Board Change - CFO Appointment

GYG (AIM: GYG), the market leading superyacht painting, supply and maintenance company, announces that Kevin McNair, currently Interim Chief Financial Officer, has been appointed to the Board as Chief Financial Officer with immediate effect. This follows the announcement on 31 July 2019 that Gloria Fernandez was stepping down from the Board.

Kevin joined the Company on 11 March 2019 to ensure that there was a smooth handover of responsibilities ahead of Gloria's planned leave. Kevin has already developed a very strong and deep understanding of GYG and has been an integral part of the team since joining the Group.

Kevin has more than 25 years' experience in financial management and capital markets. He has spent the past 15 years as finance director/chief financial officer of various publicly quoted and privately-owned businesses, most recently as interim CFO at Ebiquity plc.

Stephen Murphy, Chairman of GYG plc, commented:

"On behalf of the Board, I am delighted that Kevin has agreed to join the Board of GYG as permanent CFO. Since Kevin joined the Group in March, he has embedded himself in the business and taken on significant responsibilities and there is no doubt that his experience and knowledge will be invaluable as we continue on our growth journey."

The Company will announce its interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2019 on 26 September 2019.
