Worthing Jackman to Be Appointed Non-Executive, Independent Chairman of Board

PHOENIX, March 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WillScot Holdings Corporation (“WillScot” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: WSC), a leader in innovative temporary space solutions, today announced that, as part of its ongoing board refreshment efforts, the WillScot Board of Directors (the “Board”) has unanimously approved the nomination of Dominick (Nick) Zarcone to stand for election to the Board at the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”).

Brad Soultz, CEO of WillScot, commented, “We look forward to welcoming Nick to our Board. Nick’s unanimous nomination by the Board is the culmination of a thorough search process supported by an independent search firm, and he will be the fourth new independent director added to the Board in the past three years. Nick brings significant public company executive leadership, finance and corporate governance expertise to an already distinguished Board. We are excited to benefit from his perspectives and experience as we continue to leverage the Company’s strong free cash flow and deliver value for our shareholders.”

The Board has also unanimously determined that Worthing Jackman will assume the role of non-executive, independent Chairman to succeed Erik Olsson, who will be retiring from the Board following the Annual Meeting.

Mr. Olsson commented, “Following a successful, five-year tenure as Chairman of the WillScot Board, I am excited to pass the baton to Worthing. I have had the opportunity to work closely with Worthing since we appointed him to the Board, and I am confident he is the ideal leader for WillScot as we continue to drive profitable growth and enhance value for our stakeholders. It has been an incredible honor to lead the WillScot Board, and I am proud of all that we accomplished together. I look forward to following WillScot’s continued success in the years ahead.”

“On behalf of the Board of Directors, I want to thank Erik for his years of important contributions to the WillScot Board,” continued Mr. Soultz. “Erik’s business insight and deep industry experience have been extraordinarily valuable for WillScot, and we wish him the best as he retires from the Board. We are thrilled to have a strong, proven leader like Worthing step into the role of Chairman. Since joining the Board, he has made a meaningful impact, and we will continue to benefit from his experience and leadership as we execute our strategy to unlock shareholder value. Finally, I would like to thank our shareholders – including TOMS Capital Investment Management (TCIM) – for their support and feedback over the last several months leading up to our recent investor day. We have laid out a portfolio of growth levers along with sales and operations enhancements that we believe will continue to expand margins and provide multiple pathways to achieving free cash flow of $4 to $6 per share in the next three to five years. As we continue to advance the Company’s strategy, we remain open to all avenues to create shareholder value and committed to ongoing Board evolution.”

Benjamin Pass, Co-Founder and Chief Investment Officer of TCIM, added, “I want to thank Brad and the WillScot directors for their willingness to engage constructively over the past months and to act based on shareholder feedback. We invested in WillScot because of its differentiated leadership in the industry and we are confident in its path forward.”
