Edmonton, Alberta – AutoCanada Inc. has announced the appointment of a new member to the company’s board of directors, capital markets expert Lee Matheson.
The North American auto dealer group has decided to bring Matheson into their fold with his wealth of experience as co-founder of Broadview Capital Management which was subsequently sold to Ewing Morris Investment Partners Ltd.
No stranger to high-profile board positions either, Matheson has served on the board of directors at RDM Corporation, AlarmForce Industries Inc., WesternOne Inc., Medworxx Solutions Inc. and Strad Inc.
“We are very pleased to welcome Lee to our Board of Directors. Both his Canadian capital markets and director experience will make him an excellent addition to our Board,” said executive chair of AutoCanada Paul Antony.
“This is an exciting time in our Company’s growth and development as we move from defence to offence. Strengthening the foundation of AutoCanada with a strong balance sheet and consistent top decile performance allows us to pivot and pursue an acquisition and innovation strategy. With Dennis DesRosiers’ upcoming retirement and departure from the Board, it is important for AutoCanada to have individuals around the table who will support the next leg of our growth journey.”
