The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The company determined that the new outside director could apply her experience as an outside director at other companies and her professional expertise as a certified public accountant and tax accountant to the oversight of management. It also determined that she has no special interest in the company and is unlikely to have a conflict of interest with general shareholders.
