WATERLOO, Iowa, Aug. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Southern ITS International, Inc. (OTC Pink: SITS), operating as CorpHQ, a diversified public conglomerate, today announced a series of strategic changes designed to streamline operations, strengthen capital positioning, and align leadership for its next phase of growth.

CorpHQ has finalized the sale of its 80% stake in Kinzie Direct to founder Jeremy Larsen. With this transaction, Mr. Larsen will be exiting his executive roles within CorpHQ and its portfolio subsidiaries.

As a part of this change, CorpHQ announced refined executive leadership assignments across its expanding portfolio:

  • Tim Guenther will serve as President and CEO of CorpHQ, providing corporate-level leadership across all holdings.

These role clarifications reflect CorpHQ's commitment to focused execution, operational excellence, and industry-specific leadership.

To further align management incentives and enhance transparency, the Board approved the conversion of 15 million preferred shares (convertible at a 10-to-1 ratio) into 125 million common shares, held by Directors of the corporation. This conversion underscores the long-term confidence of CorpHQ's leadership in the company's trajectory.

The Board has also adopted a stock option equity plan to be utilized for current and future management and consultants—ensuring top-tier talent remains incentivized and aligned with shareholder interests.

Regarding its capital strategy, CorpHQ confirmed three subsidiary-level investments by a private entity owned by Tim Guenther. These investments are structured to raise working capital to support operational expansion and organizational resilience.

"These coordinated actions—leadership alignment, equity structure optimization, and targeted capital deployment—position CorpHQ for accelerated growth," said Guenther. "This reorganization reflects our strategy: disciplined execution, empowered leadership, and long-term value creation."
