 WiseTech Board changes and guidance update
Key Points
  • Four independent non-executive Directors to stand down
  • Founder and Founding CEO Richard White to remain
  • Mike Gregg to join the Board after half-year results
Full Summary

WiseTech Global Ltd has announced that four independent non-executive Directors - Lisa Brock, Richard Dammery, Michael Malone and Fiona Pak-Poy - have determined it is in the best interests of the Company to stand aside. This follows intractable differences in the Board and differing views around the ongoing role of the Founder and Founding CEO, Richard White. Their resignation will take effect after the signing of the half-year financial report and release of half-year results to ASX on Wednesday 26 February 2025. The half-year results presentation will be given by Andrew Cartledge (Interim CEO), Caroline Pham (Interim CFO) and Richard White (Founder and Founding CEO). Mike Gregg will commence as a director with effect from 26 February 2025 after release of half-year results to ASX, subject to satisfaction of customary director background checks. The Board has also reviewed progress of the Company's activities and now expects revenue to be at the bottom end of the guidance range, due to further delays to the rollout of the three announced Breakthrough Products. However, EBITDA margin rate is expected to be towards the top of the previously announced range, driven by stronger results from a company-wide efficiency program.
