In the latest episode of IR Voice, we delve into what many define as a rite of passage for IROs: profit warnings.
In a conversation with Michaella Gallina, CFO at Wave and VP of IR, ESG and productivity at NYSE-listed H&R block, we investigate best practices for navigating the tricky waters of delivering tough news while maintaining investor confidence.
We consider what companies need to think about before issuing profit warnings, how they can mitigate the impact on their share price once the news has been delivered and which media are best for conveying an earnings miss.
Once the dust settles, how can a business restore the trust of investors that resisted a sell-off despite the bad news?
In this episode, you will hear:
- The role IR plays in a profit warning
- Top tips on what you need to do before, during and after the announcement
- How to strike the right balance between owning the issues and maintaining confidence in your company’s outlook
- How to restore shareholder trust and jump on the opportunity of attracting new investors.
