It was a great honor to be named Orion’s CEO this past September. While I have only been in this role a short time and this is my first letter to you, I have many positive thoughts and observations to share. First, I couldn’t have asked for a better CFO than Scott Thanisch, who joined Orion at the same time as I did. We immediately formed a great partnership and are totally aligned in our commitment to strategically grow our company through
strong leadership and discipline that will improve profitability and increase stakeholder value.
We know there’s a lot of work ahead, but we also have a lot to work with. Ticking off the list, Orion is a vital provider of services to mission critical infrastructure projects within the marine and building sectors in some of our nation’s fastest growing areas. We have long-tenured relationships with blue-chip clients across the government and private sectors in both our marine and concrete segments. In Marine, that includes the US Navy and US Army Corps of Engineers, many of the largest ports in the US and the Caribbean, and major petrochemical companies. In our Concrete division, we have a stellar reputation in Texas that is resonating in our target markets of Dallas and Houston.
