Companies seeking to have their shares traded on stock exchanges must comply with certain legal and institutional requirements arising from the raising of capital via the public markets. Among these requirements is the dissemination of basic information, both on a regular basis and as required by circumstances, with special emphasis on the following:

• Management Report;
• Financial Statements, with the independent auditor’s report;
• DFP - standardized financial statements;
• ITR - Quarterly Information;
• Reference Form - annual information;
• AUG/E(s): notices and minutes;
• Disclosure of material facts, news and notices to Shareholders.

All of the above information items are sent to the Comissão de Valores Mobiliários (CVM) and the stock exchange and are available for consultation by the public on this website and the companies’ websites. The financial statements, notices of meetings and the material facts are published in newspapers with wide circulation.

The ITR is the legal document in which the quarterly financial data and summary explanations are published. The ITR is a resource for monitoring the financial health of a company.

The Reference Form is a more detailed document that provides general information about the corporation, its financial accounting, marketing and history.

Material events or facts are corporate and business events that may affect the share price of the company and therefore the decision of investors to trade those securities or exercise rights inherent to them.

In addition to the publishing of legal information, within deadlines and through specific vehicles, companies must maintain an Investor Relations division to provide a channel of communication between the company and the investor.

The Investor Relations Office of a company plays the dual role of bringing information to investors, analysts and the market in general, and gathering their evaluations and perceptions regarding the company, seeking to identify needs and possible gaps in its communication process with the market. It is through this division and careful reading of the material made available on its website and through the CVM that investors can better understand the company in which, by buying shares, they become a partner.
