Situation:
Alpha’s client was an energy Company and a recent IPO. Within a few months of becoming a public company, the Company had a large fire that caused a death at one of its facilities. As a newer company, the client had a series of crises mechanisms in place to handle the event locally, but not at the national level (i.e. the investor level).
Solution:
Alpha IR is an expert at IR crises, both large and small. Be it an executive transition, a strategic direction shift, a significant earnings miss, or any other significant IR crises, our team has seen it all. In this situation, our three team model put us in a unique position to immediately drive the internal board-level conversation and deliver a thoughtful external disclosure plan. Ultimately, three communication vehicles were used over the course of a month long investigation and Alpha IR helped communicate all of these proactively with the client’s core buy-side holders. The management team was able to maintain and even enhance its credibility by handling this situation with class and in open manner with investors.
