Roadcast Group Debuts Full Suite of Video-based Investor Relations Services at NIRI 2007
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., June 4, 2007 – Roadcast Group today unveiled its full suite of services at the National Investor Relations Institute (NIRI) 2007 trade show, the largest annual gathering of investor relations professionals in the U.S.
Roadcast Group comprises a suite of online and video-based investor relations and corporate communications tools and services, such as virtual management presentations, which combine video of management’s pitch to investors with animated graphics and easy-to-use online interactivity, as well as interactive annual reports, which package video and graphics with an online version of an annual report. The Roadcast products have been in beta stage for over a year, including several successful client launches.

“Through our extensive distribution network, on-demand features and ease-of-use for investors, Roadcast is an efficient and innovative tool for reaching individual and institutional investors, and marks a significant enhancement to traditional in-person roadshows and presentations,” said Bob Dentzman, co-founder and general manager of Roadcast Group.
“Roadcast’s products and services provide an unparalleled, qualitative insight to investors using a one-on-one meeting approach, while providing key company financials at the investor’s convenience. And since it is based on the company’s website, it is available 24/7, anywhere in the world, an important feature as more U.S.-based companies add international shareholders and targeting.”
Roadcast clients and distribution partners span national players such as NASDAQ and BetterInvesting.org (formerly the National Association of Investors Corp.), as well as companies like Wolverine World Wide (NYSE: WWW), Spartan Motors (Nasdaq: SPAR) and Mercantile Bank (Nasdaq: MBWM).
“As a former controller and IRO of a Fortune 1000 company, I understand what it’s like for management working as ‘road warriors’ and contending with the substantial time commitment associated with traditional, in-person investor roadshows,” said Dentzman. “Roadcast provides investors and analysts with access to CEOs, CFOs and IROs in a highly time-efficient and cost-effective manner.”
