Logo of The Magnum Ice Cream Company with a red stylized heart between the words 'ICE CREAM' and 'COMPANY', set against a textured background.

The Magnum Ice Cream Company demerger

The Magnum Ice Cream Company (TMICC) completed its separation from Unilever and began operating as a standalone company. TMICC was incorporated in the Netherlands, with its shares listed in Amsterdam, London, and New York.

Unilever retained a minority stake (<20%) in TMICC, to be sold down over time to support separation costs and capital flexibility. From Q4, Unilever will report Ice Cream as a discontinued operation and plans a share consolidation to ensure post-demerger comparability of share price, EPS, and DPS.

Shareholding

After TMICC demerger, two changes affected your shareholding:

  1. You were issued new TMICC shares
  2. Unilever completed a Share Consolidation

Use the calculators below to see your holdings.

1. TMICC shares calculator

Find out how many TMICC shares you received immediately following the demerger.

This calculator gives you an indication of the number of TMICC shares you received following the demerger. A ratio of one TMICC share for every five Unilever shares (or ADSs) was applied, and the tool automatically rounds down any fractions to the nearest whole share.

Important: This calculator is designed to provide an approximate indication of your post-demerger TMICC shareholding. It should not be relied upon as legal, tax, or financial advice and is not a substitute for consulting a qualified professional. The actual number of TMICC shares you received can be confirmed by your broker, nominee, or service provider through which you hold Unilever shares (or ADSs).

2. Unilever shares after Unilever Share Consolidation

Following the demerger, Unilever completed a share consolidation. Find out how many Unilever shares you owned immediately following the Unilever Share Consolidation.

(This assumes you did not sell any of your Unilever shares on Tuesday 9 December 2025.)

This calculator gives you an indication of the number of Unilever shares (or ADSs) you held immediately after the Unilever Share Consolidation. The same consolidation ratio was applied to all Unilever shares (and ADSs), and the tool automatically rounds down any fractions to the nearest whole share.

Important: This calculator is designed to provide an approximate indication of your post-consolidation Unilever shareholding. It should not be relied upon as legal, tax, or financial advice and is not a substitute for consulting a qualified professional. The actual number of consolidated shares you received can be confirmed by your broker, nominee, or service provider through which you hold Unilever shares (or ADSs).

Reducing the number of Unilever shares is intended to ensure that there will be comparability, so far as practicable, between Unilever’s share price and per share metrics (including earnings per share and dividends per share) before and after the Demerger (subject to interim market movements). The share consolidation is also designed to preserve (as far as reasonably possible) the value of awards granted under any Unilever Share Plan, thereby avoiding the need for any specific adjustments to the numbers of awards under those schemes.
