Ass #1- Step 2- Part B- My Thoughts and Questions

My thoughts 

Personally I'm not a fan of gambling in particular poker machines however all that aside the way they run their company is quite good and efficient.
I believe that an incentive program is a fantastic way to motivate employees, it can make them feel like they are contributing and are appreciated within the Company. However, if you are going to place the CEO and Senior Directing Board on constant review throughout the year you should also be reviewing you staff as to make sure the whole company is working to the best of its ability, not just your senior staff. The target of increasing female representation throughout the Company could be a little higher, 5% in my opinion is pretty low over a period of a year and a half. The whistle blower policy is fantastic, staff shouldn't feel as if their job is on the line for reporting wrong doing. They should feel safe and happy at work. Having committees designed to handle different aspects of the company is a genius idea. It makes certain several important things are not overlooked at anytime.

Questions

1. What role do shareholders play? There is a lot of talk about voting rights on certain issues but I'm not entirely confident in what they within the company.

2. Does anyone have any controversial shareholders? Example- My company is a gaming company that designs, manufactures and distributes poker machines. One of their major shareholders is HSBC.

3. What does ESOT and ASOT stand for? Ainsworth has a plan for both of them in the Annual Report.

4. Is your company a Parent Entity? If so, how many subsidiaries are under it? Ainsworth has 8.
