The Quick Quiz

Test your knowledge of annual reports.
(Questions for May 2004)

Come back each month to see how savvy you are about
annual reports to shareholders of publicly held companies.


 
  1.  Sarbanes-Oxley has caused annuals to soar out of sight—lengthwise, that is. True or false?  
 
  2.  Despite predictions to the contrary, the current, 2003 crop of reports is far and away more positive—that is, than a year ago at the same stage of your evaluation process. True or false?  
 
  3.  You talk about how popular your annual conference is, but the truth is, few attendees ever sign up again. True or false?  
 
  4.  Big companies like GE and IBM don't have much time for you; they've got their own cadre of experts in producing annuals, don't need the advice of outsiders. True or false?  
 
  5.  I believe some companies use a friendly (to you, that is) intermediary to put their annual in your hands, rather than chance simply sticking it in the mail. True or false? And if true, does that make any difference in your review?
