Investor Relations

“Managers and investors alike must understand that accounting numbers are the beginning, not the end, of business valuation.”

― Warren Buffett

It’s about your valuation. Full and fair valuation requires a clear, compelling investment case articulated consistently to the right audience at the right time.

Frame the opportunity. Evaluate the market. Know your peers. Audacia Strategies helps you develop and deliver your investment case, stay on top of shifting markets and maintain a “ready stance” for your interactions with Wall Street.

US institutional investors believe that Investor Relations (IR) accounts for a total variance of 30% in a company’s valuation – from a premium of 10% for “superb” IR to a discount of 20% for “poor” IR.
