Algeco Announces CEO Succession

LONDON, Sept. 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Algeco Group, Europe and Asia Pacific's leading business services company specialising in modular space, has today announced that Andrew Tyler, Chief Executive Officer, will be stepping down from his role in November 2019.

Algeco has initiated the search for a new CEO to work alongside Mike Smith, Chairman, who joined the business earlier this year to lead the next phase of the company's growth. Andrew will continue to support Algeco's Executive team through the transition period.

As CEO of Algeco, Andrew led the creation of Algeco Group, integrating the European and Asia Pacific businesses and moving the Headquarters from Baltimore to London. He oversaw the successful integration of Touax Solutions Modulaires and the spin-off of Target Hospitality, the North American remote accommodation business. During his tenure the Company has grown significantly, with underlying EBITDA growth of 26% (including the integration of a significant acquisition). At the 2019 Half-Year EBITDA grew 6% organically in challenging trading conditions. In the past year net leverage was reduced from 6.2x to 4.6x.

Today, Algeco is Europe and Asia Pacific's leading business services company specialising in modular space with approximately 240,000 modular space and storage units. The business benefits from strong recurring revenue streams, a best-in-class value added products and services offering and plays into the broader secular trend towards modularisation and agile space solutions.

Mike Smith, Chairman, said: "Andrew has led a period of major change at Algeco and I would like to thank him for his significant contribution and wish him all the very best in the future."
