This book was released on 2016-11-28 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Content Analysis of Annual Reports for Corporate Strategy and Risk The test of whether companies which take more risks then become less profitable uses content analysis of annual reports in the container industry. The attitude and behavior toward risk is captured from the set of 1976 annual reports from the twenty-six companies listed by Value Line at that time for this industry (one, Kerr Glass had been eliminated as it gave only 3 previous years of results). It was then possible to compare an annual report derived measure of risk (1976) with a subsequent five years (1977 1981) profit performance. As will be seen we had the advantage then of both a 5 year period before and a five year period after the risk measures. Four surrogate measures of risk were chosen, and these correspond roughly to managerial risk, legal risk, technological risk, and financial risk. The surrogates may be less than perfect approximations but they are treated as a composite which in part ameliorates their flaws. The work is offered as exploratory, and further improvements should be possible. The four surrogates for managerial, legal, technological, and financial risk are.

Download or read book Annual Reports written by John Stittle and published by Gower Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2003 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book concentrates on ensuring that the 'corporate message' is communicated to stakeholders in a way that maximises the value of the annual report and outlines how this might best be achieved. It explains the importance not only of the quantitative (accounting) information but also the qualitative content such as the chairman's statement, directors' report, operating and financial review, explanatory notes and so on. Particular recognition is given to the legal, stock exchange and professional accounting requirements as well as to the increasingly important but more discretionary areas of content such as social, environmental and ethical reporting issues. Crucially, the book discusses the importance of electronic communication now that legislation allows companies to deliver information over the internet.On a practical level, the book takes the reader through the procedures and processes in actually managing the preparation and production of the report. Both the practical and theoretical aspects of the book are placed in context by the use of relevant extracts taken from 'real-life' annual reports of major organisations. By using these authentic examples the book clearly highlights what works and what doesn't.Ensure that your company's annual reports conform to the highest standards of best practice. Don't waste the opportunity to deliver your message.
