Orange Group shares tumbled 3 percent. The telecom operator reported a 0.4 percent decline in third-quarter revenues, primarily due to the lower level of co-financing of the Fiber network received in France.
Aerospace company Thales rose over 1 percent after reaffirming full-year financial forecasts.
Faurecia fell about 1 percent. The car parts maker reported a drop in third-quarter sales of over 10 percent from a year ago as market conditions were impacted by adverse supply chain conditions, primarily semiconductors.
