Senior Vice President Kenneth G. St. Romain has set December 31, 2026, as his official retirement date. This follows an earlier announcement from January that he would be stepping down sometime this year.
After he leaves his current post, he will stay on as an advisor to the Chief Executive Officer. This is an orderly transition for a long-time executive, and having him remain as an advisor should help keep the company's operations steady as his responsibilities are handed over.

The company appointed Jean-Marc Germain to its board of directors effective September 30, 2026. This move increases the board's size from eight to nine members.
Germain will serve on the Strategic Planning Committee and will stand for election by shareholders in 2027. Adding new perspectives to the board is a routine part of corporate governance and does not change the day-to-day operations of the pool supply business.
