Procore signs multi-year strategic collaboration agreement with AWS
In a recent filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Quest Resource Holding Corp (NASDAQ:QRHC), currently valued at $48.6 million and trading significantly below its InvestingPro Fair Value, disclosed a Cooperation Agreement with the Wynnefield Group, leading to changes in the company’s board structure. The company’s stock has faced challenges, declining over 70% in the past six months. The agreement, effective Wednesday, May 7, 2025, will expand the board from six to seven directors. Robert Lipstein has been appointed as a new Class III director, with his term set to expire at the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders. This board restructuring comes at a crucial time, as InvestingPro data shows the company operating with a significant debt burden and rapidly burning through cash, though maintaining a healthy current ratio of 1.69.
The Cooperation Agreement stipulates that if Lipstein is unable to serve and the Wynnefield Group maintains a minimum ownership threshold, both parties will collaborate to identify a suitable replacement. This replacement will be subject to the board’s and the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee’s approval and must be acceptable to the Wynnefield Group.
Additionally, the agreement includes voting commitments, standstill provisions, and mutual non-disparagement clauses, effective until thirty days before the deadline for stockholder nominations for the 2027 annual meeting. This period may extend to the 2028 annual meeting if certain conditions are met.
Lipstein will also join the Audit Committee and receive compensation according to the company’s standard program for non-employee directors, as detailed in Quest Resource’s annual report filed on March 12, 2025. He will enter into the company’s standard indemnification agreement for directors.
The filing did not report any related party transactions between the company and Lipstein requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. The full text of the Cooperation Agreement has been filed as Exhibit 10.1 in the SEC filing.
