To avoid​ potential selective disclosure or even the perception or appearance of selective disclosure, Orient Overseas (International) Limited (“OOIL”) will observe “Quiet Periods” prior to its interim and annual results announcements.   Quiet Periods commence 30 days and 60 days immediately preceding the respective publication dates of the interim results announcement and the annual results announcement on the websites of both HKEX and  OOIL ( www.ooilgroup.com​) till the respective publication dates of the results.

During a Quiet Period, OOIL will not initiate any meetings or telephone contacts with analysts or investors.  As a general rule, OOIL will also not engage in one-on-one meetings (in person, on the telephone or using other audio-visual technology). 

 

However, in the interests of satisfying its obligation to maintain adequate and appropriate investor communications, and in line with market practice, OOIL will continue to respond to questions concerning publicly-available, non-inside information, including material already published by OOIL.  OOIL will also answer questions on topics generally known to be affecting the container shipping industry as a whole, but without reference to any information regarding OOIL that is not already in the public domain.   OOIL will continue to suggest corrections of material inaccuracy in any analysts’ reports (of which it is aware) relating to historical information that is publicly available.  ​
