He brings extensive financial and executive experience across multiple sectors, with particular strength in the international arena, which will be particularly valuable as we expand our global footprint. Having completed five material acquisitions in just the last year alone, and having recently announced our sixth planned acquisition, we are on track to achieve our goal of surpassing a $100 million revenue run rate within the next 12 months. Given our aggressive growth plans, we look forward to benefitting from Arthur’s knowledge, experience, and skills, as we realize the synergies and operating efficiencies across the acquired companies.
