SMARTRAC Policies

IR Policy

SMARTRAC shareholders can obtain full and timely information about SMARTRAC. We continually intend to improve relations with our shareholders. In addition to communication with its shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, SMARTRAC elaborates its financial results during conference calls, which are accessible for every shareholder. We publish annual and quarterly reports and press releases, and inform investors via our website. SMARTRAC is strict in its compliance with applicable rules and regulations on fair and non-selective disclosure and equal treatment of shareholders.

SMARTRAC together with several brokers organizes roadshows and participates in several broker conferences, announced in advance on our website. SMARTRAC posts presentations to analysts   and shareholders on SMARTRAC´s website. These meetings and presentations will not take place shortly before the publication of annual and quarterly financial information. While strictly complying with the rules and regulations on fair and non-selective disclosure and equal treatment of shareholders, in view of the number of meetings with analysts and presentations to analysts or investors, not all of these meetings and presentations are announced in advance by means of a press release and on our website or can be followed in real time. For this reason SMARTRAC cannot fully apply the literal text of recommendation IV.3.I. of the Dutch Corporate Governance Code.

Furthermore, SMARTRAC engages in bilateral communications with investors. These communications either take place at the initiative of the company or at the initiative of individual investors. During these communications the company is represented by one or more members of the board of management and/or its Investor Relations department. The subject matter of the bilateral communications ranges from singular queries from investors to more elaborate discussions on the business model or on the back of disclosures that SMARTRAC has made such as its annual and quarterly reports. Also here, SMARTRAC is strict in its compliance with applicable rules and regulations on fair and non-selective disclosure and equal treatment of shareholders.

SMARTRAC shall not, in advance, assess, comment upon or correct, other than factually, any analyst’s reports and valuations. No fee(s) will be paid by SMARTRAC to parties for the carrying-out of research for analysts’ reports or for the production or publication of analysts’ reports.

Shareholders are welcome to attend the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. They can vote according to their shares at the meeting personally, by instructing a proxy of their choice or one of the proxies provided for that purpose by SMARTRAC. All of the documentation related to the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders is posted in good time on SMARTRAC’s website.
