The Annual Report

 

  • An annual report is a corporate document disseminated to shareholders that spells out the company's financial condition and operations over the previous year.
  • It was not until legislation was enacted after the stock market crash of 1929 that the annual report became a regular component of corporate financial reporting.
  • Registered mutual funds must also distribute a full annual report to their shareholders each year.

 

Typically, an annual report will contain the following sections:

  • General corporate information
  • Operating and financial highlights
  • Letter to the shareholders from the CEO
  • Narrative text, graphics, and photos
  • Management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A)
  • Financial statements, including the balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement
  • Notes to the financial statements
  • Auditor's report
  • Summary of financial data
  • Accounting policies

Have you ever been given a brochure? If so, where it happened and why.   How to write a brochure for your business   Despite the prominence of digital marketing, print collateral still has an important role to play in a balanced marketing strategy.

What is a comma  (,) ?    It is a punctuation mark that indicates a smaller break than a period. Some writers think of a comma as a soft pause—a punctuation mark that separates words, clauses, or ideas within a sentence.   When do we use comma?   1.- When joining two independent clauses.   We were out of milk, so I went to the store.   Or, you can simply write the two independent clauses as separate sentences.   We were out of milk. I went to the store.   2-  After an introductory phrase   Participial phrases: Grabbing her umbrella, Kate raced out of the house.   Adverbial phrases: Unfortunately for me, I can’t speak Italian.   3.- With interrupters or parenthetical elements   The weather, I was happy to see, was beginning to clear.
