Bill Spurgeon,previously Executive Vice President of Dover Diversified, has been named Chief Executive Officer of Dover Diversified, succeeding Jerry Yochum, who will retire at the
end of 2004. Bob Livingston, previously President of Vectron International, has been promoted to Chief Executive Officer of the newly-created Dover Electronics subsidiary.
Ralph Coppola, previously President of Hill Phoenix, is the Chief Executive Officer of the newly-created Dover Systems subsidiary. Vectron International and Hill Phoenix have promoted internal candidates as their new Presidents, who will provide successful
leadership going forward.
Commenting on the announcement, Ron Hoffman, Dover’s President and Chief Operating Officer, said, “Our highly successful four-subsidiary structure was put in place in 1985 at a time when Dover’s manufacturing, sourcing and sales activities were much smaller and largely based in North America. Today, Dover is a truly global company,both in terms of the breadth of the markets we serve and our geographic locations, and our subsidiaries have grown significantly larger and more complex. The changes we announced today establish the appropriate operating framework for our current size and structure and, as we near our fiftieth anniversary in 2005, will help ensure that we are developing the right leaders to build on Dover’s solid track record of creating value for our shareholders. I am particularly delighted that we had strong internal candidates for all three subsidiary CEO positions, attesting to the strength of our management development process. In addition to the internal enhancements which these changes will provide, we believe the six segment financial information disclosure, beginning in
2005, will assist our shareholders in their understanding of the Company. Finally, I want to reaffirm that we remain committed to Dover’s unique culture and operating philosophy of extending autonomy to all of our operating companies and encouraging our
Presidents to run their companies as if they owned them.”
The current four-subsidiary structure will remain in effect for internal and external financial reporting through December 31, 2004. Dover’s executive management team will provide additional details about these changes at the Company’s previouslyannounced annual Investor Day meeting on Wednesday, November 3, 2004 at the
Waldorf Astoria in New York City. Dover Corporation is a diversified industrial manufacturer with over $5 billion in annualized revenues and is comprised of 49 operating companies that manufacture specialized industrial products and manufacturing equipment.
