ASX Announcement 16 February 2017
LogiCamms appoints new Chief Executive Officer
Mr Steve Banning has announced his retirement from the position of Managing Director effective 22[nd] February, 2017. Mr Banning will be succeeded by Ms Flora Furness, currently Director Engineering Services for LogiCamms. Ms Furness will be appointed as Chief Executive Officer.
The appointment of Ms Furness follows Mr Banning indicating to the Board late last year that he was looking to step down. The Board subsequently appointed an executive search firm to consider both internal and external candidates with Ms Furness selected as the outstanding candidate.
Ms Furness has extensive experience, both within LogiCamms over the past 6 years, and also more broadly in the engineering services sector with AMEC Minproc. The terms of Ms Furness’ appointment are set out in Annexure 1 together with a more detailed biography.
The Chairman, Mr Peter Watson, thanked Mr Banning for his stewardship of the business through what has been a challenging time. Mr Banning will continue to act as a consultant to the business over the next 6 months and assist with the transition to Ms Furness. Mr Watson, on behalf of the Board, also congratulated Ms Furness on her appointment.
Mr Watson reaffirmed previous guidance given at the Company’s AGM in November 2016 of 1H17 revenue in the order of $40M and a negative EBITDA. Mr Watson also noted that there have been a significant number of recent contract wins covering all industry sectors and all geographies that LogiCamms operates in providing a solid start to the second half of the year.
The business continues to identify cost efficiencies which will assist in the growth of the business moving forwards. The net benefit of this program is anticipated to be approximately $0.5M in 2H17, with further savings to be realised in FY18. Further details will be provided as part of the 1H17 Reporting to the market.
