What are the benefits of a DR program? 10 What are the benefits of a DR program? DRs Allow Issuers to: DRs Allow Investors to: • Invest in more than 2,000 sponsored depositary receipts from 76 countries • Access deep international capital markets and flexible funding options • Increase share valuation and liquidity • Diversify and broaden their shareholder base • Prepare for future acquisitions • Express the international commitment of their company • Receive quotes and dividends in U.S. dollars • Clear and settle according to global standards • Overcome foreign investment restrictions • Access improved information flow in English • Heighten the profile for their products and services 11 What are the benefits of a DR program? • Positive impact in the Company’s valuation “DR OTC programs increase shareholder value by an average of 10% over the first year”, (Oxford Metrica Study of 767 DR programmes over 1980-2003) “Cross-listed firms have better information environments, which are associated with higher valuations”, (Mark H. Lang, Karl V. Lins, Daruis Miller Study) “Where DRs cease trading completely issuers and investors lose out not only on the deliberately reduced financial disclosure but also in terms of investor access, visibility, investor relations and consequently in reduced liquidity, (Oxford Metrica Study 2003) • Enhance the overall trading and liquidity in the Company in the home market and overall. “Over-the-Counter (OTC) DRs improve liquidity in home market by 23% on average, Oxford Merica Study 2003). • Increase shareholder diversity. 49% of US Funds are available to buy ADRs, increasing by 88% the potential investor audience in the company (Federal Reserve Bank). 12 What are the benefits of a DR program? • Greater access to International investors (including domestic and retail) who may be currently unable to invest in the Company due to restrictions limiting their ability to invest in offshore securities. Many funds are not permitted to invest in non-US securities unless they are in DR form such as Dean Witter- Balanced Growth Fund, Smith Barney – Large Capitalization Growth Fund, etc.. Many funds use DRs to increase international exposure within the portfolio beyond fund or charter limit such as Van Kampen-Mid-Cap Growth Fund, AIM Family of Funds – Large Cap Value Fund, etc.. • Increase investment activity in the Company from Int’l Investors. Large Int’l institutional investors, depending on the portfolio, fund or pension they manage, use shares or DRs. Brandes holds 54.9% of their portfolio in DRs, Capital Int’l holds 54% of their portfolio in DRs, Lazard holds 30.8% in DR form, etc.. Wrap Accounts and Hedge funds, two of the fastest growing areas of investment, use actively DRs in their portfolios. • Expand International investor base. 49.5% of US Institutional Investors invest in ADRs only, compared to 5% that invest only in foreign ordinary shares and 18.9% that invest both in shares and ADRs. (Georgeson & Company Study) 13 What are the benefits of a DR program? • Enhance the visibility of the Company in the International public market and awareness among International brokers, analysts and investors, which should benefit the Company’s cost of capital. Through promotional efforts made by the depositary bank such as tombstone, announcements, broker notification, press release, access to regional broker networks, research magazine, Bloomberg Forum, NYSSA presentations and other secondary market support efforts. • Greater analyst & press coverage. There is significant increase in analyst coverage (128%), Wall Street Journal articles (32%), FT articles (78%) with ADR programs, (International Cross Listing and Visibility, Baker, Nufsinger and Weaver). The increase coverage by the Int’l financial press on companies with DR programs benefits the company’s visibility among US investors and the overall image of the company in the US market . # Of additional instances with ADR program 6.20 1.64 6.56 6.08 % Increase 128% 32% 78% 37% Effect # Of new analysts providing research coverage # Of additional Wall Street Journal articles per year # Of additional FT articles per year # Of additional domestic news articles per year 14 What are the benefits of a DR program? • Buy-side analysts recommend investing in international stocks to their client base. An DR program facilitates that these recommendations are translated into investments from international investors. • Increase the dissemination and availability of financial information on the Company in the international markets. The depositary bank provides several channels for distributing information to investors, such as 24-hour call center, corporate action email program, internet access account, tax reporting, etc. • Depositary Receipts represent an important vehicle for International investors when investing internationally (e.g. in the USA, where there is a total reported investment in DRs of $780 billion, or 27% of the total US international investment 15 What are the benefits of a DR program? • Reduced volatility The performance during the last bear markets of European companies with DR programs compared to those without ADR programs indicates a reduced volatility in the share price for those companies with DR programs. • A DR provides other international brokers with a security that they could trade, increasing the probability of interest in trading and or issuing research on the Company. • Foster greater name recognition and understanding of the Company in the international markets. 16 Section III.
