CHARLOTTE, N.C.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nHayward Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: HAYW) Board of Directors appointed Ron Keating to serve as its newest independent director, effective immediately. The Hayward Board now comprises 10 directors, nine of whom are independent.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe appointment of Ron Keating to our Board lends direct global operational and financial expertise to Hayward, along with critical expertise in the water industry,\u201d said Kevin Holleran, Hayward President, CEO and Director. \u201cRon\u2019s distinguished career and reputation as a decisive leader brings strategic and practical judgement as we continue to execute our growth strategies and deliver value to shareholders.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

He began his tenure at Excelitas in October 2023 after having served the previous nine years as president, CEO and a director of Evoqua Water Technologies Corporation. Keating took the global provider of water and wastewater treatment solutions and services public in 2017, and in mid-2023, he led the sale of Evoqua to Xylem (NYSE: XYL), with a market topping purchase price at 25x EBITDA. Before leading Evoqua, he served as president and CEO of Contech Engineered Solutions, an infrastructure site solutions provider.\n<\/p>\n

\nKeating also sits on the board of publicly-traded EnPro Industries, Inc, and on the board of trustees for the Manufacturers Alliance (formerly known as Manufacturers Alliance for Productivity and Innovation).\n<\/p>\n
