For the 2007 annual report, PNM seems to have compromised. The report is 6" x 9" while the 10-K and meeting notice are 8.25" x 10.75". However, the only color pictures inside the report are of the management team and the board of directors. This may just reflect habit. Even so, black and white photos would have been better. The odd and expensive choices are with the 10-K. One solves a problem that didn't exist. The cover of the 10-K has a slit into which the annual report is inserted. Making the slit would be expensive and the insertion most likely was done by hand. Someone apparently thought the shareholders somehow couldn't hold the two in one hand and needed help keeping them together. When inserted, the annual report actually goes into a pocket in the front cover of the 10-K, which is a heavy stock printed in politically correct green and folded to be double thick front and back. The major corporate 10-Ks I see these days are self cover as is PNMs annual meeting notice.
The expensive cuteness with the 10-K seems out of place.
