Dennis BonGlobal Head Depositary Receipts Group

Welcome again to our client newsletter, which highlights global best practices for DR programs.

In this issue of the DR Advisor Quarterly, we feature Shinji Yamada, who is the North American investor relations representative for Japan-based Nidec. Founded in 1973, Nidec exemplifies precision engineering – it develops and manufacturers the tiny motors found in computer hard disk drives, iPods and many other electronic devices. In the client profile column of this newsletter, Shinji describes how Nidec’s IR team helped protect the company’s share price during the tragic floods that shut down its factories and those of its suppliers in Thailand late last year. In addition to other interesting insights, he explains how Nidec presents its approach to acquisitions, which investors can view as highly risky for a company to undertake.

For issuers, institutional salespeople are an important bridge to investors. In the IR Best Practices column of this edition of our newsletter, Ashley Aymonier of J.P. Morgan sheds light on how she generates investor interest in companies like yours. She also explains how a company can increase sellside coverage and how to incorporate into a roadshow important investors that are located in places inconvenient to travel to.

As a reminder, your J.P. Morgan relationship manager would be happy to introduce you to any number of our seasoned experts in IR, transactions and DR proxy, who can help your company implement and maintain best practices for an effective DR program.

Sincerely,

Welcome

Q. The backgrounds of investor relations officers vary. Please tell our readers about your career path prior to joining Nidec.

A. I spent 20 years in the foreign exchange area of a Japanese bank. During this time I worked in Tokyo, London and Los Angeles. While in L.A. I did some commercial banking work, which advanced my knowledge of financial statements. Many of the clients I dealt with in the foreign exchange market were fund managers and portfolio managers. This also helped prepare me to be an IRO, although I didn’t have any aspiration to be one, at the time.

Q. How did you make the transition to your current role after leaving the bank?

A. I underwent six months of training before I was stationed in New York four years ago. An integral part of the training was visiting Nidec’s factories to see firsthand how our products are manufactured and to learn about the technology behind them. My colleagues in production and sales also taught me a great deal about how our products are used by manufacturers. All of this helped me build a basic knowledge base. But while it is crucial to be knowledgeable about your own company and its products, you are also expected to have reasonably high level of knowledge of everything up and down the value chain and things being done in related industries. In order to credibly and effectively represent senior management in the investment community, an IRO needs to understand the final demand as well as situations in the upstream supply chain on which your company relies.

Q. Your knowledge of Nidec’s production operations and supply chain must have been critical when you were talking with investors about the floods that damaged your company’s factories and those of your suppliers in Thailand last year.

A. Indeed. Such knowledge is probably most important when a crisis strikes your company. An IRO needs to be able to rapidly respond to investor inquiries, especially during a crisis. Without sufficient knowledge about Nidec’s manufacturing processes and how our plants are supplied, I would not have been able to effectively brief investors and address their concerns. Because we began explaining the situation as soon as the flooding began and were then able to update investors and analysts frequently, we managed to minimize the impact on the price of Nidec’s shares and ADRs.

Q. Nidec is a global company and operates in very dynamic markets. It is also expanding into new ones. Please talk about how you maintain sufficient knowledge in this regard too.

A. Nidec is so dynamic that I must be continually updated regarding the myriad changes that take place inside and outside the company. I estimate that I spend some 50% of my time gathering the information I need to communicate with investors. Unfortunately I can’t sit in my office and wait for information to come to me. I must be proactive and reach out to various sources inside and outside of my company to obtain the information I need to do my work.

Q. Nidec recently announced another acquisition, of which there have been many during its history. Investors often treat acquisitions cautiously, as it can be difficult to integrate another company and ultimately earn a sufficient return on the capital used to make the acquisition. How do you allay such concerns?

A. This is also a matter of keeping investors focused on our long-term strategy and approach to business. Acquisitions are an integral part of Nidec’s strategy and ability to grow; you could say acquisitions are part of our DNA. Within our investor presentation is a slide with a matrix that shows where – from both a product and geographic perspective – Nidec currently operates and where it does not within the three growth drivers I mentioned before. The gaps in the quadrant that lie between the ‘x’ and ‘y’ axes of the matrix represent the industries within each region where we might make new or additional acquisitions in the future. In other words, the matrix is like a roadmap that helps investors understand in which industries and regions Nidec is likely to acquire companies, and that helps get them comfortable with our acquisition strategy. It means that investors should not be surprised, generally, when we announce an acquisition somewhere in the world.

Q. So although you never aspired to be an IRO, it sounds like you are glad you became one.

A. Absolutely. Investor relations is very interesting work and I am very proud to represent Nidec in the North American investment community.

Life outside the office

“In my free time I like to bring art into my life. I attend plays, ballet and the opera. I also play guitar, and I enjoy playing almost every kind of music.”

Q. How does an IRO secure the cooperation of colleagues who are very busy with their own work?

The first step is to help them understand why you need the information and how it is used. In addition to that, I recommend making information gathering a two-way street. By that I mean sharing with my colleagues what I learn from investors and analysts, who understand our industry well because they talk with our competitors as well as end-users and suppliers. Such information can be valuable to colleagues in their decision making. Colleagues also like to know how shareholders and the broader investment community view the company. So the IR team should be the eyes and ears of colleagues, not just for the CEO and CFO. I would like to add that I am very fortunate that Nidec’s senior management team makes time to talk with me and my IR colleagues about their strategy to grow the company and help us understand how they see the business and its markets. All of this is vital for us to credibly explain the company and its performance to investors, on behalf of management.

Q. Japanese companies have fallen out of favor with foreign investors as Japan’s economy has matured and economic growth there has slowed. How has Nidec’s IR team dealt with this challenge?

