Dennis BonGlobal Head Depositary Receipts Group
I’m delighted that Susanne Schaffert, Novartis’ Global Head of Investor Relations, agreed to be interviewed for this edition of the DR Advisor Quarterly. Among other interesting insights, Susanne explains how to strike a balance between meeting the information needs of investors who are generalists and those who specialize in your sector.
Choosing which brokers to use for management roadshows can also be a balancing act. Each covering broker will vie for the opportunity to arrange meetings with their institutional clients, and investor relations officers are charged with selecting brokers that will make the best use of the time that senior management spends on non-deal roadshows during the year. In the IR Best Practices column of this newsletter, Ivan Peill, a member of the DR group’s Investor Relations Advisory team, explains what factors to consider when making this important decision.
I hope you find these articles and the newsletter’s other content insightful with regard to maintaining an effective DR program. As always, I encourage you to review the educational events section inside to learn about upcoming DR Group events in your area that might benefit you.
Sincerely,
Welcome

Q. The complex nature of the pharmaceutical sector makes investor communications challenging. Please tell our readers how you address this challenge.
A. The pharma sector is a highly specialized one. One of the main challenges is providing sufficient details for investors who specialize in our sector, while making sure that generalist investors can still grasp our overarching equity story and follow it as it changes over time. Specialists mostly want to understand the science behind our products. But providing too much information can make our story unclear to generalists – our key investment messages get lost in the details. Your investment story needs to be compelling, in order to attract a sufficient number of investors to your stock.
One of the ways we strike a balance between these two types of investors is to publish a press release that gives an overview of our performance during the reporting period and to also publish a report that provides supplementary information. To give you an idea of the detail we provide, the report for the first quarter of this year was 47 pages in length, while the press release was 10 pages long. The supplemental information includes, for example, updates on drug trials and regulatory approvals for each of our products, greater detail on each division’s performance and their key products, updates on legal proceedings, financial statements, and IFRS reconciliation.
Occasionally we also publish special reports that give in-depth perspectives on specific areas of our business that are key growth drivers. Our most recent one provides suggestions to better understand and model our Alcon business, a company that Novartis acquired last year.
Q. You referred to the scientific nature of your products. Presumably this requires you to be very technically literate, for your conversations with investors.
A. Yes, particularly for the specialist investors. My background isn’t a financial one. It’s more important that I know the science of our business. I have a PhD in chemistry. Also, I’ve been working at Novartis for 14 years. I started in sales and marketing and have managed business units within Novartis. Prior to my current role, I was responsible for running the oncology business in 27 European countries. Because of my operational experience, I’m also able to explain to investors and sellside analysts the various market dynamics that impact Novartis’ business. When my team and I meet with prospective investors, we usually spend half the time educating them about our markets, products and technologies, before we discuss our growth strategies. To a certain extent, this is also the case with regard to existing shareholders, given the dynamic nature of our business – what was true 6 months ago is often different today.

