VivoPower PLC (NASDAQ:VIVO, FRA:51J) announced that it has appointed Syed Muhammad Nouman as Group Finance Director.
Nouman will also serve as the company's Principal Financial Officer and Principal Accounting Officer for US Securities and Exchange Commission reporting purposes, following ratification by VivoPower's Audit Committee.
Nouman is a Fellow Chartered Accountant (FCA) with more than 17 years of global finance and accounting leadership experience. He began his career at PwC and has held senior finance roles across the oil and gas, real estate, automation engineering and hospitality sectors.
VivoPower said Nouman brings experience in audit and risk management, IFRS and US GAAP reporting, mergers and acquisitions, commercial finance, real estate investment and development, and global tax management.
The company stated that his appointment is intended to strengthen its finance and accounting function as it expands its sovereign AI data center infrastructure business and advances the planned business combination of its Tembo subsidiary toward an independent listing.
In his new role, Nouman will oversee group financial control, statutory reporting, public company reporting and audit readiness, financial planning, working capital management, and support for corporate development initiatives including mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, capital raising and transaction execution.
"We are pleased to welcome Nouman to VivoPower as Group Finance Director," the company’s CEO Kevin Chin said in a statement.
"His depth of experience across audit, financial reporting and multinational finance leadership, combined with his track record in mergers and acquisitions and complex, multi-jurisdictional operations, is exactly what we need as we scale our sovereign AI data center infrastructure business and progress the business combination of our Tembo subsidiary."
