21 Beautiful Annual Report Design Examples
Today, we would like to inspire you with a round up of beautiful annual report design examples that we gathered from around the web. An annual report is an important document that every public company releases every year. It gives shareholders and other interested people information about its activities throughout the preceding year. It also contains information and data about its financial performance. Since annual reports contain a lot of financial data and numbers, it is, therefore, a challenge on the part of the designer to make financial data presentation more interesting.
