Edison Investment Research

I have been impressed with Edison’s grasp not only of the scope of our research programme and the strategy, but also with the excellent attention to detail in terms of the technical and clinical data. This combined with the breadth of research distribution to investors is of significant value to us.

Edison has been a significant part of our IR strategy. Supporting the broker, improving visibility, strengthening and amplifying the message and increasing our potential and real investor audience has been a significant part of our share price growth"

I read your research, it is always very professional adding considerably more value than the usual snapshot note you get from brokers on small companies!

One of the problems faced by many smaller companies is gaining recognition and developing an investor profile. This is very important in the early stages of a company's life, but equally so on an ongoing basis.

One way to achieve this is to ensure that there is adequate research coverage that is widely disseminated. Having an independent boutique provide coverage along side the house broker is a good way to achieve this.

There are a number of firms that have appeared in the last few years and one that has progressed considerably is Edison Investment Research.

There are many exciting and attractive smaller quoted companies and most of these for some time can go under- or totally unresearched.

Sensible, balanced, concise and well written research coverage of these companies is at a premium for both the professional and private investor. In this context, Edison's research output on both companies and sectors is most welcome in helping to make a significantly better informed investment decision.

Edison Research fulfills a very useful role in providing high quality research on the smaller and mid cap sector, an area of the market which is often neglected by institutional brokers but nevertheless provides plenty of exciting opportunities for the private client investor.

The acquisition of a wider audience for a small listed company is of great importance. This wider audience enables greater liquidity which often leads to a higher market rating. I have found independent research from companies such as Edison to be highly beneficial in achieving this aim.

Edison provides high quality research coverage provided by an experienced team of analysts often on companies overlooked by the majority of brokers. With this institutions and brokers are able to develop their knowledge of companies, which leads to greater awareness and enhances liquidity.

Edison's research is a valuable tool in the hunt for good investment opportunities. It is balanced, objective and provides a level of detail not normally associated with smaller companies.
