The winners were announced for the fifth-annual Investor Relations Magazine U.S. Awards, which recognize excellence in investor relations among public companies. Winners were determined from a survey of over 1,800 U.S. portfolio managers, securities analysts, and -- for the first time -- retail investors who are subscribers to Barron's Online. Respondents were asked to rate companies and investor relations officers in 20 categories ranging from management of disclosure to IR web sites. The survey was conducted for Investor Relations by Erdos & Morgan, using lists supplied by The Carson Group. "Investor Relations Magazine is proud of our awards and the exhaustive research that goes into them. They have quickly become known as the worldwide barometer for investor relations practices," said Neil Stewart, Investor Relations' Editor-in-Chief. "The need for strong communications with investors in this ever-changing, fast-paced economy leads public companies to rely more than ever on the expertise of investor relations practitioners for the delivery of accurate financial information." The winner of the BARRON'S Grand Prix Award for Best Overall Investor Relations for companies with a market capitalization of over $30 billion was General Electric. Accepting the award on behalf of General Electric was investor relations officer Mark Vachon. Also awarded the Grand Prix were Staples in the large-cap category ($10-30 billion market cap), Exodus Communications in the $2.5-10 billion range, and Calpine Corp. in the small-cap category.
