Boxlight Announces Reconstituted Board of Directors to Support Growth and Governance
Accomplished Executives, Carine Clark and Peter Fittin, Join Board, Michael Pope Named Chairman of the Board, and James Mark Elliott Rejoins Board
New Board Enables Compliance with Nasdaq Majority Independent Board Requirements
The Board elected Carine Clark and Peter Fittin to serve as directors with terms expiring at the Company’s 2026 annual meeting of shareholders and determined that each of Ms. Clark and Mr. Fittin qualifies as an independent director under Nasdaq listing standards. Ms. Clark has been appointed to serve as the Audit Committee Chair, as well as a member of the Nominating and Governance Committee, while Mr. Fittin was appointed to serve as a member of both the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee.
In addition, on August 14, 2025, Michael Pope, a non-executive director, was appointed Chairman of the Board, and the Board reappointed James Mark Elliott, a former CEO of Boxlight, as a non-executive director of the Company, effective immediately.
Mr. Pope has served on Boxlight’s Board since September 2014. He was CEO and Chairman of Boxlight from March 2020 to January 2024 and President of Boxlight from September 2014 to January 2024.
“We are excited to welcome Carine and Peter to the Boxlight Board. Their unique experience in technology, finance and strategy will be key ingredients in our growth strategy and execution. They will bring tremendous value to our Board and the next phase of Boxlight,” commented Dale Strang, Boxlight’s Chief Executive Officer. “This refreshed Board positions the Company to capitalize on improving market conditions and deliver long-term value for shareholders.”
As previously reported, the resignations of R. Wayne Jackson and Charles P. Amos left the Company out of compliance with Nasdaq Rule 5605(b)(1), which requires that a majority of the Board must be comprised of independent directors as defined in Nasdaq listing standards. To assist in addressing the shortfall, James Mark Elliott previously resigned from the Board on June 16, 2025.
