose of a staggered board. In accordance with French law, our by-laws also provide that our directors may be removed with or without cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the votes of the shareholders present, represented by a proxy or voting by mail at the relevant ordinary shareholders’ meeting, and that any vacancy on our Board of Directors resulting from the death or resignation of a director, provided there are at least three directors remaining, may be filled by vote of a majority of our directors then in office provided that there has been no shareholders meeting since such death or resignation. Directors chosen or appointed to fill a vacancy shall be elected by the Board of Directors for the remaining duration of the current term of the replaced director. The appointment must then be ratified at the next shareholders’ general meeting. In the event the Board of Directors would be composed of less than three directors as a result of a vacancy, the remaining directors shall immediately convene a shareholders’ general meeting to elect one or several new directors so there are at least three directors serving on the Board of Directors, in accordance with French law.

We believe that the structure of our Board of Directors and its committees provides strong overall governance of our Company. The Chairman of our Board of Directors monitors the content, quality and timeliness of information sent to our Board of Directors and is available for consultation with our Board of Directors regarding the oversight of our business affairs. Mr. de Rosen has served as Chairman of the Board of Directors since March 4, 2019. He is an independent director under the listing standards of Nasdaq. Our Board of Directors believes that, given his perspective and experience in matters of the board and his ability to liaison between our non-independent directors and our independent directors, Mr. de Rosen’s service as our chairman is appropriate and is in the best interests of our Board of Directors, our Company and our shareholders.

Board Meetings and Committees

During our fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, the Board of Directors held 13 meetings (including regularly scheduled and special meetings), and each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of our Board of Directors held during the period for which he or she has been a director and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of our Board of Directors on which he or she served during the periods that he or she served as required under the charter of our Board of Directors.

We encourage, but do not require, members of our Board of Directors to attend our Annual General Meetings of shareholders. All of our directors attended the General Meeting of May 12, 2022.

Our Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating Committee. The composition and functioning of all of our committees complies with all applicable requirements of the French Commercial Code, the Exchange Act, and Nasdaq and SEC rules and regulations. In accordance with French law, committees of our Board of Directors only have an advisory role on matters requiring approval of the Board of Directors under French law and can only make recommendations to our Board of Directors on such matters. As a result, decisions are made by our Board of Directors taking into account non-binding recommendations of the relevant board committee. The composition and responsibilities of each of the committees of our Board of Directors is described below. Members will serve on these committees until their resignation or until as otherwise determined by our Board of Directors.

Role of the Board in Risk Oversight

Our Board of Directors is primarily responsible for the oversight of our risk management activities and has delegated to the Audit Committee the responsibility to assist our board in this task. While our board oversees our risk management, our management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes, including, without limitation, management of cybersecurity, data privacy, and information technology risks and procedures. Our Board of Directors expects our management to consider risk and risk management in each business decision, to proactively develop and monitor risk management strategies and processes for day-to-day activities and to effectively implement risk management strategies adopted by the Board of Directors. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks we face.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee, a Nominating Committee and a Compensation Committee, each of which operate pursuant to a written charter adopted by our Board of Directors that satisfies the applicable rules and regulation of the SEC and the listing standards of Nasdaq. The composition and functioning of all of our committees complies with all applicable requirements of the French Commercial Code, the Exchange Act, Nasdaq, and SEC rules and regulations.

Subject to the following paragraph concerning the Audit Committee, in accordance with French law, committees of our Board of Directors only have an advisory role on matters requiring approval of the Board of Directors under French law and can only make recommendations to our Board of Directors on such matters. As a result, decisions are made by our Board of Directors taking into account non-binding recommendations of the relevant board committee.

Below is a description of each committee of the Board.

Audit Committee. In accordance with French law, the Audit Committee has the following responsibilities: (i) it monitors the process of preparing the financial information and, where appropriate, makes recommendations to ensure its integrity, (ii) it monitors the efficiency of risk management and internal control systems, as well as that of internal audits if applicable, with regard to the preparation and processing of financial and accounting information, without prejudice to its independence, (iii) it issues a recommendation on the statutory auditors proposed for appointment by the general meeting, (iv) it monitors implementation by the statutory auditors of their mission, (v) it ensures that the statutory auditors comply with independence criteria, (vi) it approves the provision of services other than the auditing of accounts referred to in Article L.822-11-2 of the French Commercial Code, (vii) it reports regularly to the Board on the performance of its tasks. It also reports on the outcome of the accounts auditing task, how this task contributed to the integrity of the financial information, and the role it played in that process. It immediately informs the Board about any difficulties encountered.

The Audit Committee is composed entirely of independent directors in accordance with applicable law, including the Code and Nasdaq Listing Rules. All members of the Audit Committee shall be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including the Company’s balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement. In addition, at least one (1) of the directors who is independent must qualify as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and shall be a member of the Audit Committee as described below. A person who satisfies the definition of “audit committee financial expert” will also be presumed to have financial sophistication. In order to comply with article L.823-19 of the French Commercial Code, such person shall also have an outstanding knowledge in the field of finance, accounting and audit of accounts (compétences particulières en matière financière, comptable ou de contrôle des comptes).

Mr. Morris, Ms. Ndu, and Ms. Guyot-Caparros currently serve on our Audit Committee. Mr. Morris is the chairperson of our Audit Committee since October 3, 2022. Our board has determined that each of Mr. Morris, Ms. Ndu, and Ms. Guyot-Caparros is independent within the meaning of the applicable listing rules and the independence requirements contemplated by Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Our Board of Directors has further determined that Mr. Morris is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by SEC rules and regulations and that Mr. Morris qualifies as financially sophisticated under the applicable exchange listing rules.

In addition to the functions referred to above, our Board of Directors entrusts the following specific missions to our Audit Committee:

Our Audit Committee operates under a written charter that satisfies the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing standards of Nasdaq. A copy of the charter of our Audit Committee is available in the Corporate Governance section of our website at https://www.dbv-technologies.com. During our fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, our Audit Committee held 6 meetings.

Nasdaq rules require that the Audit Committee have the specific Audit Committee responsibilities and authority necessary to comply with Rule 10A-3(b)(2), (3), (4) and (5) under the Exchange Act, which requires, among other things, that the Audit Committee have direct responsibility for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of our auditors.
