to capitalize on the major opportunities in the global food sector. Our focus
is clear: aggressively execute our multi-pronged growth strategy to drive
significant increases in revenue and profitability along with streamlining
operations to unlock the full potential of this company."
Ms. Jorge succeeds Michael Roper, who will transition into a new leadership
position as Chief Governance & Compliance Officer overseeing the Company's
regulatory and capital market requirements. Mr. Roper will also continue to
lead the previously announced initiative to divest the Company's remaining
restaurant operations.

time as CEO. We've positioned the Company as a highly competitive and nimble

in an industry veteran like Catia to lead the next stage of growth. I look
forward to supporting her and the entire team in this transition as we push
