This Amendment relates to the Ordinary Shares, nominal value EUR0.10 per share (the "Ordinary Shares") of DBV Technologies S.A. (the "Issuer").

Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D. Information concerning the executive officers and directors of Bpifrance Participations, Bpifrance Investissement, CDC, EPIC and Bpifrance required to be disclosed in response to Item 2 and General Instruction C to Schedule 13D is provided in Exhibit 99.2 to this Amendment and incorporated herein by reference. None of the Reporting Persons, nor, to the best of their knowledge, any of the persons referred to in Exhibit 99.2 has, during the last five years, been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors). None of the Reporting Persons, nor, to the best of their knowledge, any of the persons referred to in Exhibit 99.2 has, during the last five years, been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, Federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws. Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows: On March 27, 2025, Bpifrance Participations entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, which is described in Item 4 below, to purchase securities from the Issuer. The transaction is expected to close on or around April 7, 2025. The funds to be used to purchase the securities will come from working capital. Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows: On March 27, 2025, the Issuer entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with certain accredited investors named therein (the "Investors"), including Bpifrance Participations, pursuant to which the Issuer agreed to issue and sell to the Investors in a private placement (the "Private Placement") (i) 34,090,004 Ordinary Shares with warrants (the "ABSAs") at a subscription price of EUR1.1136 per ABSA, and (ii) pre-funded warrants (the "Pre-Funded Warrants") to purchase an aggregate of 71,005,656 Ordinary Shares. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Bpifrance Participations agreed to purchase 3,746,732 ABSAs, which includes 3,746,732 Ordinary Shares and warrants to purchase 6,556,781 Ordinary Shares (the "ABSA Warrant Shares"), from the Issuer in the Private Placement. It did not purchase any Pre-Funded Warrants. Each ABSA consists of (i) one Ordinary Share to which are attached (ii) one warrant (the "ABSA Warrant") to subscribe initially for 1.75 Ordinary Shares. The Private Placement is anticipated to close on April 7, 2025. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and agreements by the Issuer and the Investors and customary conditions to closing. The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, the form of which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.3 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. The ABSA Warrants will be detached from the Ordinary Shares as soon as they are issued. The ABSA Warrants will entitle the holder, at its discretion, to subscribe for new Ordinary Shares of the Issuer. Subject to the conditions and limitations specifically provided in Terms and Conditions of the ABSA Warrants (the "ABSA Warrant Terms"), the ABSA Warrants will be exercisable, in whole or in part, from the date of issue until the earlier of (i) April 7, 2027 and (ii) 30 days following the VITESSE Positive Results, as such term is defined in the ABSA Warrant Terms. The exercise of one ABSA Warrant will give the right to subscribe to 1.75 ABSA Warrant Shares at a price of EUR1.5939 per ABSA Warrant. No fractional shares will be issuable upon the exercise of ABSA Warrants, provided that the number of shares to be delivered in respect of any exercise of one or more ABSA Warrants pursuant to any exercise notice will be rounded down to the nearest whole multiple of one share. The foregoing description of the ABSA Warrants does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the ABSA Warrant Terms, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 99.4 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. All of the Ordinary Shares that are held of record by the Reporting Persons as reported herein were acquired for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons retain the right to change their investment intent, from time to time to acquire additional Ordinary Shares or other securities of the Issuer, or to sell or otherwise dispose of all or part of the Ordinary Shares or other securities of the Issuer, if any, beneficially owned by them, in any manner permitted by law. The Reporting Persons may engage from time to time in ordinary course transactions with financial institutions with respect to the securities described herein. Except as set forth above, none of the Reporting Persons currently has any plans or proposals which would be related to or would result in any of the matters described in Items 4(a)-(j) of the Instructions to Schedule 13D. However, as part of the ongoing evaluation of investment and investment alternatives, the Reporting Persons may consider such matters and, subject to applicable law, may formulate a plan with respect to such matters, and, from time to time, may hold discussions with or make formal proposals to management or the board of directors of the Issuer or other third parties regarding such matters. Item 5(a) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows: Items 7 through 11 and 13 of each of the cover pages of this Amendment are incorporated herein by reference.

As of the date hereof, neither Bpifrance, Bpifrance Investissement, EPIC nor CDC holds any Ordinary Shares directly. Bpifrance Investissement may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the 226,133 Ordinary Shares held by Innobio, through its management of Innobio. Bpifrance may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 10,898,595 Ordinary Shares and warrants to purchase 6,556,781 Ordinary Shares, which collectively represent 12.2% of the Issuer's outstanding Ordinary Shares, indirectly through its sole ownership of Bpifrance Participations, which is the parent company of Bpifrance Investissement.

The percentage of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by each Reporting Person is based on 136,695,839 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer that are expected to be outstanding upon the closing of the Private Placement, based on information obtained from the Issuer on March 27, 2025, plus 6,556,781 Ordinary Shares underlying the ABSA Warrants. The amount of outstanding Ordinary Shares disclosed in the prior sentence is calculated under U.S. law, which requires treasury shares to be excluded from the calculation of outstanding shares. Under French law, treasury shares are required to be included in the calculation of outstanding shares.
