Directorate Changes
Cybit Holdings Plc (AIM: CYH), the international provider of telematics based
products and services for the management and control of land and sea based
assets, today announces the restructuring of its Plc Board.
After careful consideration by the Directors of Cybit, it has been agreed that
the Board will be reconstituted to reflect the Company's scale and the increased
focus required on sales and marketing in the current economic climate. The
changes to the Board will reduce the number of directors from six to four which,
with effect from 10 June 2009, will comprise two executive and two non-executive
directors.
Sir John Wheeler, who has been a non-executive director of the Company for over
five years, will be standing down from the Board effective 10 June 2009.
John Wisdom, Group Sales and Marketing Director, who has been with the Company
since 2001 and is a key member of the Company's strong operational team, will
step down from the Plc Board although he will remain a member of the Company's
operational board. Mr Wisdom will remain focused on driving sales and marketing
for the telematics business, a primary focus and significant growth opportunity
for the Company.
Neil Johnson, Chairman of Cybit, commented:
"The restructuring of the Plc Board, part of a wider re-alignment of business
resources, better reflects the needs of the business in the current market and
still provides shareholders with a robust and experienced board structure. I
would like to thank Sir John for his valuable contribution to the Board over the
past five years. As a key member of the Company's operational board, John Wisdom
has been given increased responsibility and the new structure will provide him
with the additional time to focus on his expanded role. John is a very valuable
member of the team and we look forward to his continued contribution to the
Group."
