Henry Schein plans to reduce the size of its board as its chairman retires and several members of its board plan to not stand for re-election.
The healthcare-solutions provider said Wednesday its board will be reduced to 10 from 15 members following its annual stockholder meeting on May 21.
The board plans to appoint Stanley Bergman, board chairman and former chief executive officer, as chairman emeritus effective following the meeting as he retires from the board. Bergman has been a director on the company's board for 44 years, and he was also previously the company's longtime CEO, having stepped into the role in 1989. He was succeeded by Frederick Lowery on March 2.
The company said several of its board members--Joseph Herring, Robert Hombach, Scott Serota and Bradley Sheares--will not stand for re-election at the annual shareholder meeting.
The board expects its slate of incumbent directors will maintain the right mix of perspectives, experience and skills, the company said.
