The Morane-Saulnier firm was established 10 Oct 1911 by brothers Léon Morane and Robert Morane and Raymond Saulnier was successor to Société Anonyme des Aéroplanes Morane-Borel-Saulnier.
Early designs were primarily braced monoplanes but by 1915 was also building a parasol monoplane trainer and many parasol monoplanes and biplanes, including reconnaissance aircraft, followed during WW1. From 1920, concentrated on radial-engined parasol-wing fighters and trainers. The company survived the late 1930s nationalization of the French aviation industry and by the time it filed for bankruptcy in November 1962, its output had exceeded 140 different types and several thousand of its monoplanes and biplanes had been built. In January 1963, control passed to Éstablissements Henri Potez which reorganized the company as Société d'Exploitation des Établissements Morane-Saulnier.
(Yes, this was specifically a "Société anonyme", indeed, with the designation most explicated within Patent DE-1913-330649.)
