THE COMPETITION
The annual report is a public company’s single most important act of financial disclosure and its major instrument for shareholder and investor communication. Oilweek and ATB Financial have partnered again this year to present the 2009 awards competition. For the past 33 years, this event has promoted excellence in Canadian oil and gas exploration, production, transportation, and service and supply.

In July, teams of volunteer judges made up of editors, graphic design professionals, and financial analysts begin to assess the reports. For each category of companies, two winners are chosen: one for outstanding Editorial/Graphic Design and one for outstanding Financial Statements & Analysis. The APEX Award honours the best overall annual report, taking both Editorial/Graphic Design and Financial Statements & Analysis into consideration.

In selecting winning annual report awards, the judges look for clarity and integrity; compliance with regulatory and professional standards; extraordinary effort to report performance; innovation in reporting and analytical methods; the quality of writing, editing, graphics, and printing; and usefulness to shareholders.
