Askeladden Capital Plans AstroNova Forum Amid Governance Concerns
Askeladden Capital, owning 9.2% of AstroNova, announced a "town hall" for stakeholders to meet their board nominees. The event aims to discuss plans for improving AstroNova's performance, highlighting the recent challenges due to current governance. The virtual meeting is set for June 12, 2025.
The nominees, Shawn Kravetz, Jeff Sands, Ryan Oviatt, Boyd Roberts, and Samir Patel, offer expertise in corporate turnarounds and governance. The goal is to maximize shareholder value and address the issues arising from AstroNova's management, such as the MTEX acquisition resulting in significant losses and layoffs.
Askeladden emphasizes that better governance can unlock AstroNova's potential value, drawing comparisons with Transdigm's acquisition of Servotronics. The firm has remained critical of AstroNova's current board and CEO Greg Woods, advocating for strategic change.
