ValueReporting™

Non-financial reporting – a key element of future corporate reporting

The future of corporate reporting is all about transparency. Adequate information – not only on financials but also on the company's strategy, its market and its value creating activities – is important to create a coherent and complete medium-term picture of the business, against which short-term financial performance can be explained. Non-financial value drivers are leading indicators of future financial success. Providing adequate information on these drivers will not only help solve problems of inaccurate stock price valuations, but will also reduce volatility because it lowers investors' risk by allowing them a better understanding of your company and its prospects.

ValueReporting™ – the PwC solution

Based on extensive research and best thinking about how companies can improve their corporate communications, PwC has developed the ValueReporting™ Framework, a comprehensive approach for measuring and managing corporate performance and structuring communications about this performance. ValueReporting™ is a real working model, and the framework enables you to communicate value in a language that investors understand.

We can help you answer the following questions:

1. Do you know what information investors need to value your company?
2. How well does your company communicate its value to investors?
3. Does management have the right information at the right time to build value?
