PRESIDENT & CEO’S REPORT
Dear Shareholders,
It is a privilege to address you as the Interim President & CEO of The Aleut Corporation (TAC). Thomas Mack was instrumental in bringing me to TAC a little over a year ago. He led the charge in supporting the creation of Aleut Federal and although my role as President & CEO is interim, I realize Thomas left some very big shoes to fill. I will work diligently to keep the seat warm and look forward to working with The Aleut Corporation Board Directors and all of the subsidiaries to advance the success of this dynamic family of companies. I embrace the mission of TAC in this transition, “to maximize dividends and opportunities for our shareholders.”
I’ve lived in Alaska for 20 years and raised a family here. Once our 4 boys were grown, it was time for my wife and I to stick our toes in the waters of the Lower 48, so we moved to DC/ Virginia a little over 3 years ago. My past professional experience includes senior leadership roles in both Alaska Native corporations and other large private sector companies. I will utilize all those experiences to further the goals of the TAC Board of Directors and shareholders.
We have some challenges ahead of us, but they can be overcome. We are embracing the future as the Board and the management team align to meet our future mission, vision, and goals.
I look forward to serving all of our stakeholders in this important role.
Sincerely,
Martin Hanofee
Interim President & CEO
