Sherritt International Corporation announced that Sir Richard Lapthorne, chairman of the board of directors, has advised the corporation that his previously announced retirement will be effective on June 9, 2025 due to personal reasons. Sir Richard has served as Chairman of the Board since June 2019. Over that time, the Corporation has undergone significant transformation, strengthening its balance sheet, advancing operational capabilities, and navigating an extended period of commodity price volatility.
During Sir Richard?s tenure as Chairman, Sherritt completed two major debt restructurings, implemented a disciplined capital strategy, and made critical investments to extend the life of key operations. These efforts have enabled the Corporation to deliver improved future cash flow, enhance operational efficiency, and position itself as a reliable supplier of critical minerals.
