doesn't matter on announcement date, each company may announce at different times. important one is the ex date.

most major and important announcements are after after the market closed. however i do observe that some general announcements are released at anytime during the day.

also, for companies that plan to release major announcement during the day, they may request for a trading halt for that day or session.
