Obligations Convertibles en actions nouvelles ou existantes

I found this doing a google search. It appears to be a type of convertible bond, but with my limited financial experience I can't give you an exact translation.
Anyway, I hope this helps,

neutral Florence Bremond : I was on it yesterday I should have visited you but I don't think it's the right Oceane here.
