The Green Bay Packers will go deeper into their financials with thousands of its stockholders on hand for its annual meeting Monday morning.
The meeting will kick off at 11 a.m. inside the stadium bowl as team officials go through topics like the team, its public relations efforts, and its financials. Some of the key numbers were already released, with the Packers announcing $579 million in total national and local revenue. The team, as a result, had $77.7 in operating profit over the last 12 months after losing close to $39 million during its pandemic-riddled year.
The number of Packers shareholders stands at over 539,000, though only a fraction of those are expected to be in attendance for Monday's meeting. You can find more information about the soon-to-be elected members of the Board of Directors below.
From the Packers:
The Green Bay Packers will present four candidates for shareholder vote at July's Annual Meeting to join the Packers Board of Directors: Kate Burgess, Michael Daniels, Mark Rourke and Kurt Voss. Burgess is the CEO/Owner at Elevate97, a Green Bay-based branding and design business. Daniels is the President/CEO at Nicolet National Bank, which he co-founded in 2000. Rourke is the CEO and president of Schneider National, Inc., a premier provider of transportation, logistics and intermodal services. Voss is the owner and CEO of AmeriLux International, a distributor of materials used for building and construction. "We're looking forward to presenting these nominees for a vote of the shareholders," said Packers President/CEO Mark Murphy. "Each candidate brings a unique perspective and valuable experience that will be a big help to our Board. We're excited to welcome them to the organization."
The shareholders meeting also will see three members take on emeritus status: Rick Chernick (originally elected in 1998), Larry McCarren (2015) and Eric Torkelson (2019).
"We appreciate the contributions of each director during their time on the Board," Murphy said. "Rico has been a great asset during his 24-year tenure (and we've especially appreciated his unique sense of humor). Both Larry and Eric have provided valuable insight as former players and members of our community. Fortunately, Larry will continue his fine work as an employee of the organization."
