Rhea-AI Summary

Simpson Oil, holding 19.8% of Parkland 's shares, has announced its intention to nominate nine new directors to Parkland's Board at the 2025 Annual General Meeting on May 6. This move comes after highlighting Parkland's significant underperformance, with total shareholder return reportedly underperforming peers by 95.7% since 2019.

The nominees include notable executives such as Monty Baker (former PwC Partner), Mark Davis (former Chemtrade Logistics CEO), and Karen Stuckey (former Walmart SVP and current Gildan Activewear director). Simpson Oil claims their previous attempts at constructive engagement, including securing two board seats in 2023, were met with exclusion from key discussions.

The company has launched www.RefuelParkland.com to detail their case for change and plans for value creation. Simpson Oil criticizes the current board for poor management oversight, succession planning, and what they describe as an undisciplined M&A strategy with poor integrations.
