There will perhaps be little actual detail as Boohoo updates shareholders on how it did in the fist quarter, but eyes are likely to be fixed on the online retailer after weeks of turbulent news.
Investors will hope that the company, involved in a controversial buyout and hit by a short-seller's report, can exert an aura of calm as in its trading update on Wednesday.
It is also facing a potential shareholder revolt over a payout to boss John Lyttle and salary increases for some of its top executives.
Advisory group ISS has told investors to vote against Boohoo’s pay policy at its AGM, according to The Sunday Times , after claiming that there was a lack of explanation for the fashion etailer’s £1m payment to Lyttle or for hefty pay increases of between 18% and 30% to other directors.
Boohoo insists the award to Lyttle, which came after he joined from Primark, was to compensate him for payments he forfeited when quitting the high street giant.
Boohoo said that payment, and the reasoning for it, were both disclosed to the stock market back in July last year.
In March, just before the 海角视频 economy shut down, nervous shareholders sent Boohoo's shares tumbling to only a little over half the value of where they were trading in February.
But investors that stuck with the company, or bought in at a low of 157.5p were rewarded soon after lockdown, as the company ticked back up to as high as 390p per share.

"Boohoo has had its share of ups and downs over the past few years, and this year's share price moves haven't been any different.
"The online retailer saw record highs in the share price in January before a spectacular Covid-19 collapse to three-year lows, which was then followed by a recovery to new record highs last month," said CMC Markets chief market analyst Michael Hewson.
It has been two months since the company announced a strong set of results for last year. Revenues were up by almost half, and profit even more so.
But it has hardly been a quiet time. In May the company was forced to defend itself from the claims of a short-selling hedge fund.
Matthew Earl's ShadowFall accused bosses at the retailer of misleading shareholders over its financials. Boohoo denied this.
It also warned that the £200 million the firm had raised could be used to buy the stake of Pretty Little Thing that Boohoo did not own from the Umar Kamani, the son of Boohoo's founder and chairman.
Just days after the report, Boohoo paid £270 million for Mr Kamani's third of Pretty Little Thing, far below ShadowFall's claims that it could cost up to £1 billion.

Mr Hewson said: "The short-seller also claimed that the company was treating cash generated by PLT as though it owned the business outright, saying it could cost the company almost £1 billion to buy the remaining stake.
"The resultant buying out of the said stake by Boohoo management helped put paid to that claim.
"This week's first quarter numbers come against a backdrop of a turbulent quarter and could go a long way to further put a hole in the claims of last month's short seller, as well as reassure investors who have had quite a journey so far this year.
Sophie Lund-Yates, an equity analyst at Hargreaves Lansdown said: "Despite seeing sales initially struggle because of lockdown, Boohoo's April trading was actually up year-on-year. This is no mean feat given the current climate and we're keen to see if the trend has continued."
"It's a trading statement so we aren't likely to get profit or margin detail, but it will be important to look out for any commentary on discounting. Gross margins have come under pressure as the retail sector becomes increasingly competitive."
