Sked of Annual Stockholders Meeting of listed firms

James Ryan Jonas

The Annual Stockholders Meeting is an opportunity for a company’s shareholders to listen to their executives talk about the firm’s performance during the past year and plans and projects for the upcoming year. Also during this time, major issues related to the operations of the business are tackled and several high-level decisions that need stockholders’ approval are discussed.
Here’s a list of the Stockholders’ Meetings of some of publicly-listed Philippine firms. If you own shares of these firms before the ex-date (four days before the Record Date), you are eligible to participate in the Meeting. Normally, you just need to bring a Certification that you own shares of company to be able to attend the meeting. Contact your broker for details on how you can get this Certification.
I’m thinking of attending the Stockholders’ Meetings of two companies in which I own shares — for no other reason than to see what the fuss is all about. LOL.
Are you also attending? See you at the meeting!
