FAIRPORT HARBOR, OH--(Marketwired - October 06, 2015) - As part of ongoing efforts to more efficiently utilize corporate resources, The OurPet's Company (OTCQX: OPCO) today announces it will no longer conduct quarterly earnings teleconferences. In support of this decision, OurPet’s is ramping up its online communications and social media strategies to ensure that shareholders have ongoing access to the company’s most recent news, financial reports and progress.
"We have hosted consistent quarterly earnings calls for the 18 months, and have not seen participation meet our targets. In light of this, we feel that we can allocate our funds toward more worthy causes, and have identified more far-reaching and cost-effect routes to disseminate company news and financial reports," says Scott Mendes, CFO of OurPet’s Company. "This decision further emphasizes our commitment to increasing shareholder value, transparency and communication. We look forward to providing our shareholders and potential investors with more readily available, up-to-date corporate information."
To demonstrate its new communications strategy, OurPet’s recently engaged DreamTeamNetwork, through which OurPet’s will fully utilize social media, news releases, targeted marketing and a mobile version of the OurPet’s website.
