Over the past two years, Niek Stapel has led the business through its sale from Johnson Matthey (LSE:JMAT) to Altaris, LLC (collectively with its affiliates, “Altaris”) and subsequent re-branding and launch as Veranova. Altaris and the Board thank Mr. Stapel for his service and contributions to Veranova through a period of significant change and transition, and wish him well in his future endeavors.
