In dialogue with our investors
By providing comprehensive fi nancial information throughout the year,
we ensure maximum transparency.
Investor relations
We maintain a continuous and open dialogue with our investors. We provide our shareholders
with up-to-the-minute comprehensive fi nancial information not only at the Annual Sharehold-
ers’ Meeting but also in quarterly, semiannual and annual reports, and in ad hoc press releases.
Our Investor Relations Team organizes discussions and conferences in which investors and fi -
nancial analysts can discuss current Company-related issues with our management. These dis-
cussions and conferences, which are transmitted live on our redesigned and expanded Internet
site, are accessible to the general public. Our institutional investors are also kept up-to-date on
Company developments through several hundred individual presentations a year, some of them
at roadshows in and outside Germany. Sustainability-oriented investors have shown an increas-
ing interest in the Company’s strategy in areas like energy effi ciency and environmental protec-
tion. In fi scal 2007, Siemens was listed for the eighth time in a row on the SAM Dow Jones Sus-
tainability Index. In a number of major surveys, investors and analysts again ranked our capital
market communications very highly. For the fi fth year in a row, the Siemens Investor Relations
Team was awarded fi rst place in the capital goods sector of the Thomson Extel Awards.
