KHD appoints new CFO
Cologne, Germany, May 6, 2013 - Mr. Ralph Quellmalz (43) has been appointed
Chief Financial Officer and member of the Management Board of KHD Humboldt
Wedag International AG.
Mr. Quellmalz holds a degree in economics from the University of Cologne,
Germany. Before joining KHD in 2006, Mr. Quellmalz worked for one of the
big four accounting firms. There he gained a wealth of experience through
auditing the Annual Statutory Financial Statements and consolidated
Financial Statements of major international clients, with a strong focus on
the construction business.
Prior to his appointment as CFO, Mr. Quellmalz worked as KHD's Global Head
of Finance for several years and has a strong understanding of the cement
industry, the current challenging market environment, the project business
in emerging economies and of course KHD's business model. During this time
he also acquired a great deal of knowledge about the local accounting
practices as well as the cultural differences at KHD's regional Customer
Service Centers. As a member of the Management Board of KHD's subsidiary
company, KHD Humboldt Wedag Industrial Services AG, he is also familiar
with all corporate governance, compliance and operational matters
associated with listed companies. Furthermore, Mr. Quellmalz has experience
in restructuring measures, acquisitions / disposals and spin-offs as well
as due diligence processes.
The KHD Supervisory Board has taken this decision after careful
consideration. 'We in the Supervisory Board wanted to take enough time for
this very important decision and make sure that we appoint the right person
to lead and support the further development of the Group', comments Ms.
Eliza Yuen, Chairperson of the Supervisory Board. 'It is also important for
us that Mr. Quellmalz can take over the CFO duties starting on day one, as
he already knows the Group and its business very well' continues Ms. Yuen.
Amongst his other responsibilities, Mr. Quellmalz will take the lead for
KHD's investor relations. 'By having a full time CFO appointed, KHD can now
intensify its investor relations activities within the framework of our
