To ensure compliance with applicable law and fair practices for all investors and analysts, RYAM has implemented a quiet period that commences on the last day of each fiscal quarter and ends after the quarterly earnings teleconference for each of the first three quarters of the fiscal year. For the fourth quarter of the fiscal year, the quiet period commences two weeks prior to the last day of the fiscal quarter and ends after the earnings teleconference. During the quiet period, the company will not conduct meetings or calls with analysts and investors. These communications will resume after the completion of each quarterly earnings call. However, the company may suspend its quiet period if significant and relevant new information is made public during the quiet period.
RYAM schedules quarterly earnings calls that can be accessed live through our website. Upon scheduling, the event will appear on our Investor Relations Calendar on our website.
