Enviri Announces Update to its Board of Directors Refreshment Plan
22 January 2025 - 12:00AM
Enviri Corporation (NYSE: NVRI), a global, market-leading provider
of environmental solutions for industrial and specialty waste
streams, today announced that, under its ongoing Board refreshment
plan, the Company will add two new independent directors to its
Board of Directors this year as part of a cooperation agreement
with Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers (“Neuberger Berman”).
Enviri has refreshed its Board with three new members within the
last four years and has anticipated making further enhancements
with a focus on skillsets that will advance the Company’s
longer-term strategy. To that end, the Enviri Board will appoint
two new independent directors mutually agreed upon by the Company
and Neuberger Berman, the first in connection with the Company’s
2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and the second within eight
months. Consistent with the Company’s Corporate Governance
Principles and its Board refreshment plan, one incumbent director
will not stand for re-election at the 2025 Annual Meeting, and a
second will not stand for re-election at the following Annual
Meeting. In addition, the Company expects to continue to make
changes to its Board of Directors in 2026 as part of its Board
refreshment plan.
"Excellence in corporate governance, ongoing board refreshment
and active engagement with stockholders are fundamental to Enviri,
and we are pleased to continue building on these principles with
today’s announcement,” said Enviri Chairman and CEO Nick
Grasberger. “We look forward to welcoming exemplary members to our
Board this year and in the future. Our directors are focused
squarely on the execution of Enviri’s strategic priorities to drive
meaningful growth and deliver sustainable value, and we will
continue to engage with Neuberger Berman and our stockholders as we
progress on these initiatives.”
Benjamin Nahum, Senior Portfolio Manager and Managing Director,
Neuberger Berman, commented, “We have been long-term shareholders
in Enviri and strongly believe in the Company and its share price
potential. Enviri is at an inflection point as the Company executes
its transformation, and we believe that there is significant value
to be unlocked. We are committed to working with management to
achieve the Company’s full potential. In this spirit, we look
forward to collaborating with the Board to identify candidates
whose expertise can address the Company’s operating priorities
while promoting long-term shareholder value. With the support of
fresh voices on its Board, we are confident in Enviri and its
management team’s ability to position the Company to drive
increased value for stockholders. We also appreciate the ongoing,
constructive dialogue we have had with Enviri over the years.”
Enviri and Neuberger Berman have entered into a customary
cooperation agreement. The full cooperation agreement will be filed
by Enviri on a Form 8-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission.
