DELIVERING QUANTIFIABLE RESULTS

Nagle & Ferri takes a proactive approach to investor relations, with the single-minded purpose of increasing liquidity for our clients. Our programs are milestone driven and tailored to the individual business objectives of each public or private company we serve. Overall, our aim is to create a brand image that delivers investment growth.

For public companies, we concentrate on expanding the universe of sellside coverage and, in turn, generating buyside interest. Our initiatives are designed to optimize the performance of the stock, to maximize research coverage and market-maker sponsorship and to broaden the base of institutional shareholders.

We focus our investor relations efforts on raising the level of awareness about our clients because a higher profile will:

• Attract greater financial media and analyst coverage,
• Capture investor attention,
• Increase trading volume and liquidity,
• Improve price performance, and
• Assure a level of sponsorship that values the client as an attractive and sustainable growth stock.

Because we are laser-focused on achieving increased liquidity, we place an added emphasis on continually putting our clients in the position to market to Wall Street. As such, we work with them to hone their message and then systematically facilitate participation in investment banking conferences, one-on-one meetings with institutional investors and client-hosted analyst days. Additionally, the

collaborative manner in which we work with CEOs and CFOs enables us to serve as our clients’ eyes, ears and, as appropriate, voice to Wall Street. Nagle & Ferri provides a full suite of investor relations services, including:

• Sellside and buyside targeting
