Company Presentation You will be required to make a PowerPoint Presentation summarizing the results of your financial decisions related to your assigned company’s financial performance over the course of the simulation. If you don’t feel comfortable using PowerPoint, your instructor will accept your presentation in the form of a term paper of at least ten pages in length, double-spaced, and submitted to Moodle. The company presentations should cover:
1. A slide describing your strategic vision for the company.
2. A slide that shows what performance targets for EPS, ROE, credit rating, and image rating you would set for each of the next two years (assuming the simulation were to continue). You may also want to indicate a stock price target as well.
3. A slide that sets forth your company’s competitive strategy in entry-level cameras in some detail and how that strategy has evolved over the years you have managed the company. You may need to have more than one slide here if your company’s strategy in entry-level cameras varies markedly from geographic region to geographic region.
4. A slide that sets forth your company’s competitive strategy in multi-featured cameras in some detail and how that strategy has evolved over the years. Again, more than one slide may be needed if your company’s strategy in multi-featured cameras varies markedly from one geographic region to another, such that your company is pursuing a meaningfully different competitive strategy in some regions versus others.
5. A slide describing your company’s production strategy (as concerns use of overtime, outsourcing, and expansion of in-house assembly capacity) and work force compensation/ training strategy
6. A slide describing your company’s finance strategy (as concerns dividends, use of debt versus equity, stock issues/repurchases, actions to achieve/maintain a strong credit rating, etc.) You should clearly describe your company’s dividend policy during the period you have managed the company. Here, you should also set forth what sort of dividend increases, if any, you would likely consider paying out in the next two upcoming years (given the EPS targets you have established).
7. A slide showing (1) those companies you consider to be your strongest/closest competitors in entry-level cameras as of the last year or two of the simulation and (2) those companies that are your strongest/closest competitors in the multi-featured segment of the marketplace.
8. One or more slides detailing the actions you would take to out-compete these close rivals in the next two years (assuming the simulation continues for several more years). Since the actions may differ as between entry-level and multi-featured cameras, you may well need 2 slides here.
9. A slide detailing the “lessons learned” about crafting a winning strategy and about what the managers of a company should or should not do for a company to be financially and competitively successful in a head-to-head battle against shrewdly-managed rival companies.
10. This presentation should consist of charts or graphs showing the following:
• Trends in the company’s annual total revenues
• Trends in the company’s annual earnings per share (EPS)
• Trends in the company’s annual return on equity investment (ROE)
• Trends in the company’s annual credit rating
• Trends in the company’s year-end stock price
• Trends in the company’s annual image rating
