Change in silent period
As of 1 October 2011, Amer Sports will start its ‘silent period’ immediately after the closing of the accounts. During the silent period, Amer Sports’ top management and Investor Relations team do not meet with the representatives of capital markets or financial media, nor comment on issues related to the company’s financial situation or general outlook.
If an event occurring during the silent period requires immediate disclosure, Amer Sports will disclose the information without delay in compliance with disclosure rules and may also comment on the event concerned.
The silent period will start from closing of the accounts until the quarterly results are made public. The start of each silent period commences on: 1 January, 1 April, 1 July and 1 October. Each silent period ends when the results of each respective quarter are made public.
On 1 October 2011 Amer Sports will also change its Insider Policy, so that the closed window rule for insiders comes into force and ends at the same time as the silent period. Insiders are not allowed to trade in the company’s securities during the closed window period.
Amer Sports previously observed a 21 day silent period before releasing each set of financial results.
