Elevate your CEO on earnings calls with video

Quarterly earnings calls may be routine for publicly-traded companies, but they represent one of the most strategic communications methods for influencing investor relations — specifically the analysts, investors, and journalists who attend the briefings. An earnings call is the ideal platform for a company to control its message and showcase its track record in execution, promote its forward-thinking strategy, and manage expectations around performance.

Set up your CEO for success

In particular, how an analyst perceives a CEO’s presentation can have an outsized impact on how investors and the media evaluate a company. According to S&P Global Market Intelligence, shares of companies with CEOs who make liberal use of positive words when describing financials during earnings calls outperform other companies by as much as 9% per year (via CNBC). Clearly, how a CEO delivers the company messaging on an earnings call can pay huge dividends.

Challenges in preparing an earnings call

The timing between closing the books on a quarter and reporting on performance is often tight, making it difficult to create a polished, professional earnings call that elevates your company and positively impacts investors.

There’s a lot that goes into it such as:

• Creating the story and integrating content from multiple sources and types, such as charts from Finance or video clips from Marketing
• Ensuring consistent branding across all components
• Coordinating with your C-suite team to prepare and present, whether they are in the office, traveling, or working from remote locations
• Managing all the technology required to ensure the highest audio and visual presentation quality
• Making sure everyone stays on point during the call
• Capturing the call and making it easily available on demand

All the moving parts must come together smoothly, or you risk missing the mark and leaving a negative impression on the people with the most influence on your company’s stock performance.
