Board Changes
FGEN, a leading investor in private environmental infrastructure assets across the UK and mainland Europe, today announces that Ed Warner will be stepping down as Chair of the Board and Nomination Committee with effect from the conclusion of the Annual General Meeting ("AGM") on 17 September 2026, having served as Chair for four years.
The Board is pleased to announce that Stephanie Coxon, currently Senior Independent Director ("SID") and Chair of the Audit Committee, will succeed Ed as Chair. In doing so, Stephanie will also step back from her role as Chair of the Audit Committee and SID. Stephanie is an experienced FTSE 250 Non-Executive Director with over twenty years' experience across listed businesses, investment companies, private equity, infrastructure, and real estate.
Stephanie's current board roles include Non-Executive Director positions at International Public Partnerships Ltd and PPHE Hotel Group, as well as serving on the board of the Association of Investment Companies (AIC). Stephanie previously led the investment trust capital markets team at PwC for the UK and Channel Islands for seven years.
Stephanie's deep knowledge of the Company and the sector will be invaluable and will provide continuity to FGEN as it continues to execute its long-term strategy.
Alan Bates will be appointed to the role of SID and a search is underway for an Audit Chair, which the Company will update on in due course.
Commenting, Ed Warner, outgoing Chair of FGEN, said: "It has been a privilege to serve as Chair since 2022. During that time, the Company has made significant progress despite some of the headwinds faced by the broader sector, including a rebranding, refocusing its strategy, and delivering consistent dividend growth underpinned by a high-quality, high-performing portfolio of assets. In handing over to Stephanie, I leave the Company in excellent hands and uniquely placed in a vital sector contributing towards the environment and energy security. She brings sound governance instincts and a thorough understanding of FGEN's business, and I will continue to follow the Company's success as a shareholder in the years ahead."
Stephanie Coxon, incoming Chair of FGEN, said: "I am delighted to have been appointed as FGEN's Chair and grateful to Ed for his outstanding stewardship of the Board. Ed leaves the Company with strong and growing strategic momentum and well positioned as the leader in environmental infrastructure investing, and I look forward to working with him closely to ensure a smooth transition."
