IES Holdings adds John Louis Fouts to board and audit committee

Neutral Impact 2 of 5 leadership Written later

IES Holdings elected John Louis Fouts as a director effective September 23, 2024, and appointed him to the Audit Committee. The appointment came after Nasdaq notified the company that the Audit Committee had fallen below the three-member minimum following a director's resignation on September 4, 2024, and the company says the committee is again compliant.

Key points

  • Fouts was elected a director on September 23, 2024, and will serve until the next annual meeting or until his successor is elected.
  • Fouts was appointed to the Audit Committee on September 23, 2024, after Nasdaq said the committee had fewer than three members.
  • Fouts has been managing member of Fouts Family Investments since 2021 and was a partner at Water Street Capital from 2002 to 2021.
  • The company announced the appointment in a press release dated September 26, 2024, filed as Exhibit 99.1.
