STMicroelectronics NV said Thursday that its supervisory board agreed to propose the reappointment of Chief Executive Jean-Marc Chery at its next annual general meeting.

The European chip maker said it would put forward to shareholders Mr. Chery's reappointment for a three-year mandate as the sole member of the managing board as well as president and chief executive of the group.

"The decision recognizes the importance of the continuity of ST's strategy, execution and value proposition under Mr. Chery's leadership," the company said in a statement.

The announcement comes after Mr. Chery confirmed he would be available for a reappointment.
