And, on a personal note, I’m highly energized by the compelling opportunities we have in front of us to decarbonize mobility and grow the business over the coming decade.”

We wish Tony well during the next chapter of his life in retirement.”

Tony Guglielmin stated, “It’s been a privilege to serve as Ballard’s CFO. I retire with considerable confidence in Ballard’s future, with the Company well-positioned to lead in the transition to a cleaner, zero-emission world, with a very strong balance sheet. I look forward to Ballard’s ongoing success under Randy’s leadership, with a strong executive team and dedicated workforce, and to working with Paul on a smooth transition over the coming weeks.”
