We are committed to helping you maintain and strengthen trust with your stakeholders. That’s the only way to earn credibility over the long-term.
Communications should reflect values and build trust
Clear, consistent and coordinated communications that are tailored to your audiences are key. Fair valuation of securities, the ability to attract and retain top talent, effective marketing to customers, and relationships with partners and the community depend on it. Most importantly, your communications strategy must reflect your values and support your long-term business strategy.
The IR function plays an important and meaningful role
An investor relations program should be focused on cultivating an investor base that is aligned with your company’s long-term value proposition. An aligned shareholder base enables your management team to focus on executing your company’s long-term strategy.
Valuation should be viewed in perspective
Your stock price at any point in time should be viewed in perspective with relevant market factors (most of which are out of your control). This starts with identifying the factors impacting valuation and isolating which are company specific and within management’s control, then determining how these factors will influence decision making.
It all takes focus – and it’s hard to do alone
Today’s markets are complex, IRO roles have expanded, investors and boards demand more and it’s hard to do everything yourself. With Arbor, you have a partner committed to your success, who will be by your side through challenges and triumphs – and most importantly, will help you focus on what matters most.
A DIFFERENTIATED APPROACH TO IR
We believe that driving better outcomes requires the combination of technology and analytical expertise. The core of this vision, what we call IR 2.0, is rooted in data intelligence.
