In terms of corporate communications and IR, the Company is fully aware of the responsibility as a public company to actively disclose information to investors and other concerned parties, in a timely and fair manner. As such, the Company established a Corporate Communications and IR Department responsible for the dissemination of company information. In addition to the routine disclosure of quarterly information, the said department discloses through its IR website such items as explanatory materials used at presentations of term-end results and business performances. Through such efforts, information is equally made available to investors without time lag, and concurrently, the Company is able to promote its business operations to a wider audience. The website, accessible around the clock, not only provides financial information, explanatory materials, and press releases, but also releases messages from the chairman as well as IR schedules. The Company also proactively discloses its business strategies and management information to financial analysts and institutional investors including domestic and overseas fund managers, through scheduled meetings. Additionally, going forward, the Company will be implementing measures to promote understanding of the Group's businesses among individual investors.
