We strive to provide useful and frequent disclosure to our shareholders.
Massmart reports formally to shareholders twice a year (in March and August) when its full-year and half-year results, together with a thorough Executive overview, are announced and issued to shareholders and the media. On both occasions the CEO, CFO and certain Group Executives give presentations to institutional investors, analysts and the media.
Early in January and July, shortly after the conclusion of the full-year and half-year trading periods, on release of the Integrated Annual Report and at the Group’s AGM in May, Massmart releases sales updates reporting on the Group’s year-to-date sales performance. In addition, annually in May (If circumstances allow), the CEO and CFO host a day-long visit by institutional analysts and investors to Massmart stores. A sales update is released along with this visit.
During the year, apart from closed periods, the CEO and CFO together meet regularly with institutional shareholders and, in addition, are available for meetings or conference calls with analysts and any existing or prospective Massmart shareholder.
