Board changes
LMS Capital Plc ("LMS Capital" or "the Company"), has been an independently listed company for over three years and in June 2009 successfully migrated from the AIM Market to the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange.
As part of its succession planning the Company has been reviewing the constitution of its Board so that it is best positioned for the future, and recently announced the appointment of David Verey as a Non-Executive Director. The Company has also started a formal search process to find a new Chief Executive. Robert Rayne will remain as Chief Executive until a successor is in place.
Martin Pexton, Managing Director of the Company, has decided that he will retire from the Company. He has resigned as a Director and will leave the Company at the end of this month.
Robert Rayne, Chief Executive of LMS Capital, said:
"We have a strong management team in place at LMS Capital and I look forward to leading the team and continuing to run the business day to day while we find a high quality Chief Executive to drive LMS Capital forward for the benefit of all shareholders.
On behalf of the Board I would like to thank Martin for his considerable contribution to LMS Capital over the last three years and wish him all the best for the future."
