Allen & Caron has, for more than 27 years, provided investor relations, media relations and corporate communications services to micro-, small- and mid-cap companies. With offices in New York City, Irvine, CA and London and affiliations in Paris and Milan/Rome, Allen & Caron is one of very few independently owned investor relations firms with a truly international reach.
Most of our clients are US corporations headquartered in the US and trading on US exchanges; however, we have developed a wide-ranging expertise as well in dealing with international corporations. Many clients are headquartered in the UK, the European Union or Asia, but trade on US exchanges, some with ADRs or GDRs, and others with “native” US shares. Some clients trade on multiple exchanges, and we are adept at understanding and applying the rules and customs of different exchanges. Our proprietary databases, maintained for a decade in a detailed "contact manager," are national and international in scope, with more than 20,000 buyside analysts and fund managers and 6,000 sellside analysts.
Our professional staff has a broad range of backgrounds, formal education and many years of streetwise experience that helps us bring a distinctive approach to the tasks of establishing an appropriate positioning strategy then creating and forwarding continuous, seamless communications strategies and pro-active awareness campaigns for our public-company clients.
The most common goals of our investor relations programs are to improve awareness among target audiences – primarily institutional investors – and to improve liquidity in the trading of our clients’ securities. Long-term account retention has been a hallmark of Allen & Caron, and client additions have been primarily secured as a result of current-client referrals or recommendations from investment banks, institutional portfolio managers and sellside analysts. We believe that the quality, scope and value of the services we provide our clients is reflected by their loyalty and by the fact that our primary sources of new business opportunities are our clients and industry associates.
