On Wednesday, 2 September 2020, the Ljubljana Stock Exchange in partnership with NLB d.d. and Wood & Co., hosted the first webinar of the year through the GoToWebinar platform. Following positive feedback from market participants on such events in the past year, five of the Ljubljana Stock Exchange blue-chips decided to participate in this edition:  Krka d.d., Novo mesto, SavaRe, d.d., Petrol d.d., Ljubljana, Triglav Group and NLB d.d..

Given the carefully coordinated date of the event, the topic discussed were the financial results for the first half of 2020. Webcast was opened with a presentation of SavaRe d. d. financial results, given by Polona Pirš Zupančič, Member of the Management Board. As second, Mr. David Bratož, Member of the Management Board presented the financial results of Krka, d. d., Novo mesto. He was followed by a presentation of Petrol d.d.

Last, Mr Blaž Brodnjak, President of the Management Board, presented the results for NLB d.d..

In three hours five comprehensive presentations were given, supported by Q&A sections where a plethora of interesting and insightful questions were asked, which indicates that Slovenian listed companies are well-known internationally and are interesting to international investors. This event is just one out of many that pursue goals and activities of the Ljubljana Stock Exchange and are organised with the intention of increasing the visibility and exposure of the Slovenian capital market.

Judging by the number of registered investors, the event was a definite success, as more than 120 investors, among them 65 international, participated. The investors came from 20 countries, i.e.  Albania, Andorra, Aruba, Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, Germany, India, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, United Kingdom, United States and of course, Slovenia.

The composition and active participation of investors implies high interest of investors in such events, nationally and globally. With this in mind, the Ljubljana Stock Exchange will organise more Webcasts this year.
