1 How to Craft an Effective Perception Study Gene Rubin Senior Vice President Rivel Research Group March 4, 2010
2 Rivel Research Group Established in 1991 One core competency marketing research A unique specialty investment community research Thousands of interviews with investment professionals every year Clients include Global Fortune 500 companies (including BP, McDonalds, BG, PepsiCo, AT&T, MasterCard, AXA, Altria, Vale)
3 Investor Perception Study Necessities 1. Good list investors should be familiar with your company. 2. Questionnaire to ensure that objectives are addressed. 3. Question order start with broad and end with specific. 4. Structure every respondent must be asked the same questions in the same order. 5. Qualitative feedback thought provoking questions needed to probe for insight. 6. Quantification results must be counted and cross tabulated in order to benchmark, measure and compare. 7. Objectivity protect against bias. 8. Anonymity protect identity for most candid results.
4 Key Elements of Effective Research A study should be able to: Measure the effectiveness of communications: Do they hear it? Right audience? Enough transparency? Analyze knowledge gaps (audience differences) Compare findings against peers Measure perceptions as they evolve Foster stronger relationships between the board, C-Suite and investor relations professionals
5 Poll Question #1 How well do you think your investors understand your company s investment proposition? Excellent Good Fair Poor
6 Investment Community Universe Buy-side Sell-Side Financial Media Debt Retail Internal Fringe Core
7 Subgroups Public Company Buy-Side Sample Region Stock Activity Fund Type Investment Style Ownership US Europe Asia Canada Recent Buyers Recent Sellers Mutual Fund Asset Management Hedge Fund Pension Fund Growth GARP Value Total Return Top Owners Secondary Owners Underweights Targets
8 Sample Creation The Most Important Step Total Core Fringe Total Interviews Sell-Side (net) Covers Does Not Cover Buy-Side (net) Top Owner Secondary Owner Target Met with Management Did not Meet Management Growth Value GARP
9 A Study Should Provide In-Depth Qualitative Feedback What are the Strengths of ABC Company? They have solid assets as well as a strong market share in a high growth market. The management team is very capable and did a great job turning the company around from the situation it was in three years ago. They re ahead of others in terms of new information technology and implementing process re-engineering. They re doing a good job in changing the way they perform routine administrative tasks in order to protect themselves against being exploited by vendors who traditionally have had better information systems and tend to charge too much or pay too little, whatever the case may be. ABC has done a good job of updating their systems in order to make sure their dealings with the suppliers and payers are fair. PM/Owner/US/Met Management Operational execution is probably their biggest strength. Relative to the industry, they do a fairly good job of managing the political exposure to which this industry is subject. The management team is viewed very favorably relative to other companies and maybe slightly above the average firm. They re decent, but very good on the operational side. PM/Owner/UK/Has Not Met Management Senior management is very accessible. I like the fact that I can get a hold of these guys and that they will call me back. They do a good job of being visible to Wall Street i.e., they present at a lot of conferences and are also accessible at their headquarters. I appreciated being able to go down there and spend a day with different corporate managers within the company. Furthermore, they ve done a good job of actually running the company. BSA/Owner/US/Has Met Management They re going from a very bad time to a better time. They are getting much more focused and back to the strategy they had before times were difficult. Essentially, new management came in, changed the strategy and brought on the bad times. Then, the old management came back and fixed things. Other strengths are ABC s size, which leads to power in many different markets, and the fact that they are concentrated in many markets. BSA/Former Owner/UK/Has Met Management
