TOKYO, September 3, 2021 – PHC Holdings Corporation (headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, Japan, President & CEO: John Marotta, hereafter PHCHD), a leading global life science, diagnostics and medical device company, has today announced the appointment of William (Bill) Donnelly and Ivan Tornos as independent external directors, effective September 3, 2021. Both bring significant expertise and executive-level experience at global medical device and life sciences companies.

Mr. Donnelly joins the board with almost 25 years’ experience in the laboratory equipment industry. Mr. Donnelly was most recently the Executive Vice President responsible for Finance, Supply Chain, Manufacturing and IT for Mettler-Toledo.

Prior to this he was Chief Financial Officer at Elsag Bailey Process Automation, a market leader in industrial instrumentation and systems for the process control industry. He started his career working as an auditor for Price Waterhouse for 10 years. He is currently an Independent Director of Ingersoll Rand and PST, as well as the Board Chair for John Carroll University.

Mr. Tornos joins the board with almost 25 years’ experience in the medical device industry. Mr. Tornos is currently the Chief Operating Officer at Zimmer Biomet, responsible for overseeing all global businesses and leading the global operations, clinical and medical education, and global R&D functions. Mr. Tornos joined Zimmer Biomet in 2018 as Group President, Orthopedics and was later Group President, Global Businesses and the Americas, before becoming COO earlier this year. Prior to joining Zimmer Biomet, Mr. Tornos was Worldwide President of the Global Urology Group, Medical, and Critical Care Divisions at Becton Dickinson Interventional. He has also held global senior leadership positions in commercial, business development and operations for Covidien International, Baxter International, Johnson & Johnson and Bausch & Lomb.

John Marotta, President, CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors for PHCHD said, "I am thrilled to have Bill and Ivan join the PHC Holdings Board of Directors. These are two exceptional industry leaders who will add vast experience and capabilities to our board. We are a global company and have set out to add individuals to our board who have deep expertise and diverse perspectives that can help with all aspects of our business. Bill and Ivan’s industry knowledge and strategic guidance will be immensely valuable to the future success of the PHC Group."

Hiro Hirano, Co-Head of Private Equity for KKR Asia and CEO of KKR Japan Limited, and member of the Board of Directors for PHCHD, added, "We are excited about the addition of Bill and Ivan to the PHC Holdings Board of Directors.
