We help CFOs and investor relations professionals evaluate, track, and improve how their communications impact analyst ratings, investor perception and shareholder value.
You can't always control the financial performance, but you can control the way you communicate about it
No matter where the numbers fall, how can you be sure your communication will foster investors' trust in your organization, and confidence in its future? Quantified Communications can work with your investor relations team to measure your historical financial communication, identify its strengths and any areas that may cause confusion or concern for investors, and show you exactly how to communicate even more effectively with your investors.
Step 1
Financial Communication Diagnostic
We start by analyzing your previous financial communications to find out how effectively your leadership impacts your shareholder, investor, and analyst audiences, and how that communication compares to competitors and other companies in your industry.
Step 2
Feedback, Recommendations, and Improvement Plans
Building on our initial analytics, we identify your strengths and development opportunities, and we use that data to create an improvement plan – outlining exactly what you need to do to maximize the impact of your content and management team for all audiences.
Step 3
Ongoing Tracking
Our analysts and coaches continue to measure and support your improvement in future financial communications — from investor days, to shareholder letters, to earnings calls — on a regular basis, so you can see just how much you've improved over time, and where there's still room for development.

Recent thought leadership
Whether your company is a recent IPO or a sturdy fixture in the S&P 500, shareholders recognize that even healthy companies and strong leadership teams miss estimates. When this happens, the challenge for management is to effectively communicate the factors leading to the miss without losing analysts’ and investors’ trust.
Earlier this month, Jaime Dimon, JPMorgan Chase’s Chairman and CEO, concluded his remarks on the company’s earnings conference call with some surprising news for investors: going forward, he no longer plans to attend future earnings calls.
