As President, Chairman and CEO of Everlast, my executive team and I led the transition of Everlast from a boxing company to a brand that unleashed strength and dedication in every individual. Focused on the inherent empowerment in the brand’s century old positioning, the team and I increased market cap by 188% from $61.9M to $178.5M. We increased EBITDA 82% from $7.3M to $13.3M and EPS from $.47 cents to $1.20. Over three years, Everlast recorded increased approximate annual retail sales from $250M to $600M. We bought Everlast for approximately $45M. 7 years later we sold it for approximately $192M. We delivered record financial performance by building an international team to execute the repositioned Everlast brand through the eyes of the global consumer.
