Abstract: We consider the homeomorphisms of the compact annulus $ \mathbb{A} = \mathbb{S}^1 \times [-1,1]$ isotopic to the symmetry $ S_{\mathbb{A}}$ which interchanges the two boundary components. We prove that if such a homeomorphism is, in some sense, conservative and twisted, then it possesses a periodic orbit of period exactly two. This can be regarded as a counterpart of the Poincaré-Birkhoff theorem in the isotopy class of $ S_{\mathbb{A}}$.
