Green Plains Inc. announced a continuation of its Board of Directors refreshment, appointing three highly qualified and independent individuals: Steven Furcich, Carl Grassi, and Patrick Sweeney. These new directors bring expertise in agriculture, commodities, capital allocation, finance, and strategic reviews, expanding the Board to at least 10 members.
The Board is expected to reduce to eight members after the company's 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, as two tenured directors will not stand for re-election. Additionally, Green Plains has formed a new Strategic Planning Committee, co-chaired by a new director and a tenured director, to provide analysis and recommendations on value-creation initiatives.
In connection with these changes, Green Plains entered into a cooperation agreement with long-term shareholder Ancora. This agreement includes a standstill and voting commitment, underscoring a collaborative effort to enhance shareholder value and support the company's ongoing strategic review and leadership transition.
