Tropicana Corporation Berhad Annual Report 2018

ANNUAL REPORT 2018 35 WHAT WE’VE GOVERNED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OTHER INFORMATION INVESTOR RELATIONS Strengthening Investor Confidence In a market with rapidly evolving dynamics, we understand that we are moving into an era with an increasing focus on accountability, transparency and integrity. While FY2018 proved to be a challenging year in the overall market environment, we continued to focus our efforts on building a sustainable business growth to realise long-term shareholder value. Guided by the Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance, the Investor Relations (“IR”) team at Tropicana developed a strategic IR programme to keep our loyal shareholders, the financial and investing community as well as other stakeholders abreast of our strategies, values, best practices, performance, key activities and future plans through open and transparent communication. We do this on a continuous basis to strengthen shareholders and stakeholders understanding and confidence in our business strategies and growth. Throughout 2018, we engaged with our shareholders, stakeholders, fund managers and financial analysts via multiple platforms, namely briefings, one-on-one meetings, investor-related events and media presentations. We listened to their feedback, expectations and held constructive dialogues to help them understand our short as well as long-term strategies. During the year under review, Tropicana held two face-to-face 2018 Analysts Group Meetings for the second quarter and fourth quarter results performance on 6 September 2018 and 19 March 2019, respectively. The Annual General Meeting was held on 30 May 2018 where it served as a platform to share updates as well as to address any concerns fromour shareholders. Cognisant of the changing media landscape and the proliferation of information, Tropicana also organised site visits to help analysts better understand the Group’s overall business goals, industry trends, products as well as giving them the opportunity to be able to make a more comprehensive assessment of our overall performance. We believe that these efforts are important as it demonstrates our ability to honour our responsibilities as well as promote accountability, transparency and integrity. The Tropicana IR team also maintains the Group’s IR page on the corporate website for easy data dissemination as well as an avenue to engage with shareholders and stakeholders on a regular basis. Through this site, the general public would have easy access to the Group’s financial results, annual reports, Bursa Malaysia announcements and much more. Additionally, we work closely with the relevant departments to issue media statements as well as engage with the media on important updates.
