During a recent breakfast meeting in Stockholm, Q4 had the chance to connect with Investor Relations Officers (IROs) to hear their thoughts on current and future investor targeting strategies in the Swedish market and abroad.

Most public companies typically allow their covering analysts to participate in a Q&A session at the end of their earnings call. Analysts ask questions during these conversations to gain investor sector insights into the company’s strategic viewpoints, validate guidance assumptions, assess risks and opportunities, and ensure C-Suite transparency, ultimately aiding investors in making informed decisions and evaluating the company’s financial health and strategic direction.
On September 29th, in Copenhagen, Q4 hosted a breakfast meeting with investor relations professionals to discuss best practices when targeting investors.
