French term

o/o

French to English Bus/Financial Finance (general)
I can't seem to find anything for this acronym, at least not in this context.

"On soulignera en outre le manque de parole du PDG qui nous avait affirmé lors d’un o/o alors que l’action cotait 80 centimes que jamais il n’émettrait de nouvelles actions à ce prix (hors réinvestissement du dividende)"

Unfortunately there isn't much more to go on. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Thanks for the suggestion. It seemed very plausible. i've had it confirmed that it is, in fact, not an error and that the term is o/o, but it seems to be something they have invented. "O/o = one on one - Meeting individuel avec un dirigeant par opposition a une presentation publique ou un group meeting." Thanks for your time and suggestions.

Who is this writing? If they're analysts, that would support Duncan's suggestion.
Eleanor Johnston Nov 25, 2014:
This is really cryptic. I think Duncan may be right. I would try to ask the client if at all possible to get confirmation.
Duncan Moncrieff Nov 25, 2014:
Scan error..? Could the original have been a scanned document, giving an OCR error of the type o = c, i.e. the document originally had "c/c"..? If so, then c/c would probably mean "conference call" (e.g. http://www.afsinc.org/news/event.cfm?EventID=37597) which would make sense.

When price is (let's suppose 1 Euro) then share price was 80 cents.
