ArborWorks LLC Announces the Promotion of Mr. Clint Stephens to Vice President of Operations, Southeastern Region

ArborWorks LLC is pleased to announce that it has promoted Clint Stephens to the position of Vice President of Operations, Southeastern Region. The appointment takes effect immediately, and Clint will be headquartered in Knoxville, TN. An ArborWorks office is in the planning stages, and its location will be announced soon.

The Company's CEO, Frank Bardonaro, said, "We are very excited to promote Clint to this key position because we know he has the experience and the expertise to catalyze our growth in the southeast region. There's a lot of opportunity for us in Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama, Georgia and Florida, and he will be responsible for organic expansion, growing our customer base, driving incremental revenue and assessing strategic acquisition opportunities. On top of vegetation management and utility line clearance, we expect we can serve the region with severe storm response expertise and equipment. Considering Clint's extensive strategic financial analysis skills and his highly relevant business background, we don't think there's a better person for the job."

Clint Stephens is a strategic business professional with over 15 years of experience in heavy civil and utility industries. For the past two years, Clint has acted as the Company's Controller / CFO as a third-party consultant, with a focus on estimating and pricing. He also played an important role during the Company's acquisition. This new role formalizes Clint's position with the Company. Since the beginning of June 2022, ArborWorks has already realized operational success in the southeast region and is well positioned to grow substantially.

"I am very excited about this new opportunity," said Clint. "I love working at ArborWorks. The Company has a great culture and a lot of positive energy. Our great customer service, investment into innovative machinery and our complete commitment to safety make ArborWorks a true leader. I'm very entrepreneurial by nature, and the opportunity to expand the Company into the southeast is a big motivator for me. I really appreciate the fact that there's a lot of excitement in California about the expansion out east, and we know we have all the support we need to succeed."
