Overview
In a live virtual meeting with CEO Wilson R. Jones and other executives of Oshkosh Corporation, society members will learn about this Fortune 500 mid-cap that generates sustainable profits from its market leadership in essential industries, manufacturing Pierce fire trucks, tactical wheeled vehicles used by the men and women of the U.S. armed forces and other vocational trucks used broadly in construction and other industries. The event will include a virtual tour of the company’s Appleton, Wisconsin custom fire truck manufacturing plant, along with questions from a panel of knowledgeable analysts. This direct access will be a way to introduce the company to new investors, and a chance for investors who are familiar with Oshkosh to ask questions.
The virtual tour will also be a way for the society to go back to its historic roots of company presentations, but by using new virtual technology this will be much more informative than a standard PowerPoint presentation. Moreover, with a panel of analysts, there will be insightful questions to help investors understand the company without a canned company presentation. The idea is to be more of a meeting that CEOs have with investors in boardrooms where the questions drive the discussion.
