Quality communication with the investment community is the
backbone in developing and maintaining strong long-term
relationships with our investors. Our investor relations team
ensures that company information and updated outlook
is available to investors and stakeholders through investor
conferences, physical meetings and conference calls.
FINANCIAL RESULTS AND CORPORATE LITERATURE
All announcements related to our financial results or corporate
developments are published in a timely manner across a wide
range of sources, including our corporate website (
.
com), the online portal of the SGX, SGXNET, and where relevant,
simultaneously distributed to the media. Our website also allows
both current and potential stakeholders to register for individual
email notifications, which are automatically disseminated upon
release of company announcements.
We also publish our annual report at the end of each financial
year by April of the following year. This is made available on
SGXNET as well as our website, and is also distributed to all
stakeholders in CD-Rom format, with printed copies available
upon request. All past corporate announcements and the Trust’s
published annual reports can be accessed through the “Investor
Centre” section of the HPH Trust corporate website (
.
hphtrust.com/investor_home.html).
Periodically, and particularly in conjunction with the release
of financial results, management organises physical briefings
for analysts, fund managers, equity stake representatives,
unitholders and various other investor groups. For those unable
to attend, management may also arrange teleconferences with
either small groups or individual investors. During these briefings
and teleconferences, management provides updates on the
business, as well as the outlook for the Trust and the industry
as a whole. The largest of these sessions is the Annual General
Meeting (“AGM”) held in Singapore each year following the
release of our full year results.

open dialogue with our global investor community, management

from around the world, in both individual dialogues and larger

RESEARCH COVERAGE
Senior management and the investor relations team have been
working closely with research houses since the Trust was listed
in 2011. This ensures that investors have easy and timely access
to research and analyst reports, which are key to keeping
them abreast of the Trust’s ongoing operational progress and
financial position.
There are currently approximately 10 research houses covering
the Trust, including Citi Research, Credit Suisse, DBS Vickers,
Deutsche Bank, HSBC, Jeeries, J.P. Morgan, Morgan Stanley,
OCBC Investment and UBS.
SITE VISITS
Management periodically conducts guided tours of the Trust’s
facilities to provide analysts and interested investors with an
in-depth look at our operations. We welcome all interested
parties to our ports, and regularly host VIPs, foreign and local
dignitaries, and ministry ocials on tours of our facilities.
In 2015, notable visitors included Mr. Hector Bautista, Managing
Director, Port Authority of Ensenada from Mexico; Mr. Naeem
