THE SCHEDULE 13D

This Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D (“Amendment No. 2”) supplements the information set forth in the Schedule 13D filed on behalf of (i) Praesidium Investment Management Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, (ii) Kevin Oram and (iii) Peter Uddo, with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 20, 2019 (the “Schedule 13D”) and Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D (“Amendment No. 1”) on June 8, 2020, relating to the Ordinary Shares, nominal value €0.08 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), of Talend S.A., a company organized under the laws of France (the “Issuer”), and to American Depositary Shares of the Issuer (“ADS” and together with the Ordinary Shares, the “Shares”), each of which represents one Ordinary Share. All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D. Information given in response to each item shall be deemed incorporated by reference in all other items, as applicable.

Item 2.

Identity and Background.

Item 2(a) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

This statement is filed by: (i) Praesidium Investment Management Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Praesidium”), (ii) Kevin Oram and (iii) Peter Uddo (together with Praesidium and Mr. Oram, the “Reporting Persons”).

Praesidium, in its capacity as investment manager to certain managed accounts and investment fund vehicles on behalf of investment advisory clients (collectively, the “Accounts”), has sole power to vote 1,417,619 of the Shares held in the Accounts and to dispose of 1,532,121 of the Shares held in the Accounts. As the managing members of Praesidium, each of Kevin Oram and Peter Uddo may be deemed to control Praesidium.

Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

The net investment costs (including commissions, if any) of the Shares directly owned by the Accounts is approximately $42.32 per share. The source of these funds for the Accounts was their working capital.

Purchases of some securities for certain Accounts were effected through margin accounts maintained with brokers, which may extend margin credit as and when required to open or carry positions in the margin accounts, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and the brokers’ credit policies. In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts may be pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the accounts.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Items 5(a) – (c) and (e) of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

(a) - (b) The Reporting Persons beneficially own 1,532,121 Shares which represents approximately 4.8% of the Issuer’s outstanding Shares. The percentage of beneficial ownership of the Reporting Persons, as reported in this Schedule 13D, was calculated by dividing (i) the total number of Shares beneficially owned by each Reporting Person as of March 11, 2021, as set forth in this Schedule 13D, by (ii) the 32,244,017 Shares outstanding as of February 19, 2021 according to the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 1, 2021.

Praesidium, in its capacity as investment manager to the Accounts, has sole power to vote 1,417,619 Shares and the power to dispose of 1,532,121 Shares held in the Accounts. As the managing members of Praesidium, each of Kevin Oram and Peter Uddo may be deemed to beneficially own the Shares held in the Accounts.

(c) Transactions in the Issuer’s securities by the Reporting Persons during the last 60 days are listed in Annex A attached hereto.

(e) As of March 11, 2021, the Reporting Persons ceased to beneficially own more than 5% of the outstanding Shares.
