ASX Announcement

Wellard Limited (Wellard, ASX:WLD) advises that it has appointed Mr John Stevenson as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO).
Mr Stevenson replaces Interim CFO Alan Rule.

Mr Stevenson possesses considerable experience in the agribusiness sector, notably as CFO and Director for Australia’s largest privately owned pastoral company, Consolidated Pastoral Company. He has also worked for Heytesbury Beef Pty Ltd.

His experience working in Asia, particularly Indonesia, Singapore and China, will be of considerable value to Wellard given the Company’s extensive operations in those markets, and he has worked for both listed and private companies.

“John brings to Wellard a unique depth and breadth of hands-on experience covering organisational efficiency and strategy; Asian operations and markets; ERP systems development; equity and debt funding and mergers and acquisitions,” said Wellard CEO Mauro Balzarini.

“I would like to thank Alan Rule for his hard work and commitment during the interim period while we conducted an executive search for a permanent CFO.”
