At JSW, we hold the principle that transparency is simply credibility. Transparency – understood by us as: clarity, transparency, openness and equal access to information – is the absolute foundation for contacts with investors.
In order to uphold a desired image amongst JSW’s stakeholders as well as positive standards for communicating with capital market participants, JSW continued its existing efforts to provide reliable information in line with the highest standards for this area. Communication with the market in 2018 was done in two ways:
In 2018, the Parent regularly hosted results conferences during which Management Board members discussed financial results. The conferences were broadcast live in Polish and English.
JSW also hosted a number of meetings and press conferences. During numerous meetings with the Management Board, stakeholders were presented with the key objectives of the 2018-2030 strategy, current achievements, on-going investment and development plans, along with detailed discussions of the Group’s current financial situation and conditions as well as perspectives for the mining industry.
JSW was also an active participant of over a dozen meetings and conferences with investors in both Poland and abroad. As part of our communications with the financial market, JSW organised a visit to its headquarters for brokerage firm analysts and fund managers, combined with visits to mines and coking plants, thanks to which participants were able to get to know the entire production process, from mining, through to storage, transport and processing of coal and production of coke.
A diligent approach to compliance with the legally-mandated information obligations as well as activities intended to maintain high standards for communications and business transparency were acknowledged by the market. JSW entered the prestigious RESPECT Index for socially responsible companies observing management principles related to corporate governance and investor relations, was awarded in the second edition of the „Transparent Company 2017” ranking, in the WIG20 category, which is organised by the daily „Parkiet” in cooperation with the Institute of Accountancy and Taxes, as well as placed third in the main category of the competition „The Best Annual Report 2017,” which promotes annual reports with the highest useful value for shareholders and investors and is organised by the Institute of Accountancy and Taxes.
