FormerXBC Inc XEBEQ

Two experienced hands onboard

[Resilience19]

I'm rather impressed by the level of candidates XBC has been able to attract for the posts.

Along with the expertise stemming from HyGean and Inmatec, I think 2021 is offering a turning point opportunity for XBC - in short, the departure of Prabhu may have become a blessing in disguise.

Granted, both these guys have a lot on their shoulders, joining XBC at such a time, but when joining a business so battered actually provides interesting opportunites to move away from older, less performing systems and work methods, and introduce best practices.

It's important to remember that Kurt has a LOT of skin in the game (not sure I could emphasize 'lot' much more). He knows the history of where these two guys come from and I'm sure he's been intimately involved in their recruitment process - to the point where he's probably had in mind (as previously alluded to) having the VP as a likely candidate to take over from him in the next couple of years.

In short, anyone having faith in management - irrespective of recent weaknesses - should trust the fact that XBC has selected strong candidates to help lead it forward, and to the next level - including in an eventual NASDAQ uplist.

My two cents.
