RE:RE:Trevali to Release Second Quarter Results on August 4, 2021The time between release of results and the conference call is more of an issue for me than whether it's before or after the market.
SLF and MFC have highly-complex reports. They release them the day before the call, giving analysts time to digest them. I see this as a courtesy to analysts and to those shareholders who join the calls.
But there are companies that release results shortly before the call, such as ENB -- I've heard Monaco pointedly observe that the answer to an analyst's question was buried in the report -- so GIVE THE DUDE TIME TO READ IT BEFORE THE CALL). Analysts have little time to assess results and form competent and comprehensive questions. This leads to conversations between analysts and management happening away from the call, when shareholders can't hear them.
I have no concerns about TV reporting the night before the call.
