JERSEY, Channel Islands, Feb. 23, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Quotient Limited (NASDAQ:QTNT), a commercial-stage diagnostics company (the Company), today announced that Manuel Mendez has been appointed as Chief Executive Officer of the Company and will begin serving in that role on April 1st<\/sup>, 2021. Franz Walt, who has served as the company\u2019s CEO since 2018 is retiring.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are very confident, that Manuel is the right leader,\u201d said Heino von Prondzynski, Chairman of Quotient\u2019s Board of Directors. \u201cHis background and experience make him ideally suited to guide the Company through its very important next phase, commercialization of our revolutionary MosaiQ platform, first in transfusion diagnostics and then in other, potentially even more promising applications.\u201d<\/p>\n

Manuel joins Quotient from Quest Diagnostics (NYSE: DGX), the world\u2019s leading provider of diagnostic information services where he served as the Senior Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer. \u00a0He played a key role in accelerating growth and supporting the COVID-19 efforts. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Manuel brings over 30 years of experience in the diagnostic and life science markets. Before joining Quest, he was living in Germany and served as SVP and Head of Global Commercial Operations and a member of QIAGEN N.V. Executive Committee, a worldwide provider of Sample to Insight solutions for\u00a0molecular\u00a0testing. \u00a0Manuel has held a variety of senior leadership roles with Abbott Laboratories, Thermo Fisher Scientific, OraSure Technologies, and bioMerieux \u2013 living in\u00a0the United States,\u00a0Europe,\u00a0Asia, and Latin America.<\/p>\n

Manuel received an MBA from\u00a0Northwestern University’s\u00a0Kellogg School of Management and a bachelor’s degree in biomedical engineering from\u00a0Boston University.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m excited to join the talented Quotient team to bring the innovative MosaiQ solution to the transfusion diagnostics market,\u201d said Mr. Mendez.<\/p>\n

Company Board Chairman Mr. von Prondzynski expressed the Board’s gratitude and appreciation to Mr. Walt for his service. Mr. Walt came out of retirement to serve as the Company’s CEO beginning in 2018. \u201cFranz, who is a very good friend, always said that he planned to serve only until we found the right candidate to take over as CEO,\u201d said Mr. von Prondzynski. \u201cFranz did an outstanding job. He and his team accomplished their goal of preparing the MosaiQ system for commercialization, by obtaining the first five MosaiQ CE marks and one U.S. FDA Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for the Company’s Covid Antibody test.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI would like to take the opportunity to thank the Board for their support and trust. I feel honored to be part of the Quotient and MosaiQ legacy, it was an exciting time and I wish the entire team success as they continue to grow the business,\u201d said Franz Walt.<\/p>\n
