Galenfeha, Inc. (OTC: GLFH) today announced the reinstatement of founder James Ketner as Chairman and CEO of the company. Following a unanimous vote by the board of directors, Mr. Ketner's appointment became effective on October 27, 2016, and he will function in this role on an interim basis through December 31, 2016.
Regarding the appointment, Mr. Ketner commented: "Galenfeha has short term problems that need immediate attention. These problems exist as a result of misinformation and misrepresentations given to the board of directors. The board made decisions in good faith; however, we now realize some of those decisions were erroneous, so I will be rectifying these issues immediately."
Mr. Ketner continued: "The first thing on my agenda is to pay off the floorless convertible debentures written earlier this year. Given the already profitable nature of these notes to the bearer, I am hoping negotiations to extinguish these agreements will be both amicable and dignified."
Galenfeha was founded by Mr. Ketner in March 2013 as an Engineering Services/Research and Development company, headquartered in Bedford, Texas. The company opened a Manufacturing/Distribution facility in Shreveport, Louisiana in May 2014, and its stock has been actively traded (GLFH) since September 2014.
Mr. Ketner closed with: "We are also outlining a plan of action that reinforces management's commitment to the company and to the shareholders. This plan, once executed, will reduce the dilutive exposure the recent convertible notes had to our common stock."