A. Our various investor communications make clear that, although Nidec is based in Japan, it is a global company. 90% of Nidec’s manufacturing is outside Japan and 90% of its revenue is generated abroad. This is partly by design; for example, costs and revenue that are not Yen-based create a natural foreign exchange hedge for our company. But our global footprint is also a function of being part of the IT industry, which is spread across the globe. The growth of emerging markets is very important with respect to Nidec’s growth, so we have been expanding further geographically, entering emerging markets, which offer new growth opportunities. Also, Nidec has recently been expanding beyond its traditional business – producing tiny motors for hard disk drives that go into computers – Into three new vertical segments: automotive, appliances and industrial equipment. Penetrating these markets will be a key long-term growth driver for our business.

Q. It must be something of a challenge to convince investors that Nidec can successfully develop and sell products for entirely new markets.

A. What Nidec brings to manufacturers of automobiles, appliances and industrial equipment is improved energy efficiency and product performance. Also, entering these new markets is a gradual broadening of our business. In our communications with investors, we always endeavor to keep them focused on Nidec’s long-term strategic direction and goals. We never want investors to lose sight of our long-term opportunities, during the inevitable short-term ups and downs, such as the floods in Thailand.

We believe that IR’s most important task is to make sure investors clearly understand Nidec’s long-term strategy. Doing so reduces volatility in our company’s stock price, which protects our shareholders and lowers risk for new investors who want to buy our stock or ADRs; spikes in a company’s stock price can be an obstacle to many investors. Also, we firmly believe that it is beneficial to focus on both long-term, value-oriented investors and short-term players. The former can become buyers in a declining market – provided they are well informed about Nidec’s long-term strategy beforehand – helping smooth a drop in our shares and ADRs. The latter help supply constant and sufficient trading liquidity.

Q. Some IRO’s feel that a broker’s institutional clients take precedent over them. Presumably you take the company into consideration too when arranging meetings with investors.

A. Absolutely. We are always mindful that a company is spending its own time and money to do an investor roadshow. In fact, we always ask the IR team if there are specific investors they’d prefer to meet with; this is also true for equity conferences that we organize. We endeavor to arrange roadshows that have the right mix of investors and that will have maximum impact, in terms of maintaining sufficient investor demand and diversifying the shareholder base by adding investors to it. Our aim is always to strike a balance between the objectives of a company and those of the investors who are our clients. If the company is pleased with a roadshow, it increases the likelihood we’ll be invited to organize future ones, which we consider a privilege.

Q. What are some of the other broker best practices for roadshows?

A. Beyond providing written profiles of the firms that senior management and the IRO will meet with, a salesperson should be able to give insights into what the investor thinks about their company and its market, and what the investor’s concerns are, if any. Before a meeting, I also tell the company what it’s like to meet with a certain portfolio manager or analyst. For example, I’ll let management and the IRO know if a certain person asks questions in an aggressive manner or will bluntly challenge management’s assumptions. Some PMs and analysts can be the opposite – very quiet – which a CEO, CFO or IRO might interpret as indifference, if they don’t know this in advance. At a minimum, a salesperson should give the different responsibilities and titles of the people who will be in the meeting room.

Q. What sets J.P. Morgan apart from other brokers, with regard to investor meetings?

A. Besides the high quality of our roadshows, J.P. Morgan has a global distribution platform that enables us to introduce companies to investors located in a wide variety of cities in the U.S. and in other capital markets throughout the world. We can also introduce them to investors that don’t have specific sector or geographic mandates for their portfolios. In other words, we have the ability to expose a company to a large universe of new investors across the globe.

In addition to our breadth, we have depth, in terms of the number of colleagues whose relationships I can leverage on behalf of a company. If I don’t have a relationship with a specific fund manager or analyst within a large institution, one of my colleagues either does or can identify the right person to contact. We dig right down to the individual fund levels at the big firms.

1 To learn more about the importance of understanding supply chains, please refer to the Client Profile article on page 4.

Q. What are some of the things an institutional salesperson like you does that are not readily apparent to the companies you take on roadshows?

A. As one can infer from my title, my core responsibility is to sell written research produced by J.P. Morgan’s analysts to institutional investors. Within each research report are great investment ideas. It’s my job to bring those ideas to the attention of the analysts and portfolio managers at investment firms that are J.P. Morgan clients, such as mutual funds, pension funds and hedge funds; my clients are U.S.-based institutions and the research I sell covers Latin American companies. In my conversations with buyside analysts and portfolio managers, I add color to a research report. For example, I highlight for them the additional insights provided by our research, such as the dynamics of a company’s industry – the distribution channels and price points for its products and services, for instance – and the dynamics of the supply chain. Such insights can help them in their investment decisions.

Q. As someone who regularly talks with the people who make investment decisions, what investor relations advice would you give a company that has gone public recently?

A. Within the first six months after the IPO and every six months thereafter, senior management and the investor relations officer (IRO) should meet with their new shareholders and with prospective investors. Without these meetings, shareholders can feel neglected or lose interest and sell their positions. Also, additional research coverage – from brokers that didn’t underwrite the IPO – Is often driven by investor demand. So the meetings you have with potential investors can result in increased demand and increase the likelihood of new sellside coverage. More coverage, by the way, means more salespeople like me talking with investors about your company and driving demand for its shares and DRs. It’s a virtual cycle that can benefit a company’s share price over time.

My other suggestion is if some of your shareholders are located outside major equity markets like New York, Boston and London, consider talking with investors via a telepresence system. Although most investors prefer in-person meetings with management and the IRO, they would rather hold a telepresence conference than not be able to talk with you at all because their offices are inconveniently located. Some large institutions, such as Principle Financial Group, for instance, are located in remote places like Iowa.
