Kendle names new director of investor relations

Mr Lawson is responsible for expanding the company’s investor relations program to strengthen shareholder and analyst relations and ultimately grow the company’s shareholder base. Mr Lawson is based in Cincinnati and reports to Karl Brenkert III, senior vice president and CFO.

Mr Lawson brings more than two decades of investor relations and corporate communications experience to his position with Kendle. Most recently, he served as vice president of investor relations for Associated Estates Realty, a multi-family real estate investment trust in Cleveland.

Mr Brenkert said: “Mike’s experience in working with buy-side and sell-side analysts, along with his expertise in developing and executing targeted financial communications strategies, will be of great benefit to Kendle as we focus on sharing the Kendle story with current and potential analysts and shareholders.”
