Board Changes
B90 Holdings plc (AIM: B90), the online marketing and operating company for the gaming industry, announces that Paul Duffen has taken the decision to now stand down from his position as Executive Chairman. Over the past three years, Paul has helped effect the turnaround of the business and has led the company through a challenging period and substantial change. With the Company now in a much stronger position and having helped develop a clear strategy for the Company, Paul has decided to pursue other opportunities.
B90's current independent Non-Executive Director, Karim Peer, will become the Company's new Non-Executive Chairman with immediate effect and the operational team will report to him. The Company intends to strengthen the Board further over the coming months and subsequent announcements will be made as appropriate.
Paul Duffen commented:
"Having spent the past three years working on repositioning, rebranding, and reorganising the business I am confident that the Company is now in good shape for the future. I have therefore decided to leave the Company to pursue new challenges. The business is in good hands and I will remain available to the Board over the coming months if needed. I wish the team very well for the future and am confident of their ability to deliver on the business plan."
Karim Peer, Non-Executive Chairman, added:
"On behalf of everyone associated with the Company, I would like to thank Paul for the incredible work he has done over the past few years. His commitment and leadership have positioned the company well for the future and I look forward to helping the team grow and develop the business further. We are now moving into a new phase of development and we plan to reset our focus, whilst also building on the strong foundations laid by by Paul and the wider team."