analysts are very focused on the details of a business, but you also need to articulate a compelling investment story that they and their salespeople can deliver to their institutional clients. Maintaining a good relationship with each analyst is also important, so we endeavor to make their lives easier by being responsive to their information requests and by taking the time to clearly explain our financial and operating results and the various aspects of our business.
Looking ahead, we have an eye on emerging equity markets, like China and the Middle East. China will eventually become a very important capital market. We regularly assess to what extent we should address China’s equity market. At the moment, we see that investors there are mostly focused on local companies. As soon as we see a meaningful portion of their capital invested in non-Chinese companies, we’ll spend more time there to attract new investors.
Life outside the office
“I enjoy modern art. I like to paint, which I find very relaxing. I paint abstracts, using oil- and acrylic-based paints. I’m also passionate about jazz. Miles Davis is my favorite jazz musician. I have all of his recordings”
Having worked at Novartis for some time, I have built up relationships with various internal people – there are 5 divisions that make up Novartis – on whom I rely for this information in order to report financial and operating results and communicate effectively with the investment community. These relationships are crucial for gathering information and understanding the dynamics of our business. My team must be knowledgeable when dealing with investors, in order to earn their trust in us and, ultimately, in our company.
Q. The senior management team and board of directors are also important internal relationships. How do you work with them?
A. This is a big part of my role as head of IR for Novartis. They place a great deal of trust in the IR department, because we are their representatives in the investment community. One of the important ways we maintain that trust is by keeping management and the board informed of what’s going on in the capital markets.
We believe it’s very important to keep them abreast of market dynamics. We inform them of changes in analyst opinions and our competitors’ performance, and also help them make sense of it all contextually. We also make sure that management and the board understand investors’ opinions of Novartis. In addition to sharing what we learn through our daily conversations with various investors and analysts, every six months we commission a perception study to get an in-depth understanding of the investment community’s views on Novartis’ performance, its investment proposition, and even the IR department’s performance. It’s important to listen to the market, to uncover both the bull and bear cases for our company. Like us, our CEO is very keen to understand investors’ views of Novartis – he’s very involved in investor relations in that regard.
Q. How is the IR department’s performance measured, other than the feedback you receive through perception studies?
A. I implemented a number of KPIs, when I assumed my role as head of IR. We have targets for each member, such as the number of investor meetings and conversations they hold. There are also group targets, in order to align efforts and help maintain a team spirit. But we’re not just concerned about numbers. We focus on targeting and meeting with the right investors, those who will most appreciate our equity story and remain long-term shareholders.
Q. The recent fiscal problems in Europe are yet another crisis affecting the financial markets. What is your approach to crises?
I view external crises as an opportunity to add even more value. During a crisis, investors and analysts are, in a way, desperate for information. If you are well informed, you can provide perspective and insights on how the crisis is impacting the markets in which your company operates. They may even use what you tell them to model your competitors’ financial performance. But it’s important to maintain a neutral stance when discussing your industry.
Q. What recent trends should IROs be mindful of and how is Novartis’ IR department responding to them?
A. The brokerage industry has been consolidating. At some firms, the sector analyst is covering far more companies than they had in the past. Because they are analyzing so many more of our competitors, we have to work even harder to make our company stand out from the crowd, to differentiate it from competing investment opportunities.

Tips
One of an IRO’s essential responsibilities is marketing the company to investors. Consider the following when selecting a broker to arrange non-deal roadshows:
• Reputation – IR peers at other companies are often willing to share the experiences they have had with individual brokers. Key attributes to consider are the number and quality of investor meetings and the smooth handling of logistics.
• Local distribution platform – Brokers with a presence in local geographies may have deeper relationships with local investors.
• Analyst influence – Generally, priority should be given to a broker whose relevant sector analyst is most influential among investors and have the highest independent ratings.
• Briefing information given management and the IRO – Information such as an investor’s meeting style, investment holdings and opinion of the company help company representatives prepare for investor meetings and can increase the likelihood of success.
• Market intelligence – Some brokers will let you know what market and sector activity their traders are seeing.
• Investor feedback3 – This feedback can be valuable and is delivered as an unattributed report and reviewed by management to understand investor sentiment toward the company and its sector, and is sometimes presented at the company’s Board of Directors meetings. Some brokers offer this service, and the quality of feedback can vary. So ask a broker to provide examples of the feedback (with names redacted) it has obtained in the past.
• Trading market share – This can indicate the strength of a broker’s relationships with the buy-side community and hence its ability to successfully market your company to the greatest number of investors.

Morgan’s DR Advisor Best Practices: The Value of Perception Studies.
Bringing companies and investors togetherA broker with a strong distribution platform can put your company’s senior management and investor relations officer in front of prospective institutional investors that can help optimize the company’s market valuation, reduce price volatility, and maintain ready access to capital over time. Additionally, brokers offer varying ancillary services that can benefit an issuer.
Like any good matchmaker, determining which investors a company should meet with requires knowledge of the institutional landscape, an understanding of broader market and sector themes, and insight into the company’s objectives. Accordingly, even companies with fully-resourced IR departments often utilize brokers to reach and attract investors.
At J.P. Morgan, a rigorous approach to targeting1 is the foundation for organizing non-deal roadshows and other investor events. A number of factors are considered in the process, chief among them key underweight and non-holding institutions, those invested in the company’s sector and geographic market, and the mix of long-only investors and hedge funds. The research analyst2, institutional sales team, and regional corporate finance teams are also consulted to ensure that a comprehensive effort is made on the company’s behalf.
Selecting the right brokers Issuers regularly receive requests from numerous brokers seeking the opportunity to offer management meetings to their institutional clients. With limitations on management time, not all brokers can be accommodated, of course. This presents a challenge with regard to maintaining research coverage by brokers, as management meetings are an integral part of the value proposition that brokers offer institutional investors. Hence, over time many issuers alternate brokers to organize investor meetings for them.

