Arbor Advisory Group was initially engaged to manage our IR program after the departure of our internal executive. At the time, we were in the process of splitting the company into two separate publicly-traded companies via a spin-off transaction. The Arbor team managed our day-to-day IR program, built an IR function for the second company, helped us execute the spin-off, oversaw the production of separate Investor Day events on the same day (for each of the two companies), and ran IR for both companies on an outsourced basis after the spin. Arbor was a strong partner that did an exceptional job executing our Investor Day events and managing IR at the two companies.
