9 September 2025
THE PEBBLE GROUP PLC
("The Pebble Group", the "Group" or the "Company")
Board Changes
The Pebble Group, a leading provider of technology, products and related
services to the global promotional products industry, is pleased to announce
the appointment of Markus Bihler to the Board of Directors of The Pebble Group
("Board") as an Independent Non-Executive Director with effect from today.
Markus is a seasoned international executive, investor, and board advisor. He
founded a global long/short hedge fund, led two high-growth European and
Southeast Asian technology businesses as CEO, and began his career in private
equity with EQT Partners and The Blackstone Group. Markus holds a degree in
Economics and Management from the University of Oxford and lectures in finance
at the University of Cape Town.
Markus' appointment is to coincide with the planned step down of Stuart
Warriner, who, after almost 6 years with the Group, today leaves his role as
Independent Non-Executive Director to the Board. Stuart has chaired the
Company's Remuneration Committee since its IPO in 2019 and has made an
exceptional contribution to the dynamic of the Board throughout his tenure.
Chris Lee, Chief Executive Officer, said: "I am delighted to welcome Markus to
the Board of The Pebble Group. His experience further strengthens the Board's
expertise and will be valuable as we continue to build on our momentum.
I would also like to thank Stuart for his thoughtfulness and counsel
throughout his time with the Group. He has provided challenge and support in
equal proportion, making a positive and lasting impact on the Board."
Markus will sit as a member of the Audit, Remuneration and Nomination
Committees of the Company.
David Moss, Independent Non-Executive Director, has been appointed as Chair of
the Remuneration Committee, effective today. David has been a member of the
Remuneration Committee since his appointment to the Board in June 2023.