U.S. JOBS Act Relaxes Rules for IPOs, Private Placements and Disclosures by Issuers Classified as Emerging Growth CompaniesIntroductionOn April 5, 2012, the president of the United States signed into law the JOBS Act1 (H.R. 3606) (the ‘Act’). The Act is intended to improve access to the U.S. capital markets by exempting from certain securities laws qualified domestic and foreign private issuers that undertake an initial public offering (‘IPO’). An issuer classified by the Act as an emerging growth company (‘EGC’) is now subject to less stringent regulations for capital raising and post-IPO SEC2 reporting. The Act also provides a number of exemptions from securities laws that apply to investment banks, with regard to EGCs.
Definition of an Emerging Growth CompanyUnder the Act, an EGC is defined as a company that had less than US$1 billion in total annual gross revenue on the last day of its most recent fiscal year.3 An issuer will continue to be deemed an EGC until the earliest of: i) exceeding this revenue threshold; ii) the last day of the issuer’s fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of its first sale of common equity securities; iii) the date when the issuer has issued more than US$1 billion in non-convertible debt during the previous 3-year period; or iv) the date when the issuer is deemed a large accelerated filer.4
Exemptions for EGCs under the JOBS Act5
Exemptions for public offerings by EGCs
• EGCs are exempt from the provisions of Section 14 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 that require shareholder approval of executive compensation. Exemption has also been granted for certain disclosures of executive compensation.
• For an EGC’s offering registration statement (filed with the SEC), only two years of audited financial statements are required, versus the three years of statements required of other registrants.
• EGCs are exempt from any new or revised financial accounting standard until it is required of companies that are not issuers (private companies). If an EGC chooses to forgo this exemption and comply with a new accounting standard, it must adhere to certain requirements.
• Exemption from Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which requires an independent auditor’s attestation report on an EGC’s internal controls over financial reporting.
• EGCs are exempt from any rules adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board that require mandatory audit firm rotation or supplemental information (in an auditor’s report) about the audit and financial statements of an EGC.
• Broker-dealers can publish research reports about an EGC prior to or after it becoming a public company, or within any period of time prior to the expiration of any agreement between a broker-dealer and the EGC. Further, leading up to the IPO, securities analysts can simultaneously communicate with potential investors and the management of an EGC.
• An EGC or authorized representative (e.g., an investment bank) can – prior to or following the filing of a registration statement – communicate with potential investors that are qualified institutional buyers (QIBs)6 or with institutions that are accredited investors, in order to determine whether such investors would have an interest in a contemplated public offering.7
• Prior to a public filing, an EGC can confidentially submit to the SEC a draft registration statement for non-public review by SEC staff, provided the EGC’s initial confidential submission and any subsequent amendments are publicly filed no later than 21 days before the start of an investor roadshow.8
Exemptions for private offerings by EGCs
• General solicitation and advertising is permitted (pursuant to Rule 144A and Rule 506 of Regulation D) for the offer and sale of an EGC’s securities to QIBs or accredited investors.

1 Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act2 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission3 An issuer cannot qualify as an EGC if the first sale of common equity securities, pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, occurred on or before December 8, 2011.4 Generally defined as an SEC reporting company that has a worldwide market value of outstanding common equity held by non-affiliates of $700 million or more.5 With respect to certain exemptions, the Act states that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission could determine that additional requirements of EGCs would be necessary or appropriate in the public interest, after considering the protection of investors and whether such an action would promote efficiency, competition and capital formation. Accordingly, the SEC could also publish interpretive guidance with regard to certain exemptions.6 Generally defined as an institutional investor that manages over $100 million in assets7 To learn more about this subject, please refer to our December 31, 2009 DR Advisor Alert.8 To learn more about this subject, please refer to our December 12, 2011 DR Advisor Alert.
